Chandu Borde has dismissed the talk of ‘generation gap’ when asked about cricket of his day and the cricket of today. Further, Borde has been emphatic to assert that the Indian cricketers don’t require a coach.
The statement on the irrelevance of a coach for the likes of Sachin, Dravid, Ganguly and Dhoni needs a closer look. There are two ways of looking at it. First, it is clear that the ‘superstars’ need no advice and it is they who advise the BCCI and others.
Secondly, does Borde feel that no coach can do any wonders with these players?
Does Borde intend to endear himself with the likes of Sachin so that his tenure becomes successful and non-controversial?
Without realizing, Borde has stepped into a controversy and that is not a good start to his new innings.
