In my opinion, to some extent yes, because a young blood can pump up the team more. India already has talent in abundance, the only thing they require is the killer instinct to perform. What your opinion on the issue?

in my opinion it is a verry good dicision to appoint venkatesh prasad as a bowling coach.there are a lots of reason which supports the dicision like... he is one of the great fast bowler along with javagal srinath india have produced.another reason is that he knows the atmosphere of the continent very well alongwith he knows the mentality of indian youth verry well so he can be a very helpful in improving indian cricket so that it can be become number one in the world and can win world cup which is the dream of every indian either lover of cricket or not.and also there is alot of cricket talent in india what we need is to simply provide a better guideline and give give them a moral boostup as our men in blue lacks in that field only.so i think this decision can be a fruitful for indian cricket

It seems that you know the game very well. I am marking your response as the best response. Because only a real cricket lover can know all these details.

I dont think there is going to be much of a benefit from it.Indian bowlers has done very good job in carribeans and its the batting which needs some kind of trianing or something.But on top of all these things I think Indian team stronly needs a psychologist or psycho therapist rather than running,fielding,batting and bowling coaches.

yes, indeed india's batting problem is to soughted out. Otherwise, the position remains the same.

WELL I THINK WE NEEDED A BOWLING COACH BUT WE DEF. HAD BETTER OPTION.i dnt knw why they have not chosen srinath as the coach. he one of the best bowlers india has produced. i knw kapil will not like to be just the bowling coach so i think he would have been the best choice. prasad is not the person who can coach

It is the most absurd thing to do in indian cricket. It will definitely create some more controversies and ego issues which is already in abundance in indian cricket. I feel in the future the BCCI will start appointing coaches for wicket keeping, catching the ball, running between the wickets, carrying drinks, etc.

Perhaps, you are right to some extent but I guess it will be better if we discuss this issue after a few tours.
