Andrew Leipus has announced that he will be replaced by John Gloster as physiotherapist for the Indian team within a week's time, but the BCCI denied this, saying that a couple of names were up for discussion, The Indian Express reported.

"Yes," said Leipus, "my replacement is ready. I will be handing over the charge to John within the next week and then go back to Australia to start my post-graduation studies." Gloster was formerly the Bangladesh physiotherapist. He was one of two choices for the board, Leipus said. "Alex Kontouri and John were the people in mind. But since Alex was unavailable, John was the logical choice."

But SK Nair, the BCCI's secretary, said he didn't know why Leipus took names. "He is going and must have said something on the basis of the discussion we had with him.

"The office-bearers will be meeting in Kolkata over the next couple of days. We have a couple of names in mind, but we will make a decision only after discussions."
