As Sanjay Bangar, the former batting coach is set to replace by Vikram Rathore. But the news coming out from the sources is that on the day of support staff selections, Sanjay Bangar went and knocked on Devang’s door late in the evening and gave him and the selection committee an earful. He also warned the selector and he told him that the team would rally for him on that decision. The reports from the TOI also specifies that even BCCI is not very pleased the way Sanjay conducted himself during his tenure and there were several instances of indiscipline that have been reported to the COA chief Vinod Rai. “But that is not a decision for the selection committee to make. Right now, the board is not happy with his behavior. Too many instances have been brought to the notice of COA chief Vinod Rai,” said a source.
“The fact is that trust became an issue within the team when it came to dealing with Sanjay,” the sources continued. one of the main reasons to put an end to Bangar’s stint is that the batting position of Ms Dhoni in the world cup semi-final against New Zealand. But Sanjay Bangar has already clarified that the decision was not taken by himself alone. “There was a complete mismatch of ideas. Yet, it’s not like anyone complained against him. If answers have to be sought, it is the COA’s job. The COA will be looking into this,” the sources further added.
