I hope you enjoyed the initial fruits of your dalliance with John Buchanan, formerly the coach of Australia (and the Kolkata Knight Riders). Since Buchanan did not coach the Aussie bowlers (Johnson, Hilfenhaus, Siddle, Hauritz) or the new boy wonder batsman (Hughes) one can safely assume that he told you all he knows about how to get Katich and Ponting out. Worked out really well, didn't it? Ponting and Katich both recorded unbeaten centuries today.
Why does this man still have a job? And why are you courting him so assiduously? He was fired from coaching a team that finished at the bottom of the IPL.
I am glad to see that he is getting the ECB to foot the bill for what appears to be a nice paid vacation in England.
The former Australia coach will travel across England over the next week, meeting with coaches from England's elite programmes, as well as county mentors Chris Adams (Surrey), Peter Moores (Lancashire) and Mick Newell (Nottinghamshire). He will also spend time with England Lions before their tour match against Australia at Worcester, before presenting a proposal to David Parsons, director of England's National Performance centre in Loughborough, regarding a future role within the England set-up.Enjoy the time, ECB. It will be worth every pound you spend, I am sure....for Buchanan.
Sincerely,
Jaunty
