Shukla Retained As Bengal Men’s Head Coach; Tiwary, Saha, Majumdar Named Age-group Coaches
Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy: The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) has retained former India all-rounder Laxmi Ratan Shukla as head coach of the Bengal senior men’s team for the 2026‑27 domestic cricket season, while appointing former Maharashtra batter Surendra Bhave as his deputy.
The CAB had invited applications for a broader set of coaching roles on April 24, sparking speculation that Shukla’s tenure might end after Bengal were beaten in the Ranji Trophy semi-finals by eventual champions Jammu and Kashmir in Kalyani.
But the CAB confirmed his continuation on Thursday after an independent screening process was over, comprising a panel of Arun Lal, Devang Gandhi, and Kalyan Choudhury. “The evaluation was conducted strictly independently through comprehensive interviews, ensuring a fair, merit‑based and unbiased selection process,” it said in a statement.
