Getting a good coach these days is no easy matter either.
For instance, Sri Lanka had to almost agree with Marvan Attapatu until Paul Farbrace agreed to be considered. And no disrespect to him, but a country which has had Whatmore, Moody, Bayliss, Graham Ford as coaches can obviously aim higher.
Situation is such that most coaches these days look for short term stints. No one is willing to commit. Even Graham Ford didnt want to continue till World Cup 2015.
I shudder to think abt a new coach hunt and the types of candidates we ll be linked with. Better to stick to SJ and Corey Richards rather than having someone like Mark Greatbatch send us 2-3 years back. What BCB must do is boost this coaching team with a top quality batting coach, and hire a very good pace bowling coach for the Academy. And get the best out of Saqlain. Dont bring him on tour, get him to run camps.
