Morne Morkel:  The Border Gawankar Trophy is very important for Gautam Gambhir’s coaching career. Because during his coaching as a coach, Team India had to face a historic defeat against New Zealand. In such a situation, after a poor performance in the BGT series, he can be relieved from coaching. Not only him but bowling coach Mornell Morkel can also be in trouble. In such a situation, let us tell you who can become the coach if Morkel is removed from the coaching post.

Actually, Gautam Gambhir can be removed from the Test coaching post. In the Dainik Jagran report, citing sources, such claims have been made that if Team India’s performance in BGT remains poor, then Gambhir can be retained as coach only in ODIs and T20s. Talking about bowling coach Morkel, it is possible that if Team India does not perform well in the BGT series, then he can be relieved from this post, while Indian domestic team player Sairaj Bahutule can get this post in his place.

Sairaj Bahutule may take over coaching position

Let us tell you that before Morne Morkel took over the bowling position, Sairaj Bahutule played the role of interim bowling coach in the Sri Lanka tour. Not only this, he played the role of interim coach several times last year. That is, he has complete knowledge of the coaching of Team India. Also, he has a lot of experience. Apart from this, he has also played 10 matches for Team India. He has played 2 Tests and 8 ODIs, in which he has taken 3 and 2 wickets respectively. 

Sairaj Bahutule has taken a total of 837 wickets in domestic cricket so far 

 If we talk about domestic career, Sairaj Bahutule has taken a total of 837 wickets in all three formats. This former left-handed player has taken 630 wickets in 188 first-class matches at an average of 26. He has taken 197 wickets in 143 List A matches. Apart from this, he has taken 10 wickets in 12 T20 matches. Despite such a great record, he did not get many opportunities in the Indian team.
