The Realist Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Fletcher has a soft belly that’s it. He is the most highly paid cricket coach in the world yet has presided over 3 years of horrendous overseas results. Was finished in England and ready to retire but the BCCI braintrust decided to hire the oldest man going. If he was a football coach he would have been sacked years ago. If he was a cricket coach for any other major nation he would have been sacked a while ago. He brings nothing to the table. A mute unquestioning ghost who never appears at press conferences to justify any decisions. Hi sole existence is to pick up easy pension money before retiring. Couple this with brain-dead, lethargic and negative captaincy of Dhoni and you can see why failure has become the norm and is so easily tolerated. Probably the worst combo going in world sports today. Link to comment

Lord Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm posting from my mobile can you post the entire article lord the article is Under fire coach to remain in hot seat till 2015. Actually before the departure to Dhaka Srini assured him that he'll remain coach till 2015. Okay Under-fire Duncan Fletcher to stay in hot seat till 2015 World Cup The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has extended Duncan Fletcher’s contract as the coach of the national team till the 2015 World Cup. Along with Fletcher, his support staff consisting of fielding coach Trevor Penny and bowling coach Joe Dawes, too have received similar extensions. This comes weeks after the Zimbabwean was criticised heavily by Sunil Gavaskar (who wanted the coach replaced by Rahul Dravid), and days after Gavaskar was made the BCCI’s chief for the IPL. “We have extended Fletcher’s contract till the 2015 World Cup,†a top BCCI official told The Indian Express. “The BCCI assessed all possibilities and came to conclusion that it won’t be right to have a new coach at the moment. Fletcher has been with the team for last three years and it will be best if he is continues for another year. “We can’t afford to have new coach at the moment especially with a series like England and Australia to come later this year,†the source added. The foreign contingent in the Indian team, meanwhile, will also receive their fees in Indian rupees from now on. “Earlier they were paid in US dollars. We don’t want to sign contracts in dollars due to the constant fluctuations of the rupee. Just like it was during the IPL auction where all contracts were signed in rupees,†the official added. Srinivasan’s assurance It is learnt that in his meeting with the then BCCI president N Srinivasan, just days before the team’s departure for the ongoing World T20, Fletcher was told not to worry about his future with the Indian team. It is said that there was an assurance given by the BCCI president with the added message to focus on the job at hand. Under Fletcher’s rule, India had lost their last four Test series’ away from home (England, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand) and also their last three ODI series’ (South Africa, New Zealand and the Asia Cup). But despite these losses, BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel had been quoted as saying that the Indian cricket board was unanimous in its choice for India coach. “Let me set the record straight. Duncan Fletcher has the wholehearted backing and support of BCCI. There has been no discussion on his removal. We told him that we have a lot of faith in his coaching abilities and he should not be worried about anything else,†BCCI secretary Patel had said few weeks ago. India are currently on a four-match winning streak in the World T20 and have reached their first semi-final in the tournament since 2007. http://indianexpress.com/article/sports/cricket/under-fire-duncan-fletcher-to-stay-in-hot-seat-till-2015-world-cup/ Link to comment

ThePhenomenal1 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 BCCI thick headed or what? duncan donuts and dawes have done nothing. if anything, trevor penny seems to have actually done some work. so india scared of having a new coach when the coach for past 3 years has done NOTHING overseas? dont get it. have they seen australia?! Anyway, we can win overseas by removing dhoni as player and skipper in tests. Do that and this team can be free - regardless of coach Link to comment
