The new head coach of the men’s cricket team will soon be revealed. The meeting is scheduled between 2-4 pm,” source privy to BCCI told IANS.

Gambhir put up a few demands in front of the BCCI for the head coach position such as full command on the team, separate teams for white-ball and red-ball, which IANS understands that the BCCI has already accepted and is keen to appoint him for the role.

The BCCI officially invited applications for the India head coach’s post with May 27 set as the deadline.
