Postscript
After the New Zealand tripcoach Rohan Kanhai reported to the Board
that certain team members were not respecting his position and had verbally
abused him in public. The Board’s response was to take action against him
rather than deal with the players concerned, and he was replaced with Andy
Roberts as coach for the home series against Australia.
But there are two sides to every story.Relationships
with coach Rohan Kanhai had been breaking down. Already worn down by two
exhausting tours in quick succession, the players were unhappy with Kanhai’s
demands, finding his attempts to instill discipline in their training and
on-field performances beyond them. As coach he was unable to stiffen the
team’s resolve in the way he had been able to when captain.
