India’s search for a new head coach intensifies as Rahul Dravid‘s tenure is set to conclude after the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is actively evaluating potential successors to lead the men’s national team, marking a pivotal moment for Indian cricket leadership.

Candidates in the running to succeed Rahul Dravid

Several prominent figures have emerged as contenders to fill Dravid’s shoes. Among them, Gautam Gambhir, renowned for his tactical acumen and leadership prowess both on and off the field, stands out as a frontrunner. His recent success with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has bolstered his credentials.

Gambhir, known for his strategic insights and deep understanding of the game, presented his vision for the team’s future, while Raman brought his extensive coaching experience, having previously led the Indian women’s team.
