Its not about the coaches but the whole dynamics of ODIs have changed a lot. 10-12 years ago, 250 was a winning a target and 300 is a sure win. That's why India's 316 chase against Pak in Dhaka (1998) stood there for a long time (AUS chased 316 same year). Then the dam broke after few years and now no score is safe.
With 2 new balls, 3 PPs + restriction on fielders on boundary, it is much easier to score. BD can score 300. In 2010 we scored 290+ against India.
