He can't do worse than GG.   Our team has hit rock bottom already.

Bring a functional coach like Chandrakant Pandit. No more cheerleaders

Coaches don’t matter in cricket 

[figo6762]

Indian senior team cricketing culture  is to blame . Can and will never perform to potential . There will be flashes of exceptional performance but will never be consistent 

 

U 19 is more unadulterated.

Dravid was a mediocre coach.

His record shows otherwise. 

 

"India also made it to two finals and one semi-final in ICC events. As head coach, Dravid has an impressive record. During his tenure, India played 24 tests, of which they won 14 and lost seven, a success rate of 58.33 percent. Out of 53 ODIs, India won 36 and lost 14 -- a success rate of 72 percent. Plus the WCT20 title" 

 

Even his U19 record is really good.

 

The fact remains BCCI and Player sponsor unholy nexus will not let the coach dictate terms. They can only do so much.

Coaches don’t the play the game onfield . They are glorified note takers .. honestly money is weak argument in Indian cricket .. merit / based compensation in not part of ict culture .. 

 

Ict is run like a business a revenue generating product .. every player has ARR ( annual recurring revenue) ..

 

coaches don’t have an ARR .. they don’t matter .. they can indirectly influence the financial bottom line , by influencing public sentiment about the team .. and the reason why gambir won’t last just like chappel .

Yes they don't play but strategy, tactics is what makes difference in cricket along with implementation,Cummins is credit but so are australia backroom staff analyst captain can't plan for every batsman nor take care of every bowler problem or batsman technical problems

A true bakra (GOAT) coach

[mikeypbadana86]

A coach has to be a man manager and create a calm environment in dressing room. Gautham gambhir craves for attention and tries to impose himself on players. He is Indian version of Greg Chappel . He should be kicked out ASAP.

Such a clown. Keeps belaboring “As simple as that As simple as that”

 

And when asked that the team is over reliant on Bumrah (which is as obvious as it can get), avoids commenting and acts delusional.

 

It’s confirmed that the Guy just doesn’t have the f balls to drop non performing embarrassing failures like Rohit n Kohli.  Keeps saying that they have hunger and believes that  their form would change. Says that 5 months (next test?) is a long time and that they will fight back.
 

THIS GUY IS A F IDIOT AND DELUSIONAL.

 

brother ..kohli and rohit are like demigods in INDIA. it is not a joke to keep them out of the 11. still GG could keep the out of form rohit out of the 11 is itself a BIG WIN. 

 

do you KNow Kapil dev played TESTS for at least 3 more years when he never deserved to play those tests.

 

do u think gavaskar deserved to play as an ODI Batsman for INDIA- I am sure he should not have played for ODI's for INDIA except for one series against new zealand when SUNNY hit chatfield and other trundlers of new zealand.

dear even MSD played for many TESTS when he under performed as a BATSMEN. GG deserves credit for many things that he has implemented.

Rohit doesn't have anywhere near the clout kohli has.

 

Kohli and dhoni (with kumble, shastri etc as coaches) , both dropped players of bigger status than rohit when they were captain, dropping/retiring sehwag, Gambhir, dravid, Ganguly, Yuvraj, laxman, etc was never easy but they did it.

Rohit has more PR than all of them. After WT20 it went through the roof
