The TN Cricket Advisory Committee meets to select a coach

The Tamil Nadus Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) will meet in the coming days and appoint a state coach for the next two terms.

The panel, which consists of S.Suresh (Chairman), UR Radhakrishnan and Sudha Shah, has quite a lot of work to do because the matter is complex.

The coach over the last two seasons – his contract of employment has now expired – former Tamil Nadu’s versatile D. Vasu, fair to him, has not done badly at all.

As his coach, the team made it to the finals after a devastating season in both the Vijay Hazare Day tournament and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Twenty20 in 2019-20.

And in 2020-21, the party won the Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament emphatically.

Due to Covid restrictions, the Ranji Trophy could not be held last season. According to the indications, Vasu wants to continue working. And he has the results to support him.

It can be argued that Vasu has supplied. Then again, there are several layers.

Dinesh Karthik has been an influential skipper in Tamil Nadu, carrying the elderly with him, encouraging the younger crowd, turning Tamil Nadus ’fortunes and helping the state troops regain their position on the heavyweight domestic track.

It is now common knowledge that the relationship between Vasu and Karthik is tense in nature. Communication between them on key issues is questionable.

In fact, when this author asked Karthik about the success of Tamil Nadus in the Mushtaq Ali Prize, he quickly highlighted the contributions and contributions of assistant coach R. Prasannas.

Now Prasanna is another top-notch name, and she also has the support of skipper Karthik, as several other team members have played the game with Prasanna, who understands the demands of today’s cricket that have represented the state until 2015.

When a CAC meets to select a coach, the selection can be narrow, but not easy in nature.
