these maharastrian crickets are so good blaming others while saving their state players... tendulkar (so called star player) or any other batsmen are the ones who should perform on the field and not coach. sad for india that we have such politicians in sports.. look at Lara and learn something mr tendulkar.... RETIRE RETIRE RETIRE RETIRE........
gavaskar is right...chappell has lead to this downfall. Chappell shouldn't have got into the Ganguly controversy...it disturbed the entire morale of the team.

Really, Does Gavaskar also want Sameer Dighe as Wicketkeeping coach and Sharad Pawar as the fielding coach?

RE:Dravid has to resign too, he was with this loser Chappell every step of the way...............

Dravid is the weakest captain of India. He is the YES-man. He has no personality. In order to save his captaincy has to obey each & every order (wrong or right) of Mr. Chappel.

chappel balle balle when india wins.. i m not being regional.. i am indian too.. but we should stop playing the blame game that we always do... and do something...
Gavaskar was the one who wanted Greg Chappell as coach 2 years back. Even Steve Waugh had said at that time that Tom Moody was a better choice and that Greg was a bad coach even then in Australia. But then India chose Greg as recommended by Sunny and others and Moody went to Sri Lanka. Look where is Sri Lanka and where is India today. So Gavaskar should take responsibility for choosing Greg instead of Moody. He has no business to blame Greg now after waiting so long. Gavaskar is mad at Greg for putting Sachin in his place. Let us see how the next coach will be able to handle this most incompetent team in the world.

To beat Berumda Tamilnadu team can do it. why we need a coach?. Its a failure of superstar who have scored more than 10,000 runs.
Greg Chappel was here not to improve indian cricket, but he was here to ruin. As Austrailians had fear that Indian team will definately beat them in 2007 so It was a game played and Chappel came to ruin Indian cricket by playing politics, sacking Ganguly. Hats off to Chappel because he was successful in his mission to spoil indian cricket. Our BCCI have so many stalwarts but failed to understand the logic of Greg Chappel. His mission was completed and he resigned.

Hello Sir, I just feel sorry for you. I am sorry that there are many ignorant guys like u in this country.What can Chappel do when the mafia of Indian cricket is in control. What a silly email, what a shame

If Chappell cant do nothing , why was he here in the first place?I think you should feel sorry for yourself, as you have no concept of responsibility!God bless you!

I 100 % agree with Saiyed. His mission was not to fix India cricket, his mission was to destroy Ganguly and Indian cricket, because since the famous Laxman series of 2001, India was seen as a threat to Steve Waugh (Remember how Ganguly humiliated Steve Waugh by turning up late at the toss). This was a plan and it was executed professionaly. Our blind and stupid mandarins in the BCCI didnt see it coming and bowed to a foreigner. Its in the Indian gene. No wonder we were rules for more than 250 years. Saying Chappell wanted to fix Indian cricket is like saying East India Company just wanted to do business in India. Wake up India !!!

I agree, chappell's mission was to destroy Indian cricket and he did it! Dravid helped him in the process

Well said, Sunny. the only one who had opposed Chappell's employment 22 months ago .... now we can see why .... no one knows cricket better than Sunny. at least not the BCCI officiandos .... :-) Greg Chappell has really tore apart India's cricket, and nobody seems to care! BCCI is just happing yes-men at key-posts, people they can easily manipulate .... poor Dravid ....

Jared and kumar....why cant someone point out the mistakes, without having to coach?Your logic is skewed, you are saying that to criticize Chappells/Dravids 3rd rate record, I have either to take up coaching or assume captaincy.Pls think before you type, its a request!
