A former first-class cricketer, the 57-year-old represented Assam and Railways in domestic cricket, featuring in 17 first-class matches between 1994 and 2004. After hanging up his boots, he transitioned into coaching and has steadily built an impressive résumé across multiple levels of Indian cricket.
Apart from serving as the head coach of the Assam senior men’s team, Ghosh has also worked at the National Cricket Academy (NCA), coached India A and the Indian women’s team, and gained valuable experience in the Indian Premier League with Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders.

“Over the years, he has built an impressive coaching profile by working with various Indian teams across different age groups, earning recognition for his dedication and expertise.”
“Assam Cricket Association takes immense pride in this significant achievement by one of Assam’s own. His appointment is a moment of great honour for the state’s cricketing fraternity and serves as an inspiration for aspiring cricketers and coaches across the region.”
