It is a bitter truth, sachin never perform when needed.Why is he considered as GOD of the game when he is not performing continuously. No one had a big heart to SACK him out even BCCI president. Big companies should cancel his agreement as a brand ambassador, AIR TEL has shown him a door, i thank Bharti Telecom Ltd for the bold decission. Bring young talent and i hope ZEE will definitely help the game in our country.
RE:SACHIN should be saked

It looks like its more to do with your frustration than Sachin.
You cannot possibly hate somebody so much without actually knowing that person. He's been very bad at batting in the world cup but so has every body else except yuvraj. So why not the sack the whole team. Well atleast it'll give new people to earn mega bucks as you see it.
why... mr. shah.. why not u stoped Mr. chappel earlier.. be it yuvi issue or saurabh issue or zahir issue... now if sachin is speaking out than whats th problem....
Sachin is playing only for the money and not for the country. Every sportsman has a peak followed by a downfall. He should have gracefully exited rather than continue despite being no where close to the form he was once known for. Only because we all respect him he is taking undue advantage and extending the hospitality. He should have refused to play in the worldcup. Seeing the type of person he is I feel he will not step down until he has disgraced him self even further and along with himself the country too.
Sachin would have been out of the Team long time ago if he would have been in Australia Team. India does not produce quality players as Australia does. BCCI should follow Austrailian strategy to produce quality cricketers.

Keep dreaming of this BCCI team with the current players winning against Aussies. Same people dreamt of this team winning the WC and abused ones who posted that this team is going to fail, long befor WC had begun.

Dear ashwani. I think you are totally wrong. Sachin is a good player; but I agree that India has not produced many good players. Most of the players have done a great job in the subcontinent, but once out of it, they all fail. When was the last time Sachin got a series victory for india outside of subcontinent? My memory is not too good, do you remember?
Also players are not great just by their batting or bowling skill, but self-respect and discipline are also very important. Donald bradman, viv richards are great player and so was sachin; but looking at his attitude and desire for personal achievement; i would not say that in future. One should not be in team just because he did a great job in the past or just bcoz he has a passion for the game. I also have a passion for cricket; does not mean i should be part of the indian cricket team.
Time for a lot of senior cricketers to retire. Do not blame a coach for your failure. He can be a part of a failure but most of the work come out of the team and their spirit towards a game.

RE:Sachin can only listen to Gavaskar
by Mohan on Apr 05, 2007 11:04 AM Permalink
Neither Gavaskar will say nor Sachin will retire. Both of them alongwith Ravishastri & Vengsarkar are out to bury Indian Cricket and currently on the look out for a good casket. Osho do not make some idiotic remarks (as usual......)
and other 10 players that cant deliver when he fails A country that has over a billion people and more than 75% of it cricket lovers and cant provide 11 good players It is sad but deserving That we wll have to listen to more of such meaningless dinosaurshit. Now let merit get its place Greg Chappel as coach - Poor records Niranjan Shah as Administrator - Poor performance Dilip Vengsarkar as Selector - Poor work Their performance for this world cup and overall has been bad. Sachin as Player - This world cup -Poor work overall - Excellent. Is there a man of calibre to replace him right now? No one has proved himself more worthy than him. So with due respect to Sachin Bashers You have no credible replacement. So many times so many people had said Sachin cant be depended on in the most crucial moments then why did BCCI not oversee selecting 10 people who could have tided over that one moment. Why did we not have 10 players who could overhaul 250 odd runs? Think with your brains people Dont blame the lame duck among the blind and dumb for everything. And let me put it real perspective The young generation of India today is not man enough, we have seen the debacle in all spheres of life. You allow moral policing, in the 1970 and 80's it wouldnt have been allowed. You allow casteism and reservations, back then it was on the wane. Perhaps you had too much of pampering, you dont deserve any better. Wake up. Be men. Accept your defeat graciously and get fighting over all that is right (but not bysenseless voilence. Prove yourself if you have the balls. I dont hear voices on dismantling this BCCI and nationalising it, making it more answerable to the Indian public. This is one limited company only benefitting a limited nuber of people. They can represent us but not answer us. This has to end. As all evil has to end. But I dont expect you young peole to have balls so I know all this has been wasted. Pity India.

living in the past is not a good idea, Sachins performance over the last couple of years has not been good enough. What is the use of all those records if he doesnt play in the most important matches. In tests when was his last serious contribution which allowed us to win or atleast to compete hard. Maybe there is no replacement right now but if we groom a proper youngster over a period of time we might get one

The point is Before you strip the tree of all its leaves, let the promising new leaf come out. We shouldnt have a minnow team just because we are upset with our seniors. If tomorrow (in 24 hours) we get people who have capabilities or even promise like Sachin, keep Sachin out. That simple. Just no sentiments pure professionalism in giving the right to the deserving.

Damn you Samson, First man to talk sense on this Blog. Atlast a cool head. If you can find a better player then replace, yes thats the key. I agree totally.
First of all, The Indian Media particularly the TV NEWS channels having competition with each channel making a lot of rumors and broadcasting the wrong news. First of all Greg is not resigned, he asked BCCI not to renew his contract becuase his contarct is already over as He is the coach only up to world cup. But this news channel repatedly telling Greg is resigned...its nonsense and this media is making unncessary panic over Indian citizens and making money out of it. Next example is Sachin told that IF greg told in his report that senior players attitude is not right then he hurts himself. But where is the report? The report is not officialy put up. Then Where sachin has seen the report? The Media is telling all rumors as NEWS. And creating breaking news out of it. If Govt of INDIA can amend a rule that any of the TV news channel should not telecast the unauthorized news then only people will get the true news. Otherwise we people will be kept cheated by this people. Sachin said repeatly that IF Greg said, but this TV news falshing that face off between Greg and Sachin. Where this stuipness comes? Can BCCI have independent enquiry on how the report in leaked and how senior players told TOI that Greg is not good? Donot earn money by making people fool. Is the any BCCI officials or players can take responsiblity and resign from thier post for the early exit of world cup as it was done in pakistan? This BCCI will not do because this is money making board and officials can enjoy as our players do the same. Only some people like Kiran More lamenting on true sprit. But people has to understand that Cricket has gone from its true color and its now only money making sport. Forget sachin, greg etc/..concentrate on your family career. Donot waste time. There is no patriotism is this this is money making and fooling peoples. Unless people get awareness they will kept cheated. See TV channels , BCCI, coach, players, MNCs making money from we people only. But we kept cheated. Think and boycot the cricket sport in INDIA till Govt takes the BCCI on its own. You know what happend to telecast right in INDIA in justb last 2 months before. BCCI had not worried to whom they are playing. They need money only. When India cannot see thier own country playing then for what they are playing. Its clear nonsense , donot get ourselves slaves to cricket players and Admins. Jai Hind.

right on the dot you have hit the bulls eye. we are being taken for a ride by the media, BCCI and sponsors. Lets not buy products blindly because our heroes endorse it.
Its not Ganguly....first Mr.Girish Rao should be thrown out of India for his anti communal feelings. Its a kafi giri hui harkat by GIRISH ...foolish!! i can confidently say. this girish is not a cricket fan and does not understand cricket at all. It is a very ugly comment from him & i dont know why the moderator is allowing such comments spurring regionalism on this site.Yes Mr.Rao he wasted a lot of balls specially urs.They should have been smashed till u become a sixer.Do u understand anything about cricket.U r a sick person just practising regionalism.If u r a bong hater go & *uck around some other forum.I dont know from which community u belong & what is thr contribution towards the countrys heriatge & culture.Judge everybody as a player,not from the community hez coming. come to some other forum ,i will let u know what bongs are. U should at least have the brains to know what to write & where to write. Learn maths, stats & circket first if u have enuf brains left after that then comment.If Ganguly wouldnt have played slow there India couldnt have played the full 50 overs.

I completely agree with Samit . Don%u2019t because he is belongs to Bengal, because you only understand the language of communalism. What Sourav has done for the Indian Cricket for the last 15 years everybody knows that. yes I have same voice with Sumit %u201CU r a sick person just practising regionalism.,i will let u know what bongs are.%u201D U should at least have that sense to know what to write & where to write .

I think this is all Bull*&$ Probably new indian team should be Captain - Mr. Niranjan Shah Other Team members - Ex Players and Media persons
Media people are very good spinners. Ex - Cricketers are the one who have done nothing then just losing again and again and now they give their expert comments. This is all crap.
RE:Mr Niranjan Crap

you said it. We will have no complaints if this is the team, for who will want to watch cricket then
Sachin spoke because he had understood the game plan. Chappel was attacking from back door to create a negative atmosphere before the meeting on the 6th & 7th. The BCCI, in the name of professionalism would hv supported Chappel. Therefore, like a solid batsman that he is, Sachin decide to play the straight drive which hit Chappel in the mouth. Result, he got exposed, had no other way but had to quit. Reg failures in the WC: Pl tell me if u hv a spat with yr father and then u go to take the CAT, r u likely to perform to yr abilities? Certainly not. This coach was keeping the players on tenterhooks, not talking to them for 3-4 days. In such a mental state if the players go to face balls at 140 KMPH, how can they perform. No wonder Sachin & Dhoni (what with Chappel-Dravid backed Karthik playing on his nerves) got foxed repeatedly, no wonder Saurav did not have the confidence of going all out for the team and no wonder Dravid never got into full flow. A coach is supposed to coach the team. Chappel, however, took over the entire man management. Dravid yielded because he owed his survival to Chappel (let us not forget Dravid succeeded the highly successful Saurav only because of Chappel)and finally Chappel mis-managed the team. Going to the stats of Dravid-Chappels sucess, let us remember India defeated Pakistan in ODI AFTER Shoeb Akhtar was dropped from the team. So Pak was not on full strength. When in full strength, they had humiliated Dravid's India by 272 runs at Karachi with only Saurav and Yuvraj showing some spine. Similarly, England also was much below their normal strength. Shri Lanka which lost 6-1 was in shambles and badly lost elsewhere too. If analyse we shd that in the correct perspective. Dravid is an excellent batsman but his ambition to become captain sunk India to its present low.

Thanks for the complement, but u hv neither contradicted the facts nor found fault in the reasoning given. If we can not face facts then we r doomed to repeat the mistakes no ends. If u think some one who is not on talking terms with the head of the management can perform in the field, u r living in yr own paradise. Mental state is extremely important for performance. Any management guru will tell u. We become so obsessed with our regional sentiments that we forget to apply basic principles of good management. I do not consider Saurav to b a batsman of the class of Sachin or Rahul but the man is definitely a better manager of men. I will hasten to add that going back to him can not b an option. We hv to find out new solutions
