3 possible contenders who can be seen as the new head coach of the Indian team

The tenure of Indian men’s cricket team head coach Rahul Dravid is only till the T20 World Cup 2024 to be held in June. After this, Team India will have to search for a new coach and BCCI will soon ask for applications for this.

Dravid was made the head coach for two years in November 2021, succeeding Ravi Shastri and then his tenure was extended for a few months after the ODI World Cup played last year.

However, now there are reports that perhaps Dravid will no longer be interested in the post and hence will not even apply. In such a situation, it seems certain that Team India will get a new coach.

BCCI Secretary Jay Shah had recently announced that they will now start advertising for the new coach. He had not ruled out the possibility that the next coach could also be a foreigner. In such a situation, many names are emerging as the next head coach of the Indian cricket team.

In this article we will mention those three contenders who can be seen as the next head coach of Team India.

These 3 legends are being considered as contenders for the head coach of the Indian team.

1. VVS Laxman

The name of former Indian batsman VVS Laxman is being considered at the forefront of the race for the head coach of the Indian team. Laxman, who is currently playing the role of Head of Cricket in NCA, has been entrusted with the responsibility of coaching Team India in the absence of Rahul Dravid on several occasions and has worked a lot with the young players. Laxman has experience of playing for India in all three formats and has also played IPL.

2. Tom Moody

The second name in this list is that of former Australian veteran player Tom Moody, who has also achieved a lot of success in the field of coaching. Moody has a lot of experience in working in different leagues and has also been the head coach of the Sri Lankan team. It was under his leadership that the Sri Lankan team played the final of the ODI World Cup in 2007. Moody has expressed his desire to become the coach of Team India many times but due to different reasons he has been disappointed every time. In such a situation, if he gets a chance, he will definitely not shy away from applying.

3. Andy Flower

The name of Zimbabwean legend Andy Flower is also included in this list. After his brilliant cricket career, Flower turned to coaching and achieved a lot of success with the England cricket team. With his analytical approach and new strategies, Flower could inject new energy into the Indian team’s tactics, making him a strong candidate for the role of head coach.
