Although former Ireland and West Indies coach Phil Simmons, who was also in the running, did not appear in the interview, either in person, or via video call, as he was unavailable, according to former India skipper Ganguly.

“We will hold on for time being for the announcement of the coach. We feel there is no hurry at the moment,” said Ganguly. “We need to talk to a few people, especially the captain (Virat Kohli).”
