John Wright has hinted that he may not reapply to be coach of India when his contract expires at the end of May after the home series against Pakistan. Wright, 50, has not yet discussed his future with the Indian board.
"I assume the next contract will be till the 2007 World Cup," said Wright, a former captain of New Zealand. "I don't think I am ready to commit myself till then," Wright, the former New Zealand captain, told BBC Sport. But he added: "There is always a lot of speculation about what will happen in the future.
Wright first took charge of India in November 2000, when he became the country's first foreign coach, following four seasons at Kent. In the 49 Tests that he has been coach, India have won 20 matches, lost 14 and drawn 15. This included overhauling Pakistan as visitors last year, and managing a 1-1 draw on Australian soil in 2003-04. India have won 66 of the 124 one-day internationals played under Wright and lost 52.
