May be, may be not.

Apart from his decision making at the field, i am not impressed with coaching staff selection as well. We have Indian coach who acts likes cheer leader and his supporting staff are selected because they are loyalist. Bowling coach is good but others seems average. One example is Virat and Shashtri rejected Jonty Rhodes as fielding coach.

I don't think that the situation is going to change anytime soon. Damaadji (Shastri) was selected as the coach, mostly due to his unwavering loyalty to Kohli and other biggies within the Indian team. Now everything is going in the right direction for the Indian team, and they are winning matches. At this point, even the BCCI bosses would be reluctant to antagonize Kohli.
I think upcoming T-20 WC might change the tide. If India lose then there are high chance of Shastri getting sacked as no one in BCCI holds favorable opinion about him especially Ganguly and everyone might start thinking beyond Kohli in the limited over cricket.

Kohli is panuti when it comes to big tournaments be it Champions trophy final, Semis of WC and almost every season of IPL.
