Even as SC is struggling to reform BCCI for over a yr now the Kumble episode followed by the tragic-comic coach selection process must make SC sit up and take note the kind of difficult people it is dealing with.Tragic-comic because of the entire process, the way the CAC appeared divided but failed to keep it under wraps due to the CAC-BCCI confusion on the name breaking out in the open in the media with CAC forced to finally go by Vinod Rai's diktat to announce Ravi Shastri's name.True to his word Ravi appears for sure the best man manager indeed the way he manged Vinod Rai to land as coach like a tracer bullet leaving at least Saurav licking his wounds in the process.Thus Vinod Rai who was deputed by SC to reform the process ended more like another Srinivasan taking sides pushing his agenda.On the other hand Saurav Ganguly & co. feeling let and bitter pouring down their hurt in their letter to both BCCI and Vinod Rai.The long and short of the story is BCCI is where it was in spite of SC's best efforts with its points man Vinod Rai joining the motely BCCI crowd more as one of them further intriguing the entire process instead of aiding in its reform.

Who is vnood rai that he should be appointed aas COA ? What else can you expect.
the funny part is ravi shastri has experience as a coach and vvs sachin and ganguly have zero experience as a coach ....the selectors who select indian team are those who have played cricket. so should not the coach selection be done by those who have actually done coaching?
ganguly sachin and vvs should select coach and get lost.. going beyond that and appointing zaheer and dravid is going above their authority and is contempt of supreme court

Well, this had to happen! This CAC is high profile persons who have given nothing back to cricket. All these persons have made lots & loads of money and are present only in IPL matches where they are handsomely paid. When you were asked to advise on a coach, where was the need to rope in 2 more guys? Except Ganguly others lack basic leadership qualities and how one can expect them to advise young cricketers have to perform? These persons are there only where money is there and never seen at national camps voluntarily. Earlier it was administrators & now it is so called legends who are taking BCCI for a ride.. All legendary cricketers are self made and they don't require any coaching when they are playing at the highest level! Finally there will be more number of ex-cricketers touring with playing eleven!!
Kohli has to perform with team mates in the field specially in abroad .India's test records in overseas are very poor as on date .If Team India performs, COACH will be mere spectator.
SAURAV IS A LEADER & PROVE HIMSELF ONCE AGAIN . TOTAL DRAMA OF VIRAT & RAVI IS ALL OVER NOW . WITH THE HELP OF VIRAT M RAVI TRYING TO PLAYING POLITICS IN INDIAN CRICKET. ANIL KUMBLE A YESTERYEAR'S HERO , FIGHTER & WELL AHEAD OF RAVI SHASTRI QUIT AS A COACH JUST BECAUSE OF DUO'S POLITICS. NOW SAURAV TAKE A REVANgE OF THAT .
