The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) says it is inviting applications again for the post of Head of Sports Science and Medicine at its Centre of Excellence (CoE) facility in Bengaluru. The board describes the role as highly specialized and says finding an ideal candidate for the position is proving difficult.

The reports state that BCCI has reopened applications following its earlier attempts to fill the high-profile job. NDTV characterizes the search as “very rare” in the world, emphasizing the scarcity of suitable expertise for the post. Other details about candidate requirements or the reasons for delays are not specified in the provided coverage.

Overall, the outlets agree on the same core point: BCCI is actively seeking applicants once more to staff the CoE leadership role focused on sports science and medical support, while the broader context of why the position remains unfilled is treated as a matter of candidate scarcity.
