Former Team Director Ravi Shastri among 57 for India coach's position

Author yuvamind

Former Team Director Ravi Shastri and chairman of selectors Sandeep Patil are the prominent names among the 57 applications India coach’s position which the BCCI has received. The BCCI has confirmed the number of applications. “At the close of the June 10, 2016, the timeline fixed for receiving applications for the position of the Head Coach of the Indian Cricket Team, BCCI has received a total of 57 applications from coaches within India and overseas,” the release stated.
“The primary scrutiny of the applications received is now being carried out by the Office of the Honorary Secretary of the BCCI, with regards to the applicants, meeting the set eligibility criteria. After this initial scrutiny, the list of candidates who meet the criteria will be processed for further consideration,” it further stated. Apart from Shastri and Patil—both accomplished India players during their time—some of the other Indian names that have applied for the top job include former seamers Venkatesh Prasad and Balwinder Singh Sandhu, and left-handed middle-order batsman of yesteryears Hrishikesh Kanitkar. Although, Shastri’s group of support staff Bharat Arun, R Sridhar and Sanjay Bangar have not applied for the chief coach’s post and probably will be waiting till BCCI comes up with the second set of recruitments on specialised coaches— namely batting, bowling and fielding.
