During his stint as coach, he oversaw two famous Test series wins in Australia and was also at the helm when India took a 2-1 lead in England last year.
However, the fifth Test of the series was postponed by a year due to a COVID-19 outbreak in the Indian camp and will be played at Edgbaston in Birmingham from July 1-5.
