The BCCI is expected to review the future of India’s coaching staff after the ongoing England tour. While assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate and bowling coach Morne Morkel are reportedly considering their future with the team, fielding coach T Dilip is likely to receive a contract extension.

Ryan ten Doeschate, Morne Morkel weighing their future

Ryan ten Doeschate and Morne Morkel joined India’s support staff under head coach Gautam Gambhir in 2024. With their current contracts nearing completion, both coaches are reportedly evaluating whether to continue in their roles due to the demanding international schedule and extended time away from home.

The BCCI is understood to be keen on retaining both coaches and is expected to hold discussions with them before making a final decision. As of now, neither the board nor the coaches have issued an official statement regarding their future.

T Dilip likely to earn extension

Unlike Ryan ten Doeschate and Morne Morkel, fielding coach T Dilip is expected to remain with the Indian team. Although there had been questions over his position following criticism of India’s fielding performances, recent reports suggest the BCCI is satisfied with his work and is likely to extend his tenure.

The board is aiming to maintain continuity in the coaching setup as India prepare for a packed international calendar. After the England tour, the team will travel to Zimbabwe for a T20I series before heading to Sri Lanka for a Test assignment.

Ryan ten Doeschate has remained actively involved throughout the England tour, regularly interacting with players and addressing the media. Morne Morkel has also continued to oversee the development of India’s pace attack.

The BCCI is expected to make a final decision on the coaching staff after discussions with the concerned members. While Ryan ten Doeschate and Morne Morkel’s futures remain uncertain, T Dilip appears set to continue as part of Gautam Gambhir’s support staff.
