The Nawab of Nazafgarh has now been asked by the BCCI to send an elaborated resume for the job.
Apart from Sehwag, former Australian fast bowler and Sunrisers Hyderabad coach Tom Moody, Englishman Richard Pybus, former Indian cricketers Dodda Ganesh and Lalchand Rajput have applied for the job. While there has been a reported rift between Indian skipper Virat Kohli and Kumble, the legendary leggie will have to appear once again for the interview like he did last year.
BCCI’s Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) comprising legendary troika of Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar, and VVS Laxman will conduct the interviews from London.
