This is really weird. We get two newspapers at home: one Hindi (Dainik Jagran) and one English (The Pioneer) and both said Graham Ford is the new coach of the Indian cricket team (I couldn’t find the Pioneer link). And today I read Graham Ford declines offer to coach Team India. So did they published the news without confirming with the team and the “coach” or the Indian Cricket management is so desperate to get a foreign coach that they are declaring him coach without his consent? Do they plan to kidnap him, considering the shady elements managing the team presently? It must be quite embarrassing for the BCCI. But then, I personally think, after the way Bob Woolmer died under mysterious circumstances, and the way criminals and betters have started influencing cricket on the Indian sub-continent, any right thinking personal will thinking twice before taking up the assignment. Incidentally, the Jamaican police made a mess of the entire investigation concerning Woolmer’s death.

The BCCI has already decided on a coach. It is just playing a game. They want to project the impression that they did the best.
Wait for rumours to start about another candidate.
Hi Ottayan.
Thanks for visiting. Yes, you are right. They’re all a part of the underground machinations of the BCCI.
thanks for ur comment.. how do the bcci ask mr.ford to give a presentation when his contract with kent is not yet over??? may be still one year is left for ford.. it’s a terrible mess up by bcci
That’s because only people who are not concerned with cricket, or have never directly played a game, are managing the board. They are only there for money or ego.
