Laxman likely to coach India on Ireland tour

The Hindu  

V. V. S. Laxman is likely to serve as head coach of the Indian team during the two-match series in Ireland next month. Head coach Rahul Dravid will be with the Test squad in England ahead of the series beginning with the one-off Test from July 1. “In all likelihood, Laxman will be with the T20 squad in Ireland as Dravid will be busy in England with the Test team,” a BCCI source told PTI. A similar situation arose last year when then head coach Ravi Shastri was with the Test team in England and Dravid, who was NCA head at that time, travelled with the limited-overs squad to Sri Lanka.
