When Chappell had the guts to tell that Sourav should not be captaining the Indian side and axed him from the side, why on earth he kept quite without making public that he is not happy with the team composition ?
First of all , people should make the role of a coach clear. He is like a lecturer who transfer his knowledge to the students he is provided with. Never on earth the lecturer can claim that he will choose the students he wanted to teach. It is ridiculous. His job is just to coach the players provided to him by the selection commitee and it is up to the board to decide whether he doing the role correctly or not.
In my opinion , he successfully transformed a 'winning team' to a 'nothing team' in his tenure of 18 months. It's not too late now. Send this stupid Aussie back to his hometown and choose some technically equipped Indian bowling coach (may be Venkatesh Prasad) and Indian batting coach (may be Manjrekar) to coach the young players coming in. The bottom line is the coach should be accessible and player friendly rather than having a Policman sort of attitude and I feel only ex-Indian players will know player attitude better. There is no need for the foreign coach to do strategy or team plan or whatever.
Shane Warne is aboslutely right in his statement - "International Players Don't Need a Coach"
