Incumbent India coach Duncan Fletcher's contract with the BCCI expires
after the World Cup that will conclude on March 29 and a couple of names
are already doing the rounds as who could be the possible replacements.
Team director Ravi Shastri had hinted that he will be willing to take a permanent role with the team post the World Cup. Mike Hussey's name was also mooted as a rumour, but the cricketer has ruled himself out of the running for the time being.
"Virat Kohli is the Test skipper now and he will be the ODI and T20 captain in the time to come. So he must have someone he is comfortable with and together they must work for the betterment of Indian cricket," said Jones.
"They need to come out of the mess their Test team is in, and a new aggressive captain with a new coach should help achieve that. And they have a lot of time on their hands, to pick a proper coach after the World Cup and the IPL. There is a good 3-4 months to settle down on some good choices."
