John Dyson

Former Australian opener and Sri Lanka coach John Dyson has shown keen interest to coach the Indian team.

Former right-arm pacer Ottis Gibson will take over as West Indies coach for the home series against Zimbabwe starting with a T20 match on February 28.

Former Australian Test player John Dyson has been named West Indies cricket coach, replacing temporary appointee David Moore.

A new name was added to the hunt for the post of Indian coach on Friday. South African Shukri Conrad has expressed interest in the job.

The Board is following the advice of their president Sharad Pawar of not rushing into selecting into a new coach following the Graham Ford fiasco.

Dave Nosworthy, the New Zealand 'A' and Canterbury coach whose has reportedly applied for the job of coaching the Indian cricket team, has pleaded ignorance about the news.

John Dyson, a former Sri Lanka coach, had been in talks with the Bangladesh Cricket Board to replace Dav Whatmore, but takes over as West Indies coach instead.

New Zealand cricket team's coaching void should be filled by next February, but until then the side will continue to be directed by captain Daniel Vettori.

Shivnarine Chanderpaul lashed out at the West Indies Cricket Board, saying its unreasonable questioning had adversely affected his batting.

Former World Cup-winning skipper Arjuna Ranatunga slammed Sri Lanka Cricket on Wednesday, accusing it of hiring "garbage" foreign coaches while ignoring local talent.

The search for the next Indian coach has moved into second gear. The process, which seemed to have hit a rough patch after Graham Ford turned down the offer, is back in full swing.

The next time officials of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) sit down to formalise a process to select the new Team India coach, they will have a bigger pool to choose from.

An inquiry into how BBC secured the 1995 interview with Britain's Princess Diana in which she disclosed intimate details of her failed marriage concluded on Thursday that the journalist involved had acted deceitfully. BBC set up the investigation in November following allegations from Diana's brother Charles Spencer that forged documents and "other deceit" were used to trick him to introduce Diana to journalist Martin Bashir.

Steve Smith getting bowled by Jasprit Bumrah down the leg-side with his leg-stump exposed on the third day of the second Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground brought back memories of another Australian great Greg Chappell getting bowled by Karsan Ghavri down the leg during the 1981 Melbourne Test which was also won by India.

On a day when the BCCI formally issued an advertisement to fill the vacant national head coach's post, one more name was added to the list of applicants. Richard Done, the ICC's high performance manager, became the eighth to apply for the Indian job.

While Dyson was left fuming after skipper Chris Gayle arrived late from the IPL, Flower said Kevin Pietersen and Ravi Bopara were under-prepared as they were involved in the T20 league.

There was an element of luck when India drew their first-ever series in Australia in 1981, with the surface playing a key role in helping the team defend 142 and winning the Melbourne Test. While Kapil Dev was the hero, Ghavri got the prized wicket of Greg Chappell, who ranks alongside Ricky Ponting as the greatest batsman Australia has produced since Donald Bradman.

It may have replaced a system that produced the farcical finish that saw South Africa needing to score 22 runs off one ball to beat England in a 1992 World Cup semi-final in Sydney, but the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method has been involved in its fair share of controversy as well.

Kapil Dev's heroic performance during India's 1980-81 tour of Australia is memorable, especially his decisive 5/28 spell in the third Test. Despite a hamstring injury, he led India to bowl Australia out for 83, securing a 59-run win and drawing the series. This match marked a significant milestone in Indian cricket history.

William said the deceitful way the interview was obtained had "substantially influenced" what his mother said on the air, and made "a major contribution" to the demise of his parents' relationship.
