Under Lal, Bengal made the Ranji Trophy final in 2020 after a long gap of 13 years. Moreover, in the ongoing season, they made it to the quarterfinals after notching the highest point tally of 18 with three wins on the trot.

"I have seen in some sections of the media that CAB is in the process of appointing new coaching staff in the coming season. I would like to state categorically here that this news is baseless. These rumors are unnecessary and harmful in the middle of a season when the senior Bengal team is playing good competitive cricket."

"The team is playing well. The coaching staff is doing an excellent job. CAB is very happy with the current support system around the team and any news, on the contrary, is false and baseless," he added.

Arun Lal has former Bengal off-spinner Sourasish Lahiri as his deputy. The knockout leg of the Ranji Trophy will resume post-IPL in June 2022.
