If Vengsarkar did not sign the BCCI selection (not selectors' selection) of Rahul Dravid as a captain again, it should be raised again on 20th April meeting and sack Dravid from Captaincy. Dravid is a spineless, slave.
Indian cricket will be saved if Dravid is sacked.
He and Greig Chappell damaged the TEAM-INDIA in last two years.
Dravid is so CHEAP person that he even did not resign from captaincy and again accepted the captaincy. He never got education how to show and give dignity of moral values.
Sachin is still asset of the INDIAN cricket. See how whole team break down when Sachin gets out. Then Mr. Gum (Wall) even cannot save or win the match. Mr. Gum also exploited Sachin many times.
Dravid is not a powerful leader and has no self belief. He is too introvert & self centered to be a captain. For his selfish act and self interest he (with the help from another two similar minded person Greg& More ) turned the 'Team India'( inherited from great Ganguly era) to a collection of great players. If you can not build a team then you can not be a team leader. Without a %u201Cteam%u201D you can't win. Consequently we dropped from ICC ranking 2 to 6. He has no influencing power and does not have any charisma to be a captain. He himself understands that. That%u2019s why now he got another a couple of south colleagues (Prasad & Sing) to get the help, support and the %u201Cpower%u201D to make the players agree to his silly plans. Remember if that plain fails he will complain like a child that his players didn%u2019t support him.
A person who can%u2019t lead himself how can he lead 1.2 billion people ?
If a simple man like me can understand, why all the so called experts and knowledgeable BCCI persons can%u2019t understand that?
I think they do understand. But this is the board politics and the part of the arrangement how they came into power. The current management does not care about Indian cricket . As long as they are in power and get the money everything else is fine. DRAVID IS THEIR YES MAN. They just want to put people%u2019%u2019s attention to something different, so that they are not judge by their own performance.
The players should go if they are not performing. But so do the captain, coach & the BCCI management. Because of their combined effort India has slipped down to ICC ranking 6, from ICC ranking 2, when they took power from the previous board.
Only in India we sack our most successful captain after a series win while the captain scored a ton in his last test innings. But we keep our captain (and probably our coach too if he wanted to stay) after such a measurable performance in world cup, champions trophy and so on%u2026.
I think we should change attitude towards cricket tournaments. Just like Olympics we should say participation is the main thing. We do not want to win; all we want our good boy Dravid as captain. The team will not win and the players will not demand. After all it is BCCI who are there to control the players and show who are in charge. Not to help or listen to the player or sort our player%u2019s or support%u2019s problem.

Dear friends, In my opinion this is a CREATED DRAMA by BCCI and ZEE to divert the attention of crorers of Indian cricket fans from the poor performance of Indian cricket team
Otherwise how a league can be organised without having basic infrastructure EVEN GROUNDS ????
And with this drama people will forget the world cup and everything will be in control within couple of months when Indian team will defeat Bangladeh on next tour
There are five players in the team whose http://worldcup.indiatimes.com/It_was_all_about_attitude_feels_BCCI/articleshow/1839620.cms
Winning and defeat of team depands on performance of XI players irrespective of coach, pitch, stretagy and conditions. Bangladesh and SL victory against India is best example and a captain is as good as his team and it is individual palyer to deicide to suppor team and captain or play for self ?? I When chappelll tried to give chance to youngesters many ppl said expereinece players required. When experienced failded now same ppl are asking for youngsters%u2026 If a player can get negative inspiration why can%u2019t same palyer /what is problem in getting positive inspiration play for team ???
Ind%u2019s early exit from WC is b%u2019cuz lack of commitment to team cause some players deliberately played negative cricket and gifted the match to SL and bangladesh and. Interresting to see How DESI coach will to motivater players like Tendulkar,Ganguli, herbajan, zahirkhan, sewag, agarkar and others %u2026%u2026. Chappell, would most probably be picked by Subhash Chandra for his Indian Cricket League

I don't remember him playing Cricket even at the national level. These pen-pushers behave like dictators and are responsible for the current state of Indian Cricket. Team management and selection has become a joke. They ruined the career of Irfan patel by forcing him to become a front order batsmen. The same time they undermined the confidence of stock players such as Saurav Ganguly, Tendulkar, Yuvraj, Laxman, and Karthick by experimenting with the batting order. Their decision to sack Saurav Ganguly, a successful captain with a meek Dravid has failed. Greg Chappel saw a yes man in Rahul Dravid who could not express his feeling in or off the fields. His choice of opening bowlers, poor bowling changes at wrong times, poor field placement, etc. indicate poor leadership from the captain. Often at crucial moments, Darvid was lost of ideas and seen staring at his shoe laces. He failed to lift the team to the meet the expectation of the fans and this team looked very similar to the Indian team at the first world cup. It's a good news that Gerg Chappel has resigned. I think the captain should follow suit and own the responsibility for the debacle at the World Cup. I admire Tendulkar for standing up on behalf of the team. It's time to look to future and we should look for a young captain. Yuvraj Singh would be my choice for the future captain. Another good idea would be to appoint Yuvraj as Vice Captain under Tendulkar or Ganguly for a short period with plan to appoint him as captain later.
