Middlesex Director of Cricket John Emburey has said he was not interested in becoming India coach despite being interviewed for the job last week. Kent’s South African Director of Cricket Graham Ford turned the job down on Monday but Emburey said it had not been offered to him.
In a statement on Tuesday on their website, Middlesex said: ‘’Following Gr-aham Ford’s rejection of the offer to become India coach, there has been much press speculation about John Emburey’s position as the other candidate.
‘’In response to this speculation, John met with Vinny Codrington, the chi-ef executive of Middlesex, and told him that he does not want to leave Middlesex and wishes to continue as director of cricket.
‘’John would like to emphasise that at no point was he offered the role as India coach and would like to thank the BCCI for the opportunity to interview for the position.’’
