Team India Head Coach: The discussion about the new head coach of the Indian team, which is busy participating in the T20 World Cup 2024, has started again, as the Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) appointed by the BCCI has started the interview process for the contenders for this post.

Recent reports were that Kolkata Knight Riders mentor Gautam Gambhir is the only contender in the race to become the head coach of Team India and his interview was also done today, but now an interesting revelation has been made and the name of former Indian player WV Raman has also been included in it.

WV Raman was also interviewed along with Gautam Gambhir

According to recent media reports, on Tuesday, CAC interviewed Gautam Gambhir as well as WV Raman and now Gambhir is not the only contender.

In such a situation, Raman's claim can become a strong challenge for the former Indian opener, as he has a lot of coaching experience. Raman has coached domestic cricket and IPL along with playing at the international level. Apart from this, he has also coached the Indian team women's cricket team. On the other hand, Gambhir only has experience of the role of mentor in IPL and he has not done coaching work after retirement.

The report also states that apart from these two, a foreign name is also in the race to become the head coach of Team India, whose interview will be held on Wednesday. However, the name has not been revealed but it may be revealed soon.

A BCCI source said that Gambhir had an online interview but Raman's presentation was very impressive and detailed. The CAC is likely to interview a foreign candidate tomorrow. Gambhir has the upper hand but Raman's presentation was very impressive.

At the same time, the source also said that nothing has been decided yet about how the other members of the staff will be selected.

The board can appoint members of its own choosing or the selection will be done with the advice of the new head coach.
