Dhoni Has No Business To Decide Fletcher's Future, Says BCCI Official

"Also he is still the boss. We have Ravi Shastri who will look into everything, but Fletcher is the boss. It's not as if his powers or his position have been curtailed. I don?t know what you feel from the outside, but operations still remain the same. We have a few other support staff coming into the dressing room, but overall the operation remains the same," he had said.

Dhoni also said that Ravi Shatstri will merely "oversee the team's preparations" which is seen as an attempt to undermine the former India all-rounder's position in the squad.

The skipper also made it clear that he did not approve fielding coach Trevor Penney and bowling coach Joe Dawes' removal from the post.

When asked if he was happy with the timing of the changes, Dhoni had replied, "It's a bit tough on Trevor (Penney) and Joe (Dawes), especially when fielders drop catches and the fielding coach has to miss the series. But let's hope for the best. We are welcoming the new guys because that is very important. They will be part of the dressing-room family as of now. We will have to give them some time to adjust to how we operate, and see what kind of input they bring to the table."
