Beat India in India in Test cricket
I urge our national players, who are currently in our team and who will be in our team in future, to make the news of 'Dav Whatmore leaving for India for a better offer' as your strength and use this strength to beat India in India in a Test match
Show to the world, but more than that, prove it to yourselves that you 'deserve' a good coach like Dav Whatmore by beating Indian national team in India the next time when we are scheduled to play there (if ever we are invited by the Indian cricket board to play in India).
Prove it to yourselves that 'we may not have the money to keep a good coach like Whatmore' as the Indian board has offered double the amount we have offered to him, that we 'deserve' to have someone like Dav Whatmore as our coach - at a time when India is coached by Whatmore.
That is all I have to say.

Is India really getting Dav? I'm really confused
Dada + Dav = Bad

= Good for Bangladesh as we'll have a chance to get Dav back in a few year's time
But,
Indian board may drop Dada if he continues his bad form, like our chacha and get Dravid = wall to captain the Indian side. Then, it won't be either good or bad for Bangladesh.

Fwullah, what is your obsession with Dav all about? Is he not replaceable? Will Bangladesh cricket really keel over and die if Dav leaves? Why would we want him back in a few years? If he decides now that he wants to coach India rather than us, he can go for all I care. I wish him luck, but I don't want him back!
Being coach of a Test team is more than a job! One has to be totally committed to the team and dedicated to the the advancement of cricket in that country. That is especially true in our case, because we are not a team you coach for glamour or for money! If he doesn't have that, why are we so sad to see him go?
Dav's departure isn't the end of Bangladesh cricket and I don't think we have to beat India in India to prove that! We just have to continue improving under a new coach and one day, we'll be just as good as the other Test sides!

Come on, what's wrong with beating India in India, if Pakistan can do it with this team I am sure in few years time we would be in a better position. Lot of people said negative things when we beat India in the onedayer like, dhoni is green and should not have played in the proper India team, now when he scores a century against Pakistan the same player become an emerging star. Have faith on Tigers.

Nothing wrong with beating India in India.
But it's wrong to be dramatically emotional about something that never happened.
Blah
