NDTV
WV Raman and Gautam Gambhir are up against each other for the post of Team India's head coach.
As the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) intensifies its hunt for the new head coach, Gautam Gambhir and W V Raman are reportedly locked in an intense battle for the position. The Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) interviewed the two candidates for the role on Tuesday, and the second round will take place on Wednesday. While Gambhir is said to be the favourite for the job, Raman's presentation reported impressed CAC the most. Amid the tight battle for the role Rahul Dravid is set to vacate this month, Raman also shared a cryptic 2-word post that got the social media buzzing. Oh dear!!
"Oh Dear", posted Raman on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday night. What exactly the former Indian women's team coach is implying with the post, however, isn't yet known.
The interviews took place over a zoom call with Gambhir, Raman and CAC head Ashok Malhotra attending it virtually.
"Yes, Gambhir appeared for the interview with the CAC. One round of discussions happened today. There is another round expected tomorrow," a BCCI source told PTI.
