Australia cricket coach Andrew McDonald has signed a new deal to extend his tenure until the end of 2027.
McDonald took over the head coaching role in 2022 as successor to Justin Langer, with the 43-year-old finding success in multiple formats since taking on the job.
A four-time Test representative for his nation, McDonald helped lead Australia to the 2021-23 World Test Championship as well as the Cricket World Cup in India last year.
"I am very fortunate to have an exceptional group of leaders, players, coaches and staff who are fully invested in the ongoing well-being, success and development of this group," McDonald said.
"The professionalism, commitment and experience of my fellow coaches and the wider staff have ensured the journey has been extremely successful but just as importantly created a culture of unity, trust and inclusivity.
"International cricket has many challenges for all teams and I am particularly proud how the group, players and staff, across all formats have navigated those together."
McDonald has held prior coaching roles with Victoria, the Melbourne Renegades, Rajasthan Royals and Leicestershire, with his first position starting with the latter in 2016 following a 17-year playing career.
Australia are scheduled to face Pakistan in six white-ball matches from November 4 before a five-Test series against India shortly after through summer.
An Ashes series is scheduled for next summer as Australia look to retain the urn for a decade-long period.
