BCCI has invited applications for a total of several important posts.

All positions will be based at the BCCI Center of Excellence in Bengaluru. Last date for submission of application is 27 February 5 pm (India time).

BCCI Secretary Debjit Saikia said that the preliminary selection will be done after reading the applications. Eligible candidates may then be called for personal interview or further evaluation as required. The whole process will be done as per BCCI’s own policy.

The Batting Coaches will be responsible for improving the batting skills of the senior national teams, India ‘A’, under-age teams and state organization cricketers. They will work closely with the Head Cricket Coach and conduct specific batting programmes, setting performance targets and monitoring. Also coordinate with national coaches, selectors and sports science team.

Fast bowling coaches will work on technical, tactical and physical development of pacers. Fielding coaches will be responsible for improving the fitness, catching and throwing skills of the players. Performance analysts, on the other hand, analyze match and practice data to help the coaching and medical team make strategic decisions. With this recruitment process, Indian cricket is expected to stand on a firmer footing in the future.
