After batting coach Abhishek Nair and Strength-Conditioning Coach Soham Desai, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has fired another old employee from the job. According to the news agency PTI, Rajiv Kumar, who has been massaging Indian players for a long time, has been fired. In the era of Gautam Gambhir, the period of replacement of support staff continues. Let me tell you that Rajiv was associated with Team India for more than a decade, he was also with the team on the tour of England but now he has not been given a new contract. This is the third time in the last 4 months when a staff member has been fired.
According to the report, the person present in an influential post in the board believes that the benefits of the staff staying with the team for a long time are less profitable. It has been an ideology that when the support staff is associated with the team for a long time, it develops a level of spontaneity with the players, which is not good for the team.
Ever since Gautam Gambhir has taken the post of head coach in place of Rahul Dravid, since then there has been a period of change in Team India. Batting coach Abhishek Nair has been evacuated, while fielding coach T Dileep was also fired by BCCI. However, he was called back to the England Tour. It is not yet clear whether T Dileep will continue to hold the post of Fielding Coach in the Asia Cup 2025.
