And there's the 'five wise men' of Indian cricket that play such a crucial role. Chandu Borde, chairman of the selection committee and his teammates, TA Sekhar from South Zone, Madan Lal from North Zone, Sanjay Jagdale from Central Zone and Ashok Malhotra from East Zone. The national selectors have had various well documented spats with coaches in the history of Indian cricket. John Wright, in his own quiet yet firm manner has managed to get the players he wanted in various squads. In some cases, Wright has made a huge difference. Take Harbhajan Singh. Impressed by the young off spinner, Wright spent a lot of time with the lad in the nets and persisted with him out in the middle. The rewards were there for all to see.
