He was a right coach of a wrong team.Had he been the coach of a disciplined team like Sri Lanka or Bangladesh,he would have worked wonders with the team.You cannot coach teams like India and Pakistan,where the player feels they are greater than the game.

Very true I think we as Indians should stop following cricket and start on other sport such as tennis or golf well we are acutally performing well. Anyways my deepest sympathy with Bob Woolmers' family

You are perfectly right Parag, no body can coach india n pakistan because spirit of the game is already dead and cremated in these 2 countries. Players are unfortunately given more importance than the game.

Re : You r true Parag, the game cricket in India n Pakistan which was symbolised as passion with true spirits till 2 decades back now has become profitable apex body whereby the players as well as the executives including its covetted post of President BCCI has become a body with filthy n selfish n self centred objectives. Politics, Esteem, Vested Interests has creeped into the grass roots of this game. Except God no one else can save the pride and spirits of this game atleast in India.

Yes boss , ur comments are right.May god give him peace.He was not a coach but the fighter .He studied cricket not from book but apply his techniques as well as from mind.
Please accept my as well as Eurostar's deepest condlences .May his soul rest in peace and give his family strenght to come out from tragedy.
