The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is likely to announce the chief coach of the Indian cricket team on Thursday.

“Our attempt is to ensure that the announcement is made Thursday on the third day of the annual conclave in Dharamsala. We expect to make an announcement in this regard by this evening,” BCCI president Anurag Thakur told the media in Dharamsala.

BCCI’s first ever four-day annual conclave is underway at the HPCA Stadium.

The three-member BCCI’s cricket advisory panel comprising Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman had interviewed the shortlisted 21 candidates.
