As the players are involved in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) are making sure that they leave no stone unturned in making sure that they strengthen the support staff, including coaches and other management even at their Centre of Excellence (CoE).
The governing body is now looking to add a coach for spin bowling, considering how the team struggled to get going against spinners in the last home season.
Sunil Joshi attended the interview online in front of a three-member panel
Sunil Joshi has been one of the best spinners who played for the India National Cricket Team. He played 15 Tests and 69 ODIs for India between 1996 and 2002, is currently working with Ricky Ponting in the Punjab Kings team, and has also coached Uttar Pradesh during the domestic season. He is the most accomplished name on the list.
Along with him, left-arm spinner Rakesh Dhruv of Gujarat and Saurashtra, Vidarbha's long-time off-break bowler Pritam Gandhe, Bengal off-spinner Saurashis Lahiri, and India U-19 women's head coach Nooshin Al Khadeer Nooshin were also interviewed.
Sunil Joshi has the best CV out of all the other candidates - BCCI source
"Obviously, Sunil Joshi has the best CV out of all the other candidates. In the case of Nooshin, the BCCI is also going to have an elaborate women’s wing with dedicated staff for international, national and domestic age-group women’s cricketers.
"He has coached multiple first-class teams, has been a part of IPL coaching set-up and also coached senior men’s international team. And don’t forget, he is from Bengaluru, which makes a lot of sense logistically."
