Decades ago there was only one coach per cricket team who used to take care of everything from fitness of the players to their financial status. Now we got Manager,Coach.Batting Coach,Bowling Coach, Fielding coach,Mentor,Strategic manager,Physio.Psycho, etc....etc....& the list goes on. Oh what a waste of money.
