Chappel is coaching
- India
- China
- Wales
- Bangladesh
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - Bangladesh
Whatmore coaches Australia. Buchanan cannot coach China (given) or Bangladesh/Bermuda (same initial), so he coaches Wales. Anushman is not from Canada or Pakistan, so he cannot coach Bermuda or Bangladesh; he coaches China. John is not from Pakistan, so he cannot coach Bangladesh; he coaches Bermuda (and is from Canada). Chappel therefore coaches Bangladesh (and is from Pakistan).
