This could just be another media beat-up.
But if it is true that the Indian board don't want to renew John's contract, that would be highly disappointing.
John's done wonderful things for India, particularly in transforming their attitude to matches away from home.
Of course if John doesn't want to renew the contract himself (and wants to spend more time with his family), that's understandable.
Still what do you guys make of this ? And if John were to leave, who do you think should be his replacement ?
Personally, the only Indian coach that I think would be good enough to take over the national post is Roger Binny.
Roger has done several advanced coaching courses in Australia and has had success with the India u-19 and A teams.
He coached the u-19 team to World Cup Victory in 2000.
If not him, it would have to be a foreign coach like Chappell, Jones or DeVilliers.
DeVilliers would be an interesting choice.....India has long considered the appointment of a specialised bowling coach but nothing has come of it.
