CHENNAI: KKR's magnificent run into the IPL final has made former India opener Gautam Gambhir the hot topic in the national team's hunt for a new head coach.
BCCI secretary Jay Shah's statement on Friday saying the board never approached any Australian for the job and that they "are focused on identifying individuals who possess a deep understanding of the Indian cricket structure and have risen through the ranks" have only added fuel to the speculation that Gambhir could be the frontrunner.
