Zaheer KhanAlthough Team India is performing well in the T20 World Cup 2026, but one such problem is becoming bigger in front of it, due to which it may suffer a lot of loss. The problem is their fast bowlers whose form and fitness do not support them. Apart from Jasprit Bumrah, India currently does not have any fast bowler who can replace this player in future. This is the reason why BCCI has now sought the help of former fast bowler Zaheer Khan to deal with this problem.
BCCI gave big responsibility to Zaheer Khan
BCCI has given a big responsibility to Zaheer Khan. If reports are to be believed, a special training camp is going to be organized at the Center of Excellence in Bengaluru this month. The country’s top fast bowlers will come to this training camp and Zaheer Khan will train them. Let us tell you that at present there is no fast bowling coach in the Center of Excellence. This position has been vacant since the retirement of Troy Cooley. Now Zaheer Khan is going to achieve this position.
Zaheer is interested in coaching
CoE cricket head VVS Laxman wants to see Zaheer Khan in this role. Besides, Zaheer Khan also has a lot of interest in coaching. He was also associated with Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Supergiants but now he wants to give new fast bowlers to Team India. Indian cricket will definitely benefit from the arrival of Zaheer Khan because this player has performed amazingly in his international career and has been one of the best fast bowlers in the country.
Zaheer Khan’s international career
47 year old Zaheer Khan took 311 wickets in 92 test matches for India. Apart from this, he took 282 wickets in 200 ODIs. This player also took 17 T20 wickets for India. Even in IPL, Zaheer Khan took 102 wickets in 100 matches. It is clear that Zaheer Khan has a lot of experience and now BCCI wants to take advantage of this.
