Christchurch: The Indian cricket team was about to wind up a four-hour training-cum-net session at the Lincoln University campus when a tall, confident figure sauntered into the practice area. Former India coach John Wright was greeted with warmth and affection by the team management and the cricketers.
Their reverence for the man, who had begun the process of building a potent, match-winning Indian unit, was evident. Yet, Wright wasn’t willing to take the credit for Indian cricket’s profitable turnaround and praised current coach Gary Kirsten.
“There is a lot of potential in this side. I am happy they are doing very well. You have good men in Kirsten and Paddy (Upton). And they are playing under a good captain as well,” said Wright.THE HINDU
