This world cup is about to prove why we as a nation should stop playing cricket at least in the international level... I really was not feeling like seeing the games yesterday.. who wins, who fails was just no concern for me after the Indian team crushed like a heap of cards before the minnows.. We have seen this before but not with a team so promising.. Already a team from the subcontinent is out of the game, now another is on the path of exit...Disheartening.. More than ever before... Now the chance that we see this stage through is very less.. Sehwag.. He shudnt have been in this team in the first place.. But this, playing a widish game on to stumps is frequently showing his irresponsibility. He shud be sacked with immediate effect Dravid.. First time I am saying this on the message board.. but you definitely have to take responsibility for the irresponsibilities you have shown. First with the toss, then with the bat Sachin.. Its difficult to bid adieu to you.. but we have to.. Your time is up. Saurav.. Congrats on cementing your seat in the side but I will show you my boot for being so slow and shoddy in the effort.. But at least you saw the team through 50 overs. you can revel that after you get exited from the team Dhoni.. Man of honour.. Man of crisis.. Sorry bad luck on Saturday.. You should get the boot for dropping the catch off Munaf Robin.. You are fastly becoming an icon of undependability.. You need to play more games but outside the national team. Ajit.. You have always been inconsistent. saturday's performance was deplorable Zaheer.. You are really a crisis man.. In times of crisis you crunch like buiscuits.. You said County did good to your bowling.. think thats the best place for you.. go back Singh.. Wishing you more luck if not anything else. Munaf.. Seeing some light at the end of the tunnel.. You are the only one who knows your department well.. You are good at bowling.. At least that.. But to say the least.. your fielding is pathetic.. simply pathetic.. please do practice swooping down to defend balls.. Other guys in the team outside the playing eleven.. Even if one or two of you were in the team, I dont think it would have been of much use on Saturday. But some replacements you can do blindly are Karthick Sehwag : Robin and Saurav can open. Karthick can go in the middle order Sreesanth/Pathan Agarkar: The choice between Irfan and Sree should depend on how they do in the practice sessions. Hope there is at least one of them playing good

Suman, before anything, watch your "grammar". Secondly, obviously you don't understand much about cricket. Thats painfully obvious. Chill and blog about Ash and Abhishek in some other board.

Except yuvraj no other player showed the commitment or application for team what Bangladeshi player exhibited thoroughout the match. it is not only captain even allother players are also responsible for the defeat. If ind did not loose match all players would come forward to take credit. When defeated every body blames others. It is ganguly who wasted 63 balls to score 66 runs out 129 balls strike rate 51.16. His batting was shaky from beginning to till 44 th over of innings. He was not willing to accelerate the run rate, putting pressuer on other batsman,. His poor running between wkt and unwilling to take quick singles, convert 1 into 2s and 3s , team lost 20-30 runs.Even though he was highest run getter, ganguly A well settled batsman thrown his wkt by playing some silly shot and getting out after wasting sony balls? that the attitude shown by ganguly put a lot more pressure on sachin,utthappa,dravid n others. ganguly just dint seem to accelerate his innings did not help tem but scored runs for self, ganguly is responsible for team low scoring and defeat.dropping 5 catchess and poor fielding and 2 bowlers ajit agarkar and harbajan went wkt less accelerate ganguly does not help patner is not comfortable batting with him. No chemestry, watch the replay and decideTeam is messed up more after Ganguly is come

ha ha i am waiting for your expert comment. u don't have any cricketing knowledge. if ganguly was not there, india would have been bundled out for below 100. as far as captaincy is concerned, RAHUL DRAVID is the worst captain of India till date. HE IS THE MAIN CULPRIT for India's defeat.

Thats Just simple bullshit.... GANGULY WAS THE ONLY ONE STAYED AT THE WICKET OTHERWISE INDIA WOULD HAVE GONE ALL OUT UNDER 100.U DEFINATELY DONT UNDERSTAND CRICKET...IT WAS A DIFFICULT WICKET ...WICKETS WERE FALLING AT THE OTHER END AND NOT BY RUN OUTS.....BUT PEOPLE WHO CANT BAT IN DIFICULT SITUATION....MR DEPENDABLE WAS REALLY GREAT ...IF WE CANT DEPEND UPON HIM AGAINST BANGLADESH....WE DONT HIM AS OUR CAPTAIN....TENDULKAR WAS UNLUCKY TO GET OUT...DRAVID DID NOT BAT RESPONSIBLY.... DRAVID SHOULD GIVE UP CAPTAINCY...

yes Ganguly is mother of all defeats. Dravid is innocent,it is DADA's conspiracy against Dravid...infact everybody's conspiracy against Dravid. Dravid is such a poor guy, she needs ur love Suman "jao, aur use apni bahon main le lo, jao beti jao". Happy Suman BAI !!!!

how the bangladesh player have play the match just for ganguly the pitch is bad .then u should go and learm cricket from ganguly how to play test matches in one day match he will play selfish game ganguly
We are really very sad to hear about BobWoolmer's death.
ICC organised this tournament in a wrong way. There should some chances to enter in next stage if a team lose one or two matches at entrance, ie: the best way is it should be 2 groups , then atleast each team can play 7 matches which will be intresting. Then take direct semis from the two groups othervise super six or whatever it may be.
Now Pakistan is not a super eight team and India chances also very less if we lose a match means no chances to enter further stage that too in a tournament which will come once for 4 years. Its very bad without india pakistan match there is no entertainement in world cricket. Now how many peoples are in a hurt possition in india and pakistan.
All recent matches, covers all wickets and plays even if there were 6. Ganguly plays for himself..not team...watch carefully..he is a spoiler...donot count his score...how many Dot Balls

Yep, he did score 66 in abt 130 deliveries, but when he thrw away his wicket when the team needed him the most. Totally agreed that he was far better than the others, but he was the reason why Yuvi felt the pressure to go for big shots which eventually cost him his wicket. Playing the role of a sheet anchor is alrite, but u have got to start playing your shots at some time.

I can only empathize with Saurav. You are doomed if you do, damned if you don't. When wickets are tumbling all around you, obviously cricketing brain dictates that you go for the swing. Brilliant. hey, whatever you do, do not sit for your IIT and IIM exams - ever. Not in this or any future life. We can do without you guys

VERY WELL SAID.. I think it is actually Dravid and Sachin who only plays for India.. And just look how well they had played against Bangladesh.. The so called "God" and his chamcha..
He was Happy in his inside feelings and he is the actual culprit never runs and the patner is not comfortable batting with him. No chemestry, watch the replay and decide...dont blame others guys...see the Chemestry...Ganguly is the Shakuni
RE:Shakuni..Ganguly..No players like to bat with him.

think b4 u comment. they shouldnt play bcoz ganguly is batting with them, they should play for the country. others members are jelous bcoz he is in good form, they didnt want them to return back, but luckly he returned and helpd a bit in scoring
When there is no spirit in the team and have a politician Ganguly..talk about captaincy..Yuvraj..chakka..there are no good allrounders to be captain. Team is messed up more after Ganguly is come, Harbajan...no wickets at all..who should be captain...everyone.

Pls check the statistics dravid in 16 months has good odi winning recored than ganguly 5 yr tenure before criticizing comparing dravid%u2019s captaincy with ganguly%u2019s. there is no spirit in the team and have a politician Ganguly..talk about captaincy..Yuvraj..chakka..there are no good allrounders to be captain. Team is messed up more after Ganguly is come A captian is as good as his team If some players are not supporting captian why u blame captain?? It is individual player to decide to support captain and team or self or group within team. there are already news report that sachin is going to replce as captain and even ganguly told the press that he is not interested in captaincy. But his politician friends and media manager ( some ex cricketers ) are doing good job blaming dravid for every defeat and giving credit to ganguly for victory It is not dravid / captian it is ganguly opening innings caused low score and defeatwasted 63 balls to score 66 runs out 129 balls strike rate 51.16. His batting was shaky from beginning to till 44 th over of innings. He was not willing to accelerate the run rate, putting pressuer on other batsman,.

Hey Joe , just curious.

Sehwag is not among the run.Every time he made new mistake. I don't understand why Dravid has somuch faith in him? Every time he find new way to get out
I am shocked to read about the sudden demise of great cricketer and coach Bob Woolmer. He has tried his best so that Pakistan can win the world cup this time but the inner distortion in the Pak cricket team cause them their biggest defeat in the world cup. Bob woolmer is not responsible for thier defeat. I think his death is related to Pakistan defeat. I appeal to West Indies Cricket Board to undergo investigations to find out the real cause of Bob's death. In all, World of cricket has lost its true son. My great tribue to Bob. May god give peace to the departed soul.
I agree with many of you. Because of that droll DRAVID we have suffered a lot. There is no hype left about him. He can not bowl, his batting is no more dependable and he did miserable fielding that day (dropped catches).And of course he is not a material for captaincy. Outside the field he (actually between he and she)is cunning like a fox and sobbing like a wolf. He has proven that he will be of no use in the future. Remove him from the captaincy and ask him to prove his mettle in Ranji trophy first. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.Make Yuvraj the captain and bring back Lahsman and Kaif.They deserve a descent place in the squad.
