zen Posted July 9, 2022 Author Share Posted July 9, 2022 1 minute ago, maniac said: i like to look at coaches at the ground level. There was a coach forgetting his name (that’s unfortunate) under whom Women’s cricket improved. Similarly Bharat Arun was one of the best coaches we had. Amre-Abhishek Nayar type retired cricketers have helped a lot of international players to find their feet back. Nehra is good but he seems to be in the Shastri mould, good acumen and a very good man manager but not sure we can judge him on 1 IPL win. Remember he was with RCB as well 2 yrs back when they failed to qualify. The names that you mentioned may have done well on some particular aspect of cricket like batting or bowling ... However, here I am talking more about the head coach or consultant to coaches esp. for LOIs As for Nehra, he could have developed now. For the head coach, I am not looking at someone who can develop cricketers (for that purpose, a team can have batting, bowling, & fielding coaches) but someone who influences strategies and tactics, along with good player management including motivation ... Like I mentioned in the OP, he should start out as the assistant head coach, while someone like Hussain, who used limited resources in England during his time, or even Morgan, who is a modern player with a track record of driving change, given a go!

zen Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) Morgan, Hussain, or Nehra, or Ideally, we need ppl who can understand where the game is heading or at least know how to win! PS if I m not wrong PK has let Kumble go. Edited September 21, 2022 by zen Link to comment

badmash Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Only ones that would get rating would be Kapil dev and dhoni - people who have actually won championships. They know how to get over the knockouts. Link to comment

A coach like Gillespie brought immense change in the ability of Ishant Sharma, he may or may not be successful with the rest but we need to try. I think apart from Kohli, no other player in the team will have ego friction with a foreign coach. Rohit isn't as adamant as Kohli. Are we still thinking of playing Rohit & Kohli in T20 for WC24? GOSH ! Link to comment

Kohli isn't going anywhere....he will play like MSD since he is superfit and bring commercial value. Rohit probably won't...but this is Indian Cricket, be ready for the worst. Link to comment

This is a cartel not a sports association serious about developing Indian cricket talent express bowling and Vijy 2 Link to comment

Look for someone from Newzealand coach pool. This tiny country with such a low population always punches above their ability and comes out with very good strategies , game plans , specific skill improvements in players. Head coach for planning , strategies NZ first & second someone from English pool . zen 1 Link to comment
Khota Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Why was Dravid ever made a coach with no prior experience was a mistake. VVS Laxman has the same issues. Link to comment
