India may get a new head coach

BCCI Secretary said that Rahul's tenure is only till June. So if he wants to apply, he is free to do so. Other members of the coaching staff, such as batting, bowling and fielding coaches, will be selected after consultation with the new coach. Shah did not rule out the possibility of a foreign coach and did not give any specific answer on the issue. The BCCI official said that we cannot decide whether the new coach will be an Indian or a foreigner. It will depend on CAC and we are an international organisation.

He indicated that the board is unlikely to consider different coaches for different formats. This formula has been adopted by boards like the England and Wales Cricket Board and even Pakistan. Shah has confirmed that the new coach will be appointed for a long term and will serve for an initial period of three years.

Shah's statement on impact player rule

Shah also expressed his opinion on the continuation of the impact player rule in the Indian Premier League and said that a decision on this will be taken after consultation with the captains and coaches. However, he stressed the importance of the rule, which allows two additional Indian players to be in the playing 11 of an IPL team. When he was asked that this rule could harm all-rounders, he insisted that this is giving a chance to two new Indian players in the IPL. He said that we will discuss with all the franchises before taking a decision on continuing the Impact Player rule. It's not permanent, but no one has reacted against the rule.
