I just watched a 20 minute video about 'who is the best coach' knowing perfectly well I am not going to get an answer at the end of it. Well played Jarrod.

Anyone who can make Pakistani team work is hands down the best coach ever!!

Great video, might be worth giving that board a proper clean and get that clear white back.

So many aspects to consider with a coach - technical coaching, inspiration of players, bringing a group together, management of the team of specialist and support coaches, management of selectors/boards, press, tactical influence... It's very likely there can never be one "best" coach because different coaches will be better at different things.

That said, to throw another name in the mix, Ryan Campbell has been outstanding with Durham in the last few years.

I think you need to show Chandrakant Pandit a little more love. Similar to what you mentioned about Greg Sheppard, Pandit won the Ranji trophy with Mumbai (strong team) then he worked with Vidharba and won them 2 consecutive and only Ranji Titles and then worked with MP and won them their maiden title as well. He is a strict disciplinarian so at a IPL he need a Gambhir as buffer to manage the stars but he's definitely a Rajni coaching legend

do coaches seem less significant if players get seperate specialist coaches doing bowling plans, bowling plans, analysts telling them what to bowl/hit and when? is the coach like a manager?

[michellefor]

When does the Australian men's team get a golf buggy driving coach?

Wow grt analysis. Jarrod the best educator abt cricket

[harishsundar]

I don't think the role of coaches in cricket is as pronounced as in football where the managers control almost everything about the team. Especially with separate batting coaches, bowling coaches, fielding coaches, and analysts, I wouldn't expect the coaches to radically impact a team's winning chances (except Baz I suppose)

[SarveshCK]

It's almost as if you've read my mind. I was just thinking about the contrast between football and cricket in this aspect. Football places far more responsibility on coaches (who are directly involved in team selection and tactics) and face the media a lot more than in cricket. Which means when a team does poorly in cricket, it comes down to the players and the captain almost invariably (unless we're talking about exceptions like WI, Pak, etc.). It's very rarely the coach! But when a team wins, the bouquets are also comfortably rested on the legacy of the players and the captain. Before thinking about who is a good coach, it's good to look at how (if at all) coaches are important to a team. The only time a coach has stood out (positively or otherwise) is when there is a very clear shift in something that directly impacts performances (identity, team chemistry, etc.)

[L.I.T.H.I.U.M]

Even though there are so many dependent variables at play here,
I think
most people would agree that
a "good team" is the main one we should try to control for.
So, how can we check coach records after controlling for the variable of "teams"?
I think the cumulative record of the coach
with different teams should take us in the right direction.
If the coach did good with team A, but bad with team B, he probably isn't a good coach
If the coach did good with all the teams he coached, he's good.
Compare the overall record of coaches who have coached multiple teams.
And you'll get your answer.
Ofc, coaches who have coached only one side/team won't qualify.
But we'll still get good enough ranking.

Much awaited video from Jarrod 🙌🙌.
Keep up the good work 😊

[prakashmahtani]

Great video, question is a coach should also be rated keeping in mind his support staff?

E.g a team with a bad injury record, if they lose. The coach can't be blamed in such a situation.

Easy job in terms of shape: Wall, Macca, Shastri, Mott and Baz
Opposite: Langer, Bayliss

[haritbhambhu]

15:25 so I guess Greg Shepherd is like a Grand coach

[matthewcammish]

We really ascribe a team's record to the captain in cricket due to the nature of the game. Traditionally a coach improves a player but the captain uses the players in the team to try and win.

[pavandhanush]

Hey Kimber its a great video, can you please let me know Duncan Fletcher, Gary Kristen were not included in the list
