VVS Laxman is reportedly set to be named the BCCI Director of Cricket, according to NDTV, which cites sources. The reported appointment is described as a change in Laxman’s designation within the board’s cricket leadership structure.

NDTV also says the new role places Laxman above Gautam Gambhir and Ajit Agarkar in the internal hierarchy. The reports frame the decision primarily in terms of organizational standing and management placement rather than changes to specific coaching or selection responsibilities.

Across the available accounts, there is no additional detail provided about timelines, official approval, or the scope of duties attached to the Director of Cricket role. Both pieces of coverage present the same core information—Laxman’s expected appointment and the implied shift in ranking relative to Gambhir and Agarkar.
