Harbhajan Singh wants Ashish Nehra to replace Rahul Dravid as India's T20 coach

Former cricket great Harbhajan Singh has come out with his own theory for the Indian cricket team to bounce from the crushing defeat in the hands of England in the T20 World Cup semi final, which was played in Adelaide on Thursday.

As India's performance in the knockout stages of any international tournament has come under the scanner, Harbhajan feels the team need an overhaul in the T20 format in terms of coaching and captaincy.

Speaking to India Today, the spin bowling icon said, "In the T20s, get a coach who has retired from cricket recently, someone like Ashish Nehra, and for captaincy, Hardik Pandya is my choice."

India, the country which hosts the popular T20 league IPL, looked perplexed and clueless in front of England, who decimated the men-in-blue by 10 wickets.

With 168 runs on the scoreboard to defend, the Indian bowlers failed to clinch a single English wicket as Jos Buttler and Alex Hales played their strokes mercilessly.
