Domestic stalwart Amol Muzumdar is set to become the Indian women's cricket head coach after impressing the Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) the most during the interviews of the shortlisted candidates in Mumbai on Monday. 

The CAC comprising Ashok Malhotra, Jatin Paranjpe and Sulakshana Naik found Muzumdar's 90-minute presentation most impressive. 

The others who were interviewed were former Durham coach Jon Lewis and Tushar Arothe, who had already served as India head coach before resigning in 2018.

The development comes days before the commencement of India's tour of Bangladesh. India is without a head coach since December last year when Ramesh Powar was sacked.

"The CAC was most impressed with Amol's presentation who was very clear in his plans for the women's team. The other presentations were good too, but he was by far the best. He will most likely be recommended for the job," a BCCI official said.
