Jay Shah: Head coach Rahul Dravid's tenure ended after the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and after that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) appointed Gautam Gambhir as the new head coach. However, all the members of his support staff have not been announced yet.
The assistant coach of Team India has been announced but in the meantime BCCI secretary Jay Shah has decided to remove the coach of India and hand over this responsibility to his friend. Shah has removed him from the coaching position overnight.
Let us tell you that on the recently concluded tour against Sri Lanka, the responsibility of Team India's bowling coach was given to National Cricket Academy member Sairaj Bahutule.
However, with the end of this tour, he has now been removed from this post and he has returned to NCA.Actually, before the Sri Lanka tour, India's bowling coach was not announced and in such a situation, Bahutule was given the post. Earlier also, he was given this responsibility in the absence of Rahul Dravid and other coaching staff.
The responsibility of Team India's bowling coach is going to be given to a very close friend of head coach Gautam Gambhir and Jay Shah. Let us tell you that all the other coaches of the Indian team have been announced but the name of the bowling coach has not been announced yet.
If all the media reports are to be believed, then former South African fast bowler Morne Morkel can be given the responsibility of Team India's bowling coach. Actually, Morkel is very close to Gambhir and he also gets along well with Jay Shah. In such a situation, he can be given this responsibility.
If we talk about India's bowling, it can be announced before the Test series against Bangladesh in September.
Gambhir has also expressed his wish that Morkel should become the bowling coach and if reports are to be believed, Jay Shah has also agreed to this.
