Mumbai (Thestates.news) |The Board of Control for Cricket in India (#BCCI) has firmly denied making any coaching offers to former Australian cricketers Ricky Ponting or Justin Langer. BCCI Secretary Jay Shah clarified the situation following reports quoting the Australians. “Neither I nor the BCCI have approached any former Australian cricketer with a coaching offer,” Shah stated.
Shah emphasised that the next coach for the Indian team, who will succeed Rahul Dravid, should possess a deep understanding of the Indian cricket structure. “Finding the right coach for our national team is a meticulous and thorough process. We are focused on identifying individuals who have risen through the ranks and have an in-depth knowledge of our domestic cricket framework to truly elevate Team India to the next level,” he said.
