Virender Sehwag Explains Why He Prefers IPL Coaching Role Over Team India

The Indian cricket team found a new coach in the form of Gautam Gambhir after Rahul Dravid's tenure ended, with a triumphant T20 World Cup 2024 campaign. Though Gambhir doesn't have coaching experience with state or Ranji teams, he did very well while mentoring Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders in the last three years. Gambhir, however, didn't have much competition for the Team India head coach job, with only WV Raman competing with him. Many names were linked with the position left vacant by Rahul Dravid but most weren't keen. Former India star Virender Sehwag has explained why.

Meerut Mavericks continued their dominance and remained on top of the points table with another victory in the UP T20 2024 as they defeated the Kanpur Superstars by 22 runs via the DLS method. Having set a target of 106 in nine overs in the 20th game of the competition at the BRSABV Ekana Stadium the Mavericks bowled Kanpur out for 83 to clinch their sixth victory.

Arguably the greatest white-ball batter there ever has been, Virat Kohli, has often come across praises where he has been described as an 'alien'.

In fact, former India fielding coach R Sridhar revealed that he once even asked Virat if he was from 'Krypton', the mythical planet where Superman was born. Kohli, however, refused to delve into the chatter and always responded to this question with a smile.
