London: Former Australian wicketkeeper Rodney Marsh believes that the Indian team’s temporary arrangement of having a manager as overall in-charge could well become the future trend in world cricket.

Marsh also said having a support staff to help the players in specific areas was probably “the way to go” in the days ahead.

“Maybe it’s no bad thing, they have a manager and support staff,” the 59-year-old Marsh said.

“It may be that we go more along the lines of the soccer set-up, where teams have a manager and coaches to assist the preparation of the team.

“John Buchanan and Duncan Fletcher did a lot of one-on-ones with coaches who prepared the players. Perhaps that’s the way it will go.”
