Why a Sri Lankan national cricket coach wont fit the bill

Can you picture a batsman like Sanath Jayasuriya or Mahela Jayawardene taking tips from Chandika Hathurusinghe? To be honest I can't see that ever happening! It not just an ego issue, it is also a practicality issue. The coach must be able to command some level of respect for successful international players to take them seriously.

Is Murali his own worst enemy?

With the talent and ability he possesses, it's a shame that negativity has become the reason Murali has become so predictable. One hopes that at the twilight of his career Murali would look back upon his youth, and look to what brought him fame and success. For a spinner of his calibre his fear of going for too many has only stalled his wicket taking ability.
