Accourding to my point of view sales is a part of marketing but the sales team works under the supervision of sales manager becuase marketing manager makes stratigies but the sales manager practically implement these stratigies through his sales team.

No, in my experience sales and marketing departments work in paralel, synergy between sales and marketing is vital for a cohesive customer experience, having one team being supervised by two managers with diferent action plans will confuse a team. The two managers however will work together to increase conversions and revenue by creating create complimentary action plans. As mentioned before each manager will retain accountability for that department.
