India’s newly-appointed coach Duncan Fletcher said he was excited about working with the world champions, the most high-profile job as yet of his professional career. The former Zimbabwe all-rounder, who coached England for eight years, also said his approach would be friendly rather than dictatorial, much like his predecessor Gary Kirsten. “This is new challenge for me,” said Fletcher. “It is a very exciting job, coaching the world champion team. It’s a high profile job.” Fletcher, who helped England regain the Ashes in 2005, said he was banking on his past experience.
“I have had fairly good results in the past with wins for Pakistan and Sri Lanka.”
