My point is sometimes even with the best coaches we wont see improvement, unless and until the players have the intent to learn and improve. I bet none of you would want Kalpage as our fielding coach or Ramanayake (Again) as our bowling coach. But see how disciplined Sri Lanka's pace attack is. Even their all rounders have more skill, variety and consistency than our front line bowlers.

So while i am not praising or supporting SJ and JS, all i am saying sometimes it is very easy to blame coaches and make them scapegoats. But are our guys working hard enough or learning, or are they even interested? A couple of days ago there was an interview of A Team coach Stuart Barnes who also made the same point. Guys have plenty of talent and ability but they just dont seem to be interested to learn and grow-they seem happy with 50's and 60's. They cannot become world class cricketers if they dont have the desire and ambition.
Interesting observation..but how we can change our genes over night...i wish we had Aladdin cherag to make it happen to our players to our people to the administrator to the management...that will be long term planning and also you are talking about BD cricket management's long term planning!!! As it is not a possiblility we want dynamic coaches who can spoon feed our players and bring out everything from them...same way we used to need to go to good teachers who used to bring the best results from the students during our early days in BD. Even nowadays so many students get perfect As with the help of good teacher (I am not talking about talents who are exceptions rather I am not about the average people)
