Rajasthan Royals head coach and former India mental conditioning coach Paddy Upton in his book 'The Barefoot Coach' has said one of his biggest mistakes in his tenure with the Indian team was his sex dossier. He said that it was a joke which was blown out of proportion in the Indian media.
"I wasn't telling the players to do anything. I was sharing information. And what was taken out of context in the media was the jokes that I told them; I wasn't suggesting players do that. That was just the jokes and tongue-in-cheeks mistakes that I made. It certainly wasn't instructions or suggestions to players. But, yes, I made the mistake, as I mentioned in the book, easily my biggest professional error," Upton said in an interview.
