BCCI Names Subhadeep Ghosh Fielding Coach as Rawal Joins Warwickshire

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has decided to appoint Subhadeep Ghosh as the new fielding coach for the men’s national team. Ghosh, a former cricketer from Assam, will succeed T Dilip following the conclusion of the England tour. He brings extensive experience from his previous roles with India A, the India Under-19 squad, and the national women's team. This appointment is part of the ongoing restructuring under head coach Gautam Gambhir’s leadership to enhance technical support for the squad.

In a major development for the women’s game, Indian opening batter Pratika Rawal has signed with Warwickshire Bears. She will represent the side in the One-Day Cup through the end of the 2026 season. This move marks Rawal's first stint in the English domestic circuit, following her consistent performances in the Indian domestic setup. The recruitment highlights the increasing demand for Indian talent in global franchise and county leagues, providing her with vital exposure to English conditions.

These personnel moves underscore a strategic shift in Indian cricket focusing on both domestic coaching expertise and international player exposure. Ghosh’s transition to the senior men's side is seen as a reward for his successful track record with junior and women's pathways. Simultaneously, Rawal’s move to Warwickshire is expected to sharpen her skills ahead of upcoming ICC tournaments. These developments reflect the BCCI's commitment to maintaining elite standards across coaching staff and expanding opportunities for its players abroad.
