I just saw this comment from some one on cricinfo and it's VERY TRUE.

Well Kapil has a obvious logic about choosing foreign coaches, Sri Lankan bowling and feilding have been going down the drain since atapattu got assigned. And the batting approach have changed too. A good coach will sense that. The England series we performed well was because it was just the transition from ford to attapatu. And the team still had the skills and training given by ford in their blood. I only see attapatu as a easy going coach, infact most sri lankan coaches are. If you look at Sri Lanka's past world cup performances in which we got into the finals, all were foreign coaches. I really dont see that SL being competitive in this WC, the most they can get is to quarters .
