Team India is likely to get a completely revamped team of coaches as the head coach Ravi Shastri, bowling coach Bharat Arun, fielding coach R Sridhar have made up their mind to move on from their coaching role with the national team.
As per a report in The Indian Express, Shastri has already informed some office members of the BCCI about his decision to not look for an extension of the current tenure expiring after the completion of the T20 World Cup.
The report further suggested that the BCCI too is eager to have fresh faces in Indian backroom departments.
Shastri is on the verge of completing his second stint with the India side. First, he was appointed Director of the side in the aftermath of a disastrous Test tour of England in 2014 and the tenure had ended after the end of India’s campaign in the ICC World T20 in 2016.
Later, he was appointed as the head coach for the side of the ICC Champions Trophy where India had finished runners up losing the final against Pakistan.
The Indian team has emerged as a champion side across the world, winning two-Test series in Australia and reaching the knockout level of all the ICC tournaments they took part in. However, he could not guide India to lift ICC trophies as they lost to New Zealand both in the semi-final of the ICC ODI World Cup in 2019 and the final of the ICC World Test Championship.
