Just because Ganguly is in his team you are asking if he is a Bengali . What a stupid and narrow minded thought

ganguly as captain? are u kiddin?he is not fit to be a member even in the team of bermuda. sahwag and dhoni are useless.. ganguly is not fit to be a internationals.stsistics should not decide who shoud be in and who should be out..it is form and ganguly neither has the form nor temarement..to be in the national team..

ganguly was the weakest link in the team and these days he is playing only for himself rather than the team..he is set to prove that he has not lost form but he forgot about the team and to fulfil his selfish needs he failed to lift the team while playing.
In my opinion, Ravi Sastri is most intelligent person having good cricketing knowledge is the right person for Indian Coach although he may not be a brilliant player during his time. I know, lot of rediff friends may not agree with my view. But this is my view.
@Ghochu...She's expressing her views, which she clearly mentioned in the message. You don't have to be so sarcastic!! Hell, may be she knows more than you and me about cricket.
Here is my team for bangladesh series as per batting order,have ur say, 1)Robin utthappa. 2)sachin tendulkar. 3)rohit sharma. 4)yuvraj singh. 5)rahul dravid. 6)ms dhoni. 7)virendra sehwag. 8)ramesh powar. 9)zaheer khan. 10)sreesanth. 11)munaf patel. 12)dinesh karthik. 13)gautam gambhir. 14)piyush chawla. 15)irfan pathan. 16)chateerjee,cant remember his name,but the man responsible for making bengal play the ranji finals,the one with a poney tail. I think this at the moment is the best team which can tried,ganguly fans i am extremely sorry,cause although he has scored runs,he is a poor fielder and doesnt rotate strike enough and moreover he is not able to increase his strikerate even when set,so frm the future point of view this step is a must.The same thing applies on sachin and rahul but rahul i think is the best commited cricket india has ever produced plus he can control innings in the middle order,i do think he should remain as a captain for a while,sachin is only included in the team so that india can get 3 part time bowlers which can bowl atleast 15 overs between them i.e sachin,sehwag,yuvi.as far sachin batting is concerned he should just be watched as an opener and if he persists to fail or it looks that he is not comfortable,then he should be replaced by gambhir.i think it was a mistake in world cup to send sachin at4 cause he has very seldomely performed under pressure,and has been at his best as an opener.the applies on sehwag,if he fails karthik is an automatic choice/pathan.pathan can also play as a pure bowler in 7 4 combination.HAVE YOUR SAY.

The man with ponry tail....Ranadeb Bose...He is genuine fast...but moves the ball and despite strong showing in Ranji hs not found a place in WC probables...that's how the Indian Selection wrks....

Hi, This was going to happen, if the BCCI and Sharad Pawar (including coach and captain) cannot see beforehand they are not capable of running Indian Cricket.
First, they themselves (BCCI, Coach & Captain) did not have confidence in player and delayed the decision for World cup squad until last moment. Every player was always in doubt what is going to happen till last moment and the player invested whatever energy they had to get selected. So, when the world cup started they were very much drained and mentally tired and before they can regain there energy blink your eyes and world-cup is over.
Than there is captain who wants his favorite player to be in team performing and/or not performing, then there is senior player lobby. Tendulkar is one of ther shrewdish player in the team, soft spoken never gets in controversy, avoiding everyting except keeping his place in team. Performed in all non-significant match and got out cheaply in important ones ( let it be Test match or One-Day). I can bet he will be made captain NOW (he will accept the captaincy with very much relunctancy,though)
Dravid, is far worst captain it seems, Ganguly was not performing but team was winning, and always showed his full confidence in young player. I have a feeling, if he was captain we might at least went thru super eight. I curse myself for hating Ganguly as captain, honestly.
Though everybody including BCCI, Captain and Coach are not responsible for the world cup debacle, BCCI -'Player did not perform' (The team selected themselves they were busy signing commercial contracts). Coach -'He was not given right team' (He was coaching farmers). Captain -'Batsmen did not perform'. (They came from Mars, he was not involve in selection, and as he is Captain neither batting or winning game is in his job description)
The morale of the story is we Indian fan are only responsible for the world cup debacle. As once said by Dalmiah it is BCCI team not India team.
This Chappel himself is an idoitic person.somtimes he blames Ganguly & somtimes blames selectors.kabhi bolta yeh best team hai aur kabhi sms karke ya mail karke bolta worst team hai.Somtimes seniors & for him seniors means only Ganguly & no other player.Don't know why he is behind Ganguly only when all others have failed.Ok we agree that seniors like sachin & Ganguly failed but what about the rest of the team.apart from these 2 all are youngsters.From the time he was appionted he is always searching for the reasons for blaming sombody or the other.And now he is worried about only suresh raina inclussion.How many chances were given to him.only once or twice he came out.Many times he was flop.made a mokery of a striking bowler Irfan Pathan.are achhe bowler ko pakad ke sala chapel usko batting sikhaneki koshish kiya.In the process ruined the bolling ablities of Irfan. Don't know what he wanted to do with the Indian team.totaly spoiled the team sprit.He and Mr.Dravid made the team like a squad of jokers.every body was playing gulli cricket.no body knew why they were playing,where they were playing,how they were playing. All and all as a captian Dravid was an idiot and as a coach Chappel was idiot.
RE:Chappel and Dravid both were faliure no need to blame others.

Mr.VSS, AS U SAID Dravid is a captain,Kumble played only one match against Bermuda and comparing to Sachin and sourav all others are younger to them
For most of them, it was their last WC series... They just wanted to show-up to gain more advertising offers when they retire, which yielded India only one victory (that too again Bermuda, the team which can even be defeated by Veteran Indian Team).
Next is sachin... NO... HE IS NOT GOING TO ANNOUCE HIS RETIREMENT... He will not leave the team because of such a drastic situation... because that will be a black mark of his career and affect all his upcoming ad campaigns...
So What Next... "Arrange a ODI Series with Bangladesh"... Smash them and white wash the series... POOR INDIAN CRICKET FANS will forgive & forget the world cup tragedy...
Then the so called Super Stars will retire... (They will retire only with good name & in a winning game)...
