Re: Wright, Boon possible candidates as coach?
It's sad to see that some people still think that a coach's role is to "primarily" teach the players how to bat and bowl hence the arguments against 'laptop' coach. I don't expect Miandad to know and understand computer aided analysis but some of our fellow guppies are certainly capable and aware of how it's done.
Sir I don't believe a coach's job is to teach the players how to bat and bowl because those are skills the players should have already acquired (cf. Australia) when they break into the national team, a coach can merely highlight and polish certain weaknesses in an individual.
But ask yourself did that computer-aided analysis really help Pakistan? While I appreciate it may not be entirely Woolmer's fault, I really don't think that Pakistan progressed under Woolmer. The same mistakes (be it fielding or opening dilemma, frequent batting collapses or lack of mental toughness) were repeated day in and day out.
