I think this whole whiteboard thing is is getting over blown lol, sporting teams don't write their secrets and game plans on a white board, they're talked about in team meetings.
Also it's not uncommon for sporting sides to pick out 'basic fundamentals' or standards to stand by or up hold, the first step to winning is getting the basics right.
Also most of those points on the board look like targets the side has picked for themselves, I'd be more concerned if it said
Ground your bat when running or make sure you catch with two hands

Re: Zimbabwe Cricket unlikely to renew contract with Ntini
Yeah I've got no problem with the whiteboard. I write stuff on whiteboards at work just to re-inforce a certain point, not because I've unearthed some groundbreaking knowledge.
I've got no feelings one way or the other about Ntini. It seems pretty straight forward; if he's offering something to the players that Streak isn't, then he should stay - and if he isn't he probably shouldn't.

I think by put this message about Ntini , ZC is lighting a fire under Ntini so lets see if he feels some pressure & pulls up his bag of tricks & try to save his job ...brmtaylor.com admin wrote: ↑Tue Sep 26, 2017 11:14 amYeah I've got no problem with the whiteboard.

Re: Zimbabwe Cricket unlikely to renew contract with Ntini
They really should be involving Gary Brent in our coaching set up. He's respected by the players and he brings old school discipline with a hint of diplomacy that he's had to learn because he's had to deal with these ZC fuckwits and their boot-licking sycophants for so long. This idea that world class players automatically make world class coaches is rubbish . GB was a decent cricketer, but he's a no nonsense tough guy and he's a Zimbo.

Re: Zimbabwe Cricket unlikely to renew contract with Ntini
So you don't rate Heath Streak?
NB: GB must apply, be interviwed and win. AC gave Grant a job, then later DH gave Butcher the big job. That must stop. Can work for non-international sides, but not at international level. I hope whatever you're proposing takes into consideration due process. As a short-term consultant, then why not. Admin have discretion to do that.
