Bcci terminated abhishek nayar: A surprising news related to the Indian cricket team has come out. Actually, BCCI has taken action on a member of the team of head coach Gautam Gambhir. Eliminating suspense, let us tell you that Assistant Coach Abhishek Nair has been removed. However, the reason behind this is not clearly revealed. According to media reports, the BCCI had already told Abhishek Nair about the removal of the associate staff.

The news agency PTI quoted a BCCI source as saying in its report, “India’s recent defeat in Test cricket (against New Zealand and Australia) was churning over the allied staff, but in the BCCI, it is also felt that Nair became a scope of sacrifice in the fight between an important member of the support staff and a senior star player.”

These two veterans also decide to be out

Fielding coaches T Dilip and Strength and Conditioning Coach Soham Desai are also scheduled to be out after completing more than three years in their respective positions, as the BCCI’s new standard operation process (SOP) has limited the tenure of the collaborative staff to three years.

Please tell that Abhishek Nair became the assistant coach of Team India about 9 months ago. Head coach Gautam Gambhir himself advocated him. According to the report, there was a plan to remove Nair since Sitanshu Kotak was included in the Indian team’s associate staff as a batting coach.

A senior BCCI source told PTI on the condition of anonymity, the BCCI had held a review meeting just after the Australia tour, which was present, including Secretary Devjit Saikia and Vice President Rajiv Shukla, top officials of the board, important members associated with the Indian team and national selectors. In this meeting, a senior member from the collaborative staff expressed apprehension about Nair’s role and said that his presence is adversely affecting the dressing room. The BCCI did not take immediate action, but they brought Kotak. This was a way to edge Nair during the Champions Trophy.
