Indian women's cricket team coach Tushar Arothe yesterday resigned after his position became untenable due to alleged differences with some of the star players, who had protested against his training methods.

This is the second time during the CoA tenure that a national coach has stepped down after players' revolt. Last year, men's team head coach Anil Kumble resigned after his much-publicised differences with captain Virat Kohli. "The BCCI on Tuesday accepted India women's team coach Mr Tushar Arothe's resignation. Mr Arothe cited personal reasons behind his resignation and thanked the BCCI for giving him an opportunity to work with the Indian women's cricket team," the BCCI said in a media release.
