Bayliss will replace Anil Kumble after the former India cricketer`s contract was not renewed by Punjab Kings following a poor string of performances by the side under his guidance.
"I`m honoured to be given the head coach`s role with the Punjab Kings. A foundation franchise with an appetite for success. I look forward to working with a talented squad of players determined to compete for silverware," Bayliss said in a statement issued by the franchise.
