Interesting to see the focus on data with the performance analyst role. Modern cricket is driven by analytics. Hope they use this to identify hidden talents from smaller towns and not just rely on traditional scouting networks.

Glad to see one dedicated position for a female fielding coach! It's a step in the right direction for women's cricket. But why only one? The women's game is growing rapidly and needs equal infrastructure and coaching support.

Three fast bowling coaches? Excellent! We finally have the resources to build a genuine pace battery for all conditions. Managing workloads is key. Hope they look beyond IPL stars and nurture raw pace from the grassroots.

The application deadline is two years away? 2026? That seems like an incredibly long lead time. Is this planning for the next World Cup cycle, or is there a typo in the article? Process should be more agile.

Fielding has been our weak link for too long. Four dedicated coaches for it is a welcome move. Catches win matches, yaar! Hope they bring in some innovative drills and not just the usual routines.

We welcome thoughtful discussions from our readers. Please keep comments respectful and on-topic.
