Currently, VVS Laxman heads the National Cricket Academy, and is an important institution for the development of young Indian players and rehabilitation of Indian international cricketers. However, Laxman is likely to leave his job, and in all probability, Vikram Rathour, who has just left the Indian batting coach job, will take over as the leader of NCA.
