New Delhi: The Committee of Administrators (COA) are scheduled to meet on Friday to discuss a host of issues including the implementation of Lodha Committee Reforms in state associations, the pending case in Supreme Court filed by the state associations. It has been learnt from sources that ICC‘s revenue model may aslo come up for discussion although nothing concrete has been decided on that front. “The BCCI is still talking to the member nations and we are hopeful that we will find a solution that will be beneficial for the board,” a top BCCI source told PTI on Thursday. Kumble likely to be elevated to Team Director’s role; may quit position of coach
At this point of time, one of the primary task for the COA is to ensure that state units follow the Memorandum of Associations (MOA) which most units are yet to adopt formally. The COA will be meeting the legal team to discuss on the Supreme Coirt hearing dated on March 20. Thursday’s meeting will mostly remain confined to administrative agenda as the cricket related discussions will only happen on meeting scheduled on March 22 and 23. Meanwhile, in a major rejig, Team India head coach Anil Kumble may step down from his position and take up the role of Team Director.
If a report from The New Indian Express is to be believed, the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2016-17 could be Kumble’s last coaching assignment. He may take up the role of Team Director as early as April 14. According to the report, Kumble met the court-appointed committee of administrators (CoA), who entrusted him with the job to file a comprehensive report on the senior, A side, junior as well as women’s teams, soon after the second Test against Australia.
