London: Israeli Guy Luzon has been appointed as the new head coach of Charlton Athletic, the English second-tier club announced.

Luzon succeeds Belgian Bob Peeters, who was sacked Sunday after a 0-1 loss at home to Brighton and Hove Albion that left Charlton in 14th place in the Championship, 10 points below the play-offs, as per reported.

Luzon becomes the fourth manager that Charlton have appointed since they were taken over by Belgian businessman Roland Duchatelet in January 2014.

“I am happy to have joined Charlton and will work as hard as I can to try and make the club successful,” Luzon told the club web site Tuesday.

Sunil Gavaskar gives his opinion of GT allrounder Rahul Tewatia

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
