Is there a role for a coach ? - ketchim - 05-03-2016

including T20 ..

Paddy Upton' gaze is direct.

Upton became prominent when, as assistant to Gary Kirsten :

he helped India win the 2011 World Cup

and also climb to the World No. 1 Test ranking !

Nice read

The challenge is different. For me the philosophy stays the same,

but the application of the philosophy is different.

So they practise their skills a lot, and, yet it is their decision-making under pressure

that we are actually counting on.

We don't really give people that much experience and opportunity around making decisions,

because when they make the first mistake, we withdraw that privilege from them.

So I want players to make decisions.

I want them to think.

I want them to come up with ideas and actually get used to making decisions for themselves.
