Donald is keeen to coach Indian bowlers, as if it was his life ambition or they have any appreciation of India. I would only read it as Donald is keen to make some money :)
All the goras coming here to coach see BCCI as a fat piggy bank. This is the only place where there is money in cricket. In all the Gora lands its a 2nd, 3rd or 4th choice sport.

Saint.... Well said. His eyes are only at the fat pay check he would manage with the BCCI. Nothing beyond that....
no trust !! even if indians r ranked no.1 they cannot be trusted to maintain it for long !! i have always maintained.. its all in da attitude and indians r easily susceptible to pressures and success .. ! unlike aussies.. for whom winning is a way of life and a habit !
In this post by rediff,it is mentioned that Donald was coach of england side during 2007 T-20 world cup in SA England bowlers were hammered in that championships,especially Yuvraj hit six sixes in an over against England. So if Donald becomes our coach,our bowling will become more weak
If he has coached England in inaugral T20 world cup, then don't hire him. Yuvraj had hammered English bowlers, especially Stuart Broad for 6 sixes. Wonder what will happen to Indian bowlers... Where are Walsh or Ambrose? Bring them as coach.
