Former Indian cricket stalwarts Gautam Gambhir and W V Raman were considered for the national head coach role by the BCCI's Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) on Tuesday.

Conducted over Zoom, the interview saw Gambhir present his vision, while later Raman also shared his strategic roadmap. The CAC headed by Ashok Malhotra engaged in detailed discussions, possibly extending to a second day.
