Amol Muzumdar Appointed As Head Coach Of India Women's Cricket Team

The board's Cricket Advisory Committee comprising Sulakshana Naik, Ashok Malhotra, and Jatin Paranjape, interviewed the shortlisted applicants for the role and after thorough and thoughtful deliberation, the three-member committee unanimously recommended Muzumdar to take over the position which has been vacant since Ramesh Powar was removed back in December last year as part of a BCCI internal restructuring.

A domestic titan, Muzumdar scored over 11,000 first-class runs in 171 matches including 30 centuries during his 21-year impressive career. He also featured in over 100 List A games and 14 T20 matches. He won several Ranji Trophy titles with Mumbai and later represented Assam and Andhra Pradesh.

“I am deeply honoured and privileged to be appointed as the Head Coach of the Indian Women's Cricket Team. I thank the CAC and the BCCI for placing their trust in me and believing in my vision and the roadmap for Team India. This is a huge responsibility and I look forward to working closely with talented players and providing them with the right preparation and guidance to excel.
