India has to play a 3-match test series against New Zealand. Like Bangladesh, Team India would also like to clean sweep this series. If India succeeds in doing this, then no one can stop this team from securing a place in the WTC final. At the same time, even before the start of this series, a big information has come to light. It is being told that the head coach of the team has suddenly been changed. Let us know what is the matter?

Head coach of the team changed

The New Zealand Test series has not started yet and before that the news has come out that a major change has been made in the head coach of the team.

After hearing the news, even the fans are surprised as to how the head coach of the team was suddenly changed overnight.

If you are being a little serious, then know that we are not talking about Gautam Gambhir. We are talking about Mumbai Indians head coach Mark Boucher who has been removed from his post. Now his place has been taken back by Mahela Jayawardene.

Mahela Jayawardene returns

IPL 2025 is about to start but before that a mega auction is to be held. Amidst all these things, Mumbai Indians took a big decision and dismissed head coach Mark Boucher.

Before IPL 2023, Boucher became the head coach of the team. Then in 2024, Hardik Pandya was made the captain while he was his coach. There was news that his coordination with Rohit Sharma was not going well.

There was an atmosphere against Hardik and Boucher within the entire team. At the same time, now before 2025, Mumbai has again made Jayawardene the head coach. He has been the head coach of this team for 6 consecutive seasons. During his tenure from 2017 to 2022, Mumbai won 3 IPL trophies under his coaching.

Rohit Sharma will become captain again

Now that Mahela Jayawardene is going to become the head coach of the team, there is every possibility that the command of Mumbai Indians may once again go into the hands of Rohit Sharma.

Along with this, the captaincy can also be snatched from Hardik Pandya because Mumbai's performance under Hardik's captaincy in the 2023 season was very poor. Mumbai was at 10th position. In such a situation, the franchise may take such a decision.

However, now it also depends on Rohit Sharma whether he would like to become the captain of Mumbai Indians again? Because after this league, India has to play the WTC final immediately under the captaincy of Rohit and India's place is almost certain.

In such a situation, the hitman will have to take his decisions thoughtfully.
