Coaches cannot be just judged on trophy wins. They have to be judged on the template they have set for India cricket moving forward too.

I could say the tactics laid by the visionary Rajput are being used even today,like left arm swing with new ball,using left and right handed batsmen and all rounders. Likes of Dravid are just doing footnotes of his work.

 

 

You'd be wrong. This visionary was fired even by Afghans within a year.

And yet we had arguably the best year post the disastrous WC 07 under Rajput! How do Afghans firing him have anything do with India?

Little to do with Rajput then.  It was inspite of Rajput. 

[R!TTER]

So everything's in spite of the coach/man manager? Why even appoint them then? Why is Kirsten given do much credited for arguably the best Indian side ever that won at home?

Kirsten replaced Rajput within a year.

And? The team we had won in spite of him then, didn't they? If we take your argument!

I'm not sure what your argument is . Are you saying it was because of Rajput ?

Reckon Duncan Fletcher was key figure about our Limited overs rise... It all started with 2014 ODI Series win in England.

India used to be below average Touring team prior to that across formats.

You're saying Rajput's overrated right, citing a minnow team as example? Then why does that not apply to Kirsten or really any top team with a great set of players?

No one wants Dravid either,he is now unemployed.

My contention is that Rajput was not there long enough to make any judgement either way. But considering that neither BCCI nor Dhoni/seniors wanted to extend his term probably means he didn't do much

Dravid was called back by Rohit himself.

It began in the 2005-2007 period with the Yuvraj Dhoni combo.  

 

We won CB in 2007/08 .

 

Chappell may have been a terrible man manager but I think he deserves some credit and wanted to move our cricket in a different direction.

Why bring it up if it's before wt20? He had won nothing at the time or are you implying he was sought after even though he hadn't won anything?

 

If he is so great why didn't they ask him to stay after wt20.

He had been coach only for 2 years at that point in time. Also, are you suggesting that a coach is only worth it if he has won something ?

I don't rate him one way or other.Couldnt develop players nor win anything special.His only  achievement is winning the wt20 which even Rajput has done.

[MediumPacer]

He knew after this a long aus tour is coming so he ran away.
