Abhishek Nayar, Ryan ten Dochate will be India’s assistant coaches
ESPNcricinfo has learned that former South African fast bowler Morne Morkel has been asked to become India’s new bowling coach. Morkel has worked with Gambhir at Lucknow Super Giants and Durban’s Super Giants in the SA20, where Gambhir was an international consultant.
Former India and Karnataka midfielder Vinay Kumar has also been shortlisted for the role of bowling coach, but Morkel is understood to be the frontrunner.
The first task of the new coaches will be a white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, comprising three ODIs and three T20Is, starting on July 27.
Nayar, 40, played three ODIs for India and won multiple Ranji Trophy titles with Mumbai in his first-class career, which spanned more than 100 matches. Even when he was still a working player, Nayar guided Dinesh Karthik and helped him plan an international comeback. Recently, mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy praised Nayar after KKR won their first IPL title in ten seasons. Nayar also served as the head coach of the Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
As for ten-year-old Dochate, he is currently with the Los Angeles Knight Riders in the USA Major League Cricket as an assistant to head coach Phil Simmons. He also has the experience of being a hitting coach in Kent.
