Chandrakant Pandit
Former India stumper Chandrakant Pandit, who lost his Mumbai Ranji team coach's job to Sameer Dighe recently, will be the new chief coach of Vidarbha's Ranji Trophy team.
'Why I said yes'
"I had three offers -- from Kenya, Rajasthan and Vidarbha and I preferred Vidarbha. Every team has a different journey and different culture. I thought this is better," Pandit, who replaced Paras Mhambrey, told mid-day on Saturday.
Pandit, who will join his new team in the first week of August, will have a tough task to coach the team which include leg-spinner Karn Sharma (29) and Ganesh Satish (29).
Positive frame of mind
When asked about challenges, Pandit said: "Last year they failed to qualify for the Ranji knockouts by only two points. But the main thing is that their mindset needs to be changed. I would like to continue with the same approach which I had with Mumbai, Rajasthan and Maharashtra earlier."
