Now that it is out in public that Virat Kohli’s vote was one of the reasons behind Anil Kumble’s exit, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear to the 28-year-old batsman that he either needs to get the results or may have to face its wrath, according to a report by Times of India. This means that after the resignation of former captain Anil Kumble as the head coach of the Indian cricket team, the pressure to perform has increased on skipper Virat Kohli. “It has been given to understand that Kohli eventually had the veto power on the coach issue which pushed Kumble out of the team. Now that he has his way, he has to deliver as captain. Otherwise, he had it,” a top BCCI official was quoted saying in the report.

 

Anil Kumble was forced to step down despite having an impressive record as Indian cricket team’s coach due to differences with Virat Kohli. The leg-spinner made the official announcement over it on Tuesday. “Post this intimation, I was informed for the first time yesterday by the BCCI that the Captain had reservations with my ‘style’ and about my continuing as the Head Coach. I was surprised since I had always respected the role boundaries between Captain and Coach. Though the BCCI attempted to resolve the misunderstandings between the Captain and me, it was apparent that the partnership was untenable, and I, therefore, believe it is best for me to move on,” he said in his official statement.

 

Virat Kohli, on the other hand, is in West Indies with the rest of the team to take part in a five match ODI series. Apart from this, the team will also play a T20I match before leaving for Sri Lanka where it will play 3 Tests, 5 ODIs and one T20. The BCCI made it clear on Wednesday that the new coach will be announced before the Sri Lanka tour.

BCCI to invite more applications for coach's post 
 

NEW DELHI: The BCCI has decided to invite more applications for the post of Indian team's coach to give Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) a wide range of options for picking a suitable candidate. 

The cricket Board's move came following Anil Kumble's acrimonious exit from the job. 

Kumble yesterday refused extension of his contract till the West Indies tour, citing captain Virat Kohli's reservation over his 'style' of functioning. 

A top BCCI official associated with the process told PTI that another 7-10 days may be given for fresh applications so that other interested candidates with suitable qualification and stature can apply for the top job. 

"Look, when we had invited applications last time, Anil was an automatic entry. That might have prompted a lot of people from thinking that what's the need to apply when current coach is doing well and is in the mix," a senior BCCI official told PTI today. 

"Now the situation has completely changed. A lot of people will now be interested knowing it's an open field," the official added. 

When BCCI had advertised the post, the last date to send application was May 31. 

Asked about Virender Sehwag, who is considered favourite, the official said, "Sehwag's application has no relation with BCCI to call for more applications. In the end, it would be CAC which will decide on the next coach. More the options, better the choice." 
 

As of now, Sehwag, Tom Moody, Lalchand Rajput, Richard Pybus, Doda Ganesh are the applicants. 

Former Australia bowling coach Craig McDermott also had applied but it was rejected as it didn't come on time.
