Never before was Indian dressing room exposed as much as it did after the recent Champions trophy final between India and Pakistan.
The rift between Kumble and Kohli lead Kumble resign as the head coach to Team India.
BCCI has sent notification for the post of Head Coach and has given the deadline as July 9.
We know that Anil Kumble dominated Ravi Shastri last year during the interview process and became the coach.
Shastri was initially hesitant to apply for that post again but it is learnt that Sachin convinced him to apply.
Inside sources reveal that Shastri and Tendulkar are currently holidaying in England and it is on Sachin’s insistence that he has applied for the post again.
With Sachin knowing the state of affairs in dressing room, he has seen the bonding between Kohli and Ravi. This is indeed a wise decision.
The game is not yet over. Along with Shastri, we have Sehwag and Tom Moody also apply for the post.
These contestants will be interviewed by CAC committee which comprises Ganguly, Laxman and Sachin.
For sure, the fight will be between Sehwag and Shastri and who will win it has to be seen.
End of the day, it is better we have a coach who gets the best out of the team and the one who never lets India lose the fighting spirit under any circumstances.
