The BCCI has done a U-turn on the appointments of Zaheer Khan as bowling consultant and Rahul Dravid as overseas Test batting consultant; the appointments were announced on July 11. Now, the chairman of the committee of administrators (CoA) has said those were mere recommendations that needed action from the CoA "in consultation with the head coach". Ravi Shastri, India's new head coach, meanwhile, is set to get his own support staff as that has been decided "in consultation with the head coach already".

As for Dravid and Zaheer, yet another committee has been formed, which will decide if they are needed at all, and terms of engagement if they are. The committee, comprising acting board president CK Khanna, secretary Amitabh Choudhary and CoA member Dian Edulji, will have a meeting with Shastri. The meeting will be convened by BCCI CEO Rahul Johri.

This is yet another process after farcical drama of about a month finally yielded a definitive BCCI release on July 11. It said, "The BCCI announces the appointment of Mr. Ravi Shastri as the Head Coach, Mr. Zaheer Khan as the Bowling Consultant and Mr. Rahul Dravid who will be the Overseas Batting Consultant (Test cricket) for the Indian Cricket Team." This was followed by praise for the appointees and gratitude for the cricket advisory committee (CAC), which had been tasked with identifying the new coach. The release was signed by Choudhary.

Endhi veella racha :o 

So called crappy term racha used by you is no more a synonym to frequently occurring acts here. Every business model has their pros and cons, that doesn't mean your mind should react to even tiniest change in that model. Rather dwell your inner senses and choose a path that cleanses your radical thinking mind.
