Boycott wants Wright to replace Fletcher

8220;My preferred option for Fletcher8217;s successor would be John Wright, the former New Zealand batsman who helped India learn how to win Test matches overseas,8221; he said.

8220;He Wright is a firm hand in a soft glove and I know he would be interested,8221; the Yorkshire great wrote in a column for Daily Telegraph.

Boycott said after the Ashes fiasco, Fletcher should do the honourable thing by stepping down after the World Cup. 8220;This tour has been a shambles from first to last and it is about time that certain people admitted that. The first thing I want to see is the coach, Duncan Fletcher, taking responsibility for his mistakes and announcing that he will retire after the World Cup.8221;

Boycott, who has been demanding Fletcher8217;s ouster ever since the team8217;s Champions Trophy debacle, also suggested the team should have separate Test and one-day coaches.

8220;The other idea England should consider is splitting the job in half, so that they have one coach for the Test team and one for one-day Internationals. It would be revolutionary, but you should never disparage an idea just because nobody else has tried it.8221;

The cricketer-turned commentator named current Sri Lanka coach Tom Moody and former Australian batsman Dean Jones as possible one-day coaches.
