#1 Mike Hesson

Mike Hesson has a lot of experience on the analysis front

Mike Hesson served as the coach of New Zealand Cricket for six years. His efforts took the Kiwis to the 2015 World Cup final. He was one of the most successful coaches for New Zealand. Hesson faced a lot of criticism for recommending Brendon McCullum to take up the captaincy role from Ross Taylor but the rest was history.

Hesson finds the right talent and nurtures them to materialize the domestic success at the international level. As calm as he can get, he will help to inculcate exemplary team culture. His analysis on the pre-match and post-match analysis shows has been spot-on.

Ravi Shastri had mentioned pushing Virat Kohli to number 4 in crunch games as a defensive tactic before the World Cup began. Mike Hesson, powered by his impeccable decision-making skills, can be the change that Indian Cricket Team has longed for.
