Yes, sure, it's "IPL-era". Coaches and players are getting big bucks for short terms, but I'm sure there are enough coaches out there who wants a full time job that pays well, and with benefits. Give them those benefits that IPL don't provide.
Dilscoop, it is not entirely about the money, the BCB pay sufficient to attract coaches here, but coaches by nature of what they do, want to be able to make a difference and if they dont feel like they can do that, then the money is irrelevant. The money might attract someone initially but in order to keep them here to build sustained success it requires an environment that allows the staff to utilise their expertise.
An environment where the articulated strategic plan of the organization is to deliver international success. A quick perusal of the ECB or CA strategic plan will show this, as does the plan for Cricket Ireland.
