While I agree that chappel cannot be blamed totally for the heavy defeats, what needs to be understood here is that chappel came with a storm, ousted a very successful captain, posted a puppet captain, and made it look like he is going to take complete charge and transform the team into perpetual winners. This created a lot of expectation. That, sadly, remains undelivered. . India continues to flounder under pressure. We have gone back to the pre-ganguly/wright days. Chappel got a prepared team (unlike Wright), high on morale and success. From that position, India was expected to perform better, not perish. . Another point is: if India were successful, who would have got the credit? I doubt Dravid's captaincy and the country knows that. Chappel would have got the credit. So, he is getting the brickbats, too. Isn't that fair?
