VVS Laxman will coach the team for the 2026 Asian Games in Japan after being appointed as the head coach of the men’s side for the tournament. The tournament starts on the 24th of September, 2026.
Former India batter VVS Laxman is all set to start his new venture as the head coach of the Indian Men’s cricket team for the 2026 Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. Laxman has been appointed for this position because the regular head coach Gautam Gambhir will remain busy with the senior team in the ODI series against the West Indies at home. Laxman has previously coached the Indian men’s team to a gold medal at the 2022 Asian Games held in Hangzhou, China. Laxman will be working with Sunil Joshi, Hrishikesh Kanitkar and Subhadeep Ghosh. The cricket game starts on the 24th of September, 2026 and India will step on the field on the 28th of September, 2026. Shreyas Iyer is set to lead the men’s squad while Harmanpreet Kaur will lead the women’s squad, coached by Amol Muzumdar.
