Cricket ki duniya main coaching ki kursi kabhi stable nahi rehti, par jab ek champion coach beech raste main saath chhod de, toh sawal toh uthenge hi. Melbourne Renegades ke fans ke liye ek badi khabar aayi hai. Unke master tactician Simon Helmot ne WBBL coach ke pad se istifa de diya hai. Ye wahi coach hain jinhone Melbourne Renegades ko unka pehla WBBL title jitaya tha. Jab contract ke do saal baki hon aur coach exit maang le, toh samajh lijiye ki parde ke peeche koi bada Gamechanger move chal raha hai.
The Inner Story: Title jeetne ke baad Alvida kyun?
Asli maajra ye hai ki Simon Helmot ab naye opportunities ki talaash main hain. Simon Helmot ka rishta Melbourne Renegades ke saath sadiyon purana hai. Unhone 2011-12 main BBL ke inaugural season main men's team ko lead kiya tha. Baad main 2021 main wo WBBL coach bane aur 2024 main team ko trophy tak pahunchaya. Is historic win ke baad unhe teen saal ka extension mila tha, lekin 2025 season main team ke fifth position par finish karne ke baad, Helmot ne apna rasta alag karne ka faisla kiya hai.
Waise Simon Helmot ka Indian connection bhi kaafi solid hai. Wo filhal IPL main Sunrisers Hyderabad ke saath jude hue hain, jahan wo Dan Vettori ke assistant ke taur par kaam kar rahe hain. Unka track record global leagues main kamaal ka raha hai, chahe wo CPL ho ya BBL. Unki exit par Renegades General Manager James Rosengarten ne unhe full respect di hai aur kaha hai ki wo hamesha Renegades family ka hissa rahenge.
Wese coaching main itni instability dekh kar humein Pakistan Cricket Board ki yaad aa jati hai. Farq sirf itna hai ki Simon Helmot ne apni marzi se chhoda hai, wahan toh coaches ko aise badla jata hai jaise Babar Azam apni batting positions badalte hain. PCB ke system main toh itna pressure hai ki jitni der main coach apna bag pack karta hai, utni der main toh naya coach announce bhi ho jata hai aur phir wo bhi fail hokar ghar chala jata hai.
