what crap. any coach who has been given an assignment to lead a team to worldcup finals would not want to scuttle it right from the begining. if its him to blame, i'd pin the senior players (including dravid who isnt in form, including ganguly, despite in form dint perform when required, including sachin who hasnt perfromed well), i'd also blame the selectors, the BCCI for mismanagement.
also, chapell hasnt opined publicly about senior players beahving in a particular fashion. if you believe rumours, listen to rumours from both sides!
