India's [ Images ] search for a new coach is expected to resume in a fortnight, according to Board of Control for Cricket in India secretary Niranjan Shah.

"We will again start looking for a coach in 10 to 15 days," Shah told rediff.com in Mumbai [ Images ], on the eve of the team's departure for the twin tour of Ireland and England [ Images ].

"We have a few meetings with the ICC [ Images ] [International Cricket Council [ Images ]], so we will be traveling a few days to London [ Images ]. Once we come back we will start the process," he added.

Asked whether the BCCI would now advertise for a new coach, Shah replied: "No, we won't. There's no need to; we will do it in our own way."

The BCCI, last month, suffered much embarrassment when former South Africa [ Images ] coach Graham Ford [ Images ] declined its offer after being interviewed for the job by a special panel. It was forced to appoint only a manager for the upcoming tours in 72-year-old former India captain and selection committee chairman Chandu Borde [ Images ].
