BCCI Appoints Ramesh Powar As India A Bowling Coach For Series Against South Africa A

Powar, who played in two Tests and 31 ODIs, will start his tenure as coach of the men's A team for the home series against South Africa A, which includes five One-Dayers and two four-day games.

Former India off-spinner Ramesh Powar has been appointed by BCCI as the bowling coach of the India A men's team. Powar's appointment comes almost a year after he was let go by the BCCI as the coach of the Indian women's team following a clash with senior player and former captain Mithali Raj, Powar, who played in two Tests and 31 ODIs, will start his tenure as coach of the men's A team for the home series against South Africa A, which includes five One-Dayers and two four-day games. The BCCI later invited applications for the head coach post. Powar was one of the candidates in the fray. WV Raman, who was the second preference on the list of CAC, was given the charge after first preference Gary Kirsten was found conflicted due to his involvement with IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore. The BCCI, though, has been involving Powar in its coaching programmes of late. The 41-year-old retired spinner was invited for an elite coaches orientation programme, organised by the NCA in Bangalore, and was the coach at the India under-19 boys' camp at Dharamshala.
