Current India head coach Rahul Dravid's term expires after the T20 World Cup in June. The BCCI, in a statement, had earlier informed that the tenure of the next coach will be over 3.5 years -- (July 1, 2024, to December 31, 2027).
Interestingly, door is still open for Dravid as Jay Shah told reporters in Mumbai that Dravid can re-apply for the top job as his tenure is ending in June.
Dravid was handed an extension after the 2023 World Cup. Under Dravid's watch, Rohit and Co. made it to the final of the 50-over World Cup last year.
