GG is not and cannot be a good coach. He is too impulsive by nature which goes against how a coach should be. This is the reason he wants SKY in test team after T20I innings, too reactive.

But one thing I don't doubt is the guy cares deeply about winning and is fairly righteous, always puts team before individual and speaks against this disease of star culture propagated by broadcasters.

He dropped himself in IPL'14 when he couldn't make runs and offered to return his salary back to owners. 

yes, he does really care about winning, but is not the best suited for coach due to his temperament

WHy didn't this clown do that before MCG test. India had a chance to win the MCG test. He completely ruined it.  He allowed tail to wag in both innings with utterly tripe captaincy. THen he failed with bat.  Also ruined unusual form of Kela by shuffling the batting order

The real plot twist will be if Rohit walks out for the toss and announces Bumrah is being rested for workload management reasons.

Rohit should have stayed back on paternity leave. That would have been better for everyone from his family to the Indian team even himself. He could have easily snuck back in the test team later on. Now his test career is over.

Imagine seeing a picture of Fatman and Dua Lipa together. It would be like a script out of an adult Japanese manga: an exploitative middle aged man and a young woman.

In context mid series it has never happened a captain leaves if there is chance to draw the series even if he is not in form.More so in current Wtc cycles i don't think most would step down.if rohit himself took the decision it will set precedent for kohli and other players we will know soon
