LUCKNOW: Yet another year of failure in all three formats of the game remained the highlight of the Uttar Pradesh cricket in the senior men's category this season. And it seems unlikely that the bosses of the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association will take any cognizance of this as they themselves are 'confused' as to who is running the show.
If former Team India bowling all-rounder and team's chief coach Sunil Joshi was a failure in his successive tenure, it was also the failure of UPCA's one of the directors Yudhveer Singh and former Test offie and advisor Gopal Sharma, who had promised to take good care of senior cricket in the new season.
A report of Singh's resignation after team's failure in the Ranji Trophy and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Twenty20 Trophy surfaced but only behind the curtains, and even the mid-season change in the selection panel under the leadership of former India star Praveen Kumar couldn't do much.
Only a day before the quarterfinal of the T20 Trophy, another former India cricketer and UP's one of the most successful coaches in the past Gyanendra Pandey too came into the picture as head of the senior men's cricket.
