Why Graham Ford refused to be Indian cricket coach?


Graham Ford has refused BCCI's offer to be Indian cricket coach


Graham Ford is definitely one of the world's most intelligent cricket coaches. In fact, by refusing BCCI's offer to become the Indian cricket coach, Graham Ford has reaffirmed his stature as one of cricket's best thinkers


The Indian cricket team coach's position is an invitation to a cesspool


Graham Ford obviously realized that the Indian cricket coach's positions is a dangerous one, with the pressures of the Indian media, the huge expectations from the Indian cricket loving public and the interference from the cricket board, the BCCI


Even Greg Chappell was successful in the position of Indian cricket coach for some time, despite his obvious shortcomings,but soon sunk deep inside the quagmire


The Indian cricket team needs a cricket manager, not a cricket coach


As Kapil Dev pointed out many times, the Indian cricket team needs a cricket manager and not a cricket coach. Ye, BCCI gurus, at least now, heed the words of Kapil Dev, India's most astute cricket hand, and appoint a cricket manager who will only motivate but not attempt to coach


Graham Ford has smartly evaded the offer to be Indian cricket coach, but who will be the next victim of the BCCI?

Why Ford was selected as Indian cricket coach


The secret is out, Ford has been selected as the Indian cricket coach. Have you wondered why Ford was selected as Indian cricket coach?


Here are some of Ford's qualifications which made him the best candidate for the post of Indian cricket coach


    Ford's candidature for Indian cricket coach

  • Ford is not a citizen of India. This is the most important criterion to select Ford as the Indian cricket coach

  • Ford has good experience of match fixing. I will not say more, but the Indian cricket board, BCCI,obviously thinks that Ford's experience in match fixing in Cronjegate will help his tenure in the Indian cricket team

  • Ford has not played test or one day international cricket.This is another important criteria which has resulted in Ford being selected as Indian cricket coach. The Indian cricket board is cunning enough to realize that a person like Ford who has not played International cricket has not had the opportunity made any major blunders in his cricketing career
