BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla has denied media reports suggesting Gautam Gambhir's removal as India's Test coach. Shukla stated there is no plan to replace Gambhir, calling the speculation "totally incorrect news." These reports emerged following India's recent Test series losses to South Africa and New Zealand, which have impacted their World Test Championship final prospects. BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia also refuted the claims, emphasizing the board has not initiated any changes to the coaching leadership in the Test format.
