There are a lot of things that were spoken here about Dravid was not comfortable with seniors? He want them out and so on.
The manager of the Indian team in WC has submitted a secret report to the BCCI which was not disclosed saying that its the seniors like Sachin, Saurav especially Saurav divided the team as pro chappel/dravid and anti dravid/chappel teams and the anti dravid/chappel team led by Saurav deliberately played badly so that the coach goes off and Captain will go and finally Saurav will be given the captaincy again.
Manager submitted a detailed report about wt ever Saurav did like not taking the advise of the dressing room to play fast against Bangladesh, SMSs sent by him to media about the team composition, and when Dravid told Saurav wt to do, Saurav replied back arrogantly saying I was the Indian team captain before and you need not tell anything and so on............
BCCI wants to teach a lesson to Saurav, but fearing a backslash by CAB (Sapura%u2019s state association) included Sachin also in the people who are removed, but has put a polite word rested. :):):)
This happened to lakshman also. The senior players especially Saurav had always has fear that Lakshman will be the next captaincy candidate as he was playing well in the test matches and has a lot of experience as a captain and Selectors once thought of removing Saurav as a test captain and make Lakshman test side captain as Saurav was struggling to get runs in the test matches. Saurav slowly tried to eliminate lakshman encouraging Yuvraj as the test batsman and fought hard to replace lakshman in the test side. This is the reason why lakshman was a never a constant members of the team despite of his good show whenever he gets chance.
Politics always played and plays and still will play in the selection of the players and the way cricket is played in India because the bosses of the BCCI were always either businessmen or politicians.
