‘Fletcher will be successful'

London: Former England captain Mike Atherton on Thursday predicted that Duncan Fletcher's stint with the Indian cricket would be successful, just like that of his predecessor Gary Kirsten.

The former England skipper said since Fletcher would have some known faces around, he was unlikely to face any problem while doing his job.

“Kirsten is a protege of Fletcher's and India's most successful coach would have spoken highly of Fletcher's abilities, something that may have influenced the BCCI's decision.

“Already in place is another Fletcher charge, Eric Simons, the bowling coach whose tenure was extended yesterday, so ensuring that Fletcher has a friendly face when he starts in the job,” Atherton said. — PTI
