T Dilip Set to Return as India Fielding Coach, Handed One-Year Extension

T Dilip, the former fielding coach of the India Men's team, is set to return to the national setup after being offered a one-year temporary extension. He will accompany the Indian team on their tour of England next month.

Initially, Dilip's contract was set to run until May, and it was widely presumed that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) would not renew it. However, Rohit Sharma has convinced both the BCCI and Gautam Gambhir to retain Dilip as fielding coach. Ryan ten Doeschate, who was initially expected to replace him, will remain as an assistant coach.

The India A team, along with a few members of the Test squad, has arrived in England. The main Indian Test squad is set to depart from Mumbai on June 6.
