We need to be patient. It hasn't yet been a year for JS.
What we can tell for sure is that he is definitely not a complete disaster like Mohsin Kamal & Co, who actually pulled Bangladesh backwards. On this basis alone, JS deserves to be given at least 4 years time - and then judge if his processes provide tangible results.
I like JS - he seems very practical and level headed. He is very aware of where we stand as an international team and is trying to go from that benchmark. His team rules, processes, etc are all based on the fact that we still are far behind than the G8 teams.
What works for teams like IND will not work for us - we cannot set a target of 300 right now. Once we are consistently making 250, then we can set a target of 275+.
We gotta learn to walk before we can run. We gotta learn to draw a test match before we can win.
