After the coaching tenure of coach Rahul Dravid ended, BCCI has appointed former Indian team star batsman Gautam Gambhir as the head coach. The name of former African bowler Morne Morkel is coming up for the bowling coach position.



Morne Morkel has great coaching experience, he was the bowling coach of the Pakistani team in the World Cup held in India. However, after Pakistan's poor performance, he resigned from the post of Pakistani bowling coach prematurely.



According to a Cricbuzz report, Gautam Gambhir has suggested Morne Morkel's name to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for the bowling coach position. The African fast bowler has played 86 Tests, 117 ODIs and 44 T20 matches for South Africa between 2006 and 2018.

Gambhir and Morkel have a long-standing coaching relationship. Both have worked for Lucknow Super Giants for two years when Gambhir was the team's mentor and Morkel was the team's bowling coach. Even after Gambhir moved to Kolkata Knight Riders, Morkel remains the bowling coach of LSG.



Earlier also it was reported that the responsibility of bowling coach can be given to Lakshmipathy Balaji or Vinay Kumar. According to the same reports, BCCI has also turned towards Zahir Khan. However, BCCI has not yet announced its decision.
