Jai Shah said, ‘We will invite applications in the next few days. We want to choose a coach for the long term. Therefore, the appointment of the new coach will be for three years. There has not been a tradition in Indian cricket to have separate coaches for different formats. Anyway, many of our players play in all formats. But ultimately this decision has to be taken by the Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC). Whatever decision the committee takes, I will implement it.” CAC consists of Ashok Malhotra, Jatin Paranjape, and Sulakshana Naik.
Jay Shah said that the remaining coaches and support staff of Team India will be selected after consulting the head coach. The Indian team has to participate in the T20 World Cup to be held in June. When the team is playing in the West Indies and America, CAC will be selecting the new coach
