Gautam Gambhir Succeeds Rahul Dravid as Team India’s Head Coach

Gautam Gambhir has taken over the reins from Rahul Dravid as the head coach of Team India. This transition comes on the heels of Dravid’s departure following India’s T20 World Cup 2024 triumph. Having declined an extension before the ICC event, Dravid bid farewell after guiding Rohit Sharma’s squad to victory. The BCCI’s Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) recently interviewed Gambhir and WV Raman, ultimately selecting Gambhir, who also led Kolkata Knight Riders to their third IPL title this year. BCCI Secretary Jay Shah expressed confidence in Gambhir’s ability to lead, citing his deep understanding of modern cricket and extensive career achievements. India’s new coaching era under Gambhir begins with the upcoming white-ball series against Sri Lanka, signaling a fresh chapter for #TeamIndia.
