Amol Muzumdar is going to be announced soon as India's Women’s Coach
The former coach of the Rajasthan Royals, Amol Muzumdar, is set to be announced as the new coach of the Indian Women’s Cricket Team. Muzumdar, who was also approached by Baroda, will sign a two-year deal starting with the IND-W vs. BAN-W series.
The development comes days before the commencement of India’s tour of Bangladesh. India had been without a head coach since December last year, when Ramesh Powar was sacked.
As per the statement of a BCCI official, "The CAC was most impressed with Amol’s presentation, who was very clear in his plans for the women’s team. The other presentations were good too, but his was by far the best. He will most likely be recommended for the job."
Muzumdar, who was most recently the head coach of the Mumbai Ranji side and has had stints with IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals and the South African national team, was the only one who appeared for the interview in person. His first assignment will be the tour of Bangladesh, which is going to start on July 9. India will play three T20s and as many ODIs in Mirpur.
