After the ongoing five-match T20 International series against South Africa, Team India has to play a two-match T20 series against Ireland. However, India's second-class team will go on tour, whose captain can be Hardik Pandya and the responsibility of the coaching staff of this team is expected to be given to the coaches of the National Cricket Academy (NCA). VVS Laxman will head it.

 

National Cricket Academy coaches Sitanshu Kotak, Sairaj Bahutule and Munish Bali will be part of the India cricket team's support staff on their short tour of Ireland later this month. At the same time, NCA Chief VVS Laxman will be seen taking charge of this coaching staff. Team India will not have a key player on this tour, as they have to play a Test match in England in the first week of July (the rest of the last series).

 

Kotak, who has previously been a part of the India A setup, will be the batting coach, while Bali and Bahule, who were part of the victorious U-19 World Cup campaign in the Caribbean earlier this year, were assigned the duties of fielding and bowling coach respectively. Is. NCA chief Laxman will be the head coach of Team India for the two T20Is against Ireland to be held in Malahide on June 26 and June 28.

 

Head coach Rahul Dravid and other team support staff will leave for England later this week with the Test team. Because of this, Laxman, Bali, Kotak, and Bahule have been included in the coaching staff temporarily. The squad for the T20 series against Ireland is yet to be announced. In this, those players will not get a place, who are part of the Test match against England.
