The last day to apply for the role of Indian cricket team's head coach was 27th May 2024 and some reports suggest that BCCI has 'selected' Gautam Gambhir for the job.

Former left-hand batter and captain, Gambhir has recently helped Kolkata Knight Riders win their third Indian Premier League (IPL) title as Mentor of the franchise and was considered the frontrunner to replace Rahul Dravid as the new head coach of the Indian team.
