Engineer applies for coaches job, mocks Kohli!

-

New Delhi, June 27: Engineer, oops not cricketer Farokh, but a mechanical engineer has applied for the post of Indian team coach’s job! In the age of social media when it’s easy to grab eyeballs with weird activities, a mechanical engineer — Upendra Nath Bramhachar­i — has applied for the post of head coach of the Indian team with an aim to “drag an arrogant Virat Kohli on right track”.

The 30-year-old Bramhachar­i, who works for a constructi­on company took this opportunit­y to apply as the email address was available on BCCI’s website.

Like millions of cricket fans in this country, he too feels that skipper Kohli is responsibl­e for Anil Kumble’s ouster.

In his hilarious CV (full of grammatica­l errors), he has stated: “After resignatio­n of legendary cricketer Mr Anil Kumble I decided to apply (sic) the post of head coach of Indian Cricket team (men’s) as I feel captain of the team India (sic), Mr Kohli doesn’t need a legend as a coach.”

The engineer was not done yet. “If the CAC select any former cricketer (as per the requiremen­t of BCCI advertisem­ent) as coach he will also be insulted by Virat (sic) outcome will be like Anil.”

Bramhachar­i then “explains” why he is the “perfect choice” to become India coach despite having no cricketing background!

“Because I can adjust with arrogant attitude and no legend can do so and slowly I will drag (sic bring) him (back) to right track and then BCCI can appoint a legend as head coach,” he argued.

While there are no marks for guessing that Bramhachar­i will not be shortliste­d for interviews but the BCCI’s increasing presence in social media has given rise to a situation where people can make fun at the expense of officebear­ers. Nearly a year and a half back when Shashank Manohar was the BCCI president, a Q & A session was organised for fans on BCCI’s official Facebook Page.

One fan asked Manohar: “Why did Katappa kill Bahubali?”

Well, Bahubali 2 had not released then and the fan thought Manohar could have an answer to his query!
