Throw Chappel and Dravid....
by RAJESH SREEDHARAN on Mar 24, 2007 10:44 AM

What a shame on Indian Cricket... The Captain and Coach are responsible for the loss...Will Dravid step down from captaincy after this humiliating defeat? The current Indian team contains three batsmen who has crossed 10000 runs in ODI. Remember last world cup? After the early exit of SA from the cup, Grame Smith blamed the captaincy of Pollock and they were ready to throw him from the captaincy and gave the captaincy to Smith.
Like pollock, dravid is also a bad captain, probably the worst captain of India. (But, I do believe the worst ever captain of India is none other than Sachin Tendulkar). He don't know the use of Pinch Hitter in Cricket. He is not giving chance to Dhoni. If Dhone was in any other country, he would be the opener or a one down batsman. Atlest, they will use him as a pinch hitter. Also, if Sachin bowls in a match, then Sehwag won't be and vice versa. What will happen if he has given the chance to both Sachin and Sehwag in the same match? Atleast in wickets which helps spin???
Also, I think, the absence of Pathan cause a lot, If he was there in the team, we can utilise him as a pinch hitter.And in the early morning pitch conditions, he is a dangerous cancidate.
Dravid should be ready to accept the fact that India's early exit from the series is due to the poor captaincy and should be ready to step down. Or the selectors should be ready to throw him away from the team.
Pls treat it as the words of a true indian fan and do so. And banish Chappel from India and make sure that in future he would not land in India.
