The 44-year-old Ryan Ten Doeschate comes into the Indian set-up with a lot of experience. Having played white-ball cricket for the Netherlands, Doeschate also played first-class cricket around the world for teams like Essex, Tasmania and Canterbury among others.
India's new head coach Gautam Gambhir and chief selector Ajit Agarkar addressed a media briefing ahead of the team's departure to Sri Lanka for the six-match white-ball series. The new head coach also confirmed the support staff for the tour, which included two assistant coaches.
Making his international debut in 2006, ten Doeschate's unbreakable association with Essex began in 2003, after impressing Graham Gooch during a pre-season match in South Africa.
The 39-year-old took on the role prior to the 2016 season and immediately led the club back to Division One after claiming the Division Two title at the first attempt.
