The person from Canada is coaching
- Bermuda
- Wales
- China
- India
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A - Bermuda
Whatmore coaches Australia. The Bermuda coach is from Canada. Buchanan cannot be that person, since his name and the country he coaches would then both start with B; Anushman, Chappel and Whatmore are not from Canada. That leaves John, from Canada, coaching Bermuda. So the person from Canada is coaching Bermuda.
