Coach John Wright, whose contribution to the success of the Indian cricket team is widely acknowledged, is likely to be offered a fresh contract when his tenure ends in September.

Acknowledging that the former New Zealand captain has done a "good job" since taking over as coach of the Indian team in November 2000, Board of Control for Cricket in India president Jagmohan Dalmiya said he believes in continuity.

However, Dalmiya maintained that the decision about renewing Wright's contract would be taken by the Board's Working Committee.

"We have no idea of saying goodbye to anybody at the moment. Wright has done a good job, but it is a decision which will be taken by the Working Committee at a later stage," Dalmiya said on Thursday.

"Maybe, the Working Committee will empower the president to take a decision. We have to wait," he said, adding that a decision would be taken at an appropriate time.

The former New Zealand opener took over from Kapil Dev for the home series against Zimbabwe in 2000 and his contract was extended by a year just before the TVS Cup in Dhaka, last year.

The BCCI chief said he had separate meetings with all the members of the support staff after the historic tour of Pakistan and drew up a detailed programme for the forthcoming season.
