The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is seeking a new Head Coach for the men’s national team. Current Head Coach Rahul Dravid’s term ended after the ODI World Cup 2023 but was extended until June because of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 in the United States and West Indies.

The main role involves developing and managing a “world-class” cricket team for sustained success in all formats. The coach will lead a team of specialist coaches and support staff, define their roles and oversee their development. Enforcing disciplinary codes within the team is also a key responsibility.
Candidates should have significant cricket experience, such as playing in a minimum of 30 Test matches or 50 ODIs or having coached a full member Test-Playing Nation for at least two years.
Alternatively, three years of experience as a head coach for an Associate member, IPL team, or equivalent is acceptable. A BCCI Level 3 Certification or equivalent is required; candidates should be below 60.
