Wright and India skipper Sourav Ganguly have forged a partnership that has heralded success for Indian cricket.
Ganguly, loud and vociferous, is in complete contrast to Wright.
Wright does not say much in triumph or defeat. He believes that more than the coach, it is the players who earn the victory on the field.
India reached the final of the World Cup in South Africa in 2003. It was a surprise to many. The fact that the team bonded so well during the tournament was because of the efforts of the New Zealander.
