Bharat Arun (pronunciationⓘ; born 14 December 1962), is a former Indian Test cricketer and bowling coach for the India national cricket team, and the current bowling coach for the Kolkata Knight Riders.
In the semifinal of the 1986/87 Duleep Trophy he hit 149 and added 221 for the seventh wicket with W. V. Raman as South Zone chased a West total of 516 for the first innings lead.
He was part of the Indian under 19 team that toured Sri Lanka in 1979 under the captaincy of Ravi Shastri.
[3] He served as the Indian bowling coach from 2014 to 2015, then again from 16 July 2017 until the end of the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
The latter appointment was unusual as Zaheer Khan had already been announced in that position, but the new Indian coach Ravi Shastri pushed for a more experienced head bowling coach, with Khan instead taking up a role as bowling consultant.
