Having declined to renew his contract with his home state side New South Wales, he continues to play T20 cricket in the IPL and Big Bash League. For the 6th season of Indian Premier League he did double duty for Kolkata Knight Riders, taking on the role of bowling mentor in addition to his playing role.
