The BCCI is expected to review the current coaching setup before India's tour of Sri Lanka in August. Meanwhile, a second-string support staff led by VVS Laxman will take charge of the team for the upcoming T20I series against Zimbabwe later this month and the 2026 Asian Games in September and October.
According to a Times of India report, the coaching staff signed a two-year contract with the BCCI, with an option to extend it by one more year. However, the report claimed that one senior support staff member has already held talks with an IPL franchise that also has a global presence. Other than that, one more coach is likely to leave the Indian support staff very soon.
BCCI's Coaching Plans Under Fresh Scrutiny
The report stated that the possible departures are not directly linked to India's recent T20I defeats in Ireland and England. Instead, they are believed to stem from internal issues that have developed within the team's support staff over the past few months.
The report also claimed that some officials have questioned the decision to rest Gautam Gambhir's support staff for the Zimbabwe tour. Notably, the coaches had already received a lengthy break during IPL 2026.
Gautam Gambhir's Support Staff Has Already Seen Changes
Gautam Gambhir has already made several changes to his support staff since taking over from Rahul Dravid. He initially brought in trusted colleagues, including Abhishek Nayar and Sitanshu Kotak, to strengthen the coaching setup across formats.
The BCCI also appointed Sairaj Bahutule as the permanent spin-bowling coach. Bahutule had earlier worked with the team during the 2024 Sri Lanka tour when Morne Morkel missed the series because of a family emergency.
