However, his performance as coach is not the reason for his departure, it is learnt. "Duncan's wife is not keeping well for quite some time and that's why he wants to leave the coaching job. He, in fact, wanted to leave in between his contract, but stayed back as it would disturb the team's mindset," said the BCCI official.
