Rahul Dravid's tenure as the head coach of the Indian team is ending after the T20 World Cup 2024. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has expedited the selection process for the appointment of a new coach for Team India. First the names of Stephen Fleming, then Ricky Ponting and Gautam Gambhir came. But now media reports say that India's legendary spin bowler Harbhajan Singh has expressed his desire to become the new coach of the Indian team. According to reports, Harbhajan says that in his view being a coach means managing the team and not teaching players how to bat or bowl.
Harbhajan expressed his desire to return to the cricket field
Harbhajan says that if he gets a chance, he would definitely like to return to the cricket field. Coaching is about managing a team, not teaching players how to drive or hit shots. Harbhajan has said that these players already know everything but only a good coach can guide them properly. Let us tell you that BCCI had announced last week that the application process for the new head coach of Team India has been started. The tenure of the new coach will start from July 1, 2024 and will last till December 31, 2027. That means the new coach will have the responsibility of preparing a good team for the 2017 ODI Cricket World Cup. The last date to apply for the post of coach is 27th May.

Let us remind you that after India's defeat in the final of the ODI Cricket World Cup last year, Rahul Dravid's tenure as coach was extended. According to BCCI, if Dravid wants to remain the coach, he will have to go through the selection process again. Dravid has made up his mind to leave the post of coach. Looking at the current situation, there are reports that apart from Harbhajan Singh, Gautam Gambhir, Stephen Fleming and Ricky Ponting have been appointed as the new head coaches of India.
