I wonder why a top class cricketing nation like I ndia needs a foreign cricket coach?

India should use her own cricketing greats to coach their own teams .

Really many of Indias top cricketers would be of very great assistance to countries like Sri Lanka.and New Zealand too!

    India has top class 'individual' performers but they rarely play well as a team. If the batting clicks, the bowlers fail and vice versa. Rarely does it happen that the batting as well as the bowling clicks in the same match and that is when India manages to win matches.

    This is where the foreign coaches come in. Foreign teams rely on teamwork even if they don't have great individual players. Look at New Zealand for example. For many years, they don't have stars in their team and most of their team was made of bits and pieces player (what i mean is that their batting averages would come nowhere close to Indian players' averages). Inspite of that, they managed to be lot more consistent than the Indian team.

    This is why India needs a foreign coach. To make the big stars understand the importance of working in a team!

    Further, a great bowler/batsmen would not necessarily make a great coach! At the top level, everyone knows how to bowl or bat. What matters is tactics, strategy and team work. Indian's are too obsessed with politics to concentrate on important matters to the team.

    Indian cricket is in top class there is no doubt

    India should not appoint a international coach which he is not great than the any other Indian coach.

    otherwise is OK!

    sunil this is because they take it easy as it is their own country coach so they do not put in much of a effort anyhow they are going good without a coach
