Thats what u see .Either i am a ganguly fan or dravid fan.I am neither.i dont expect ganguly as captain.For me Yuvi should be made the captain and the trio should give full support to him both on and off hte field.And regarding gangulys place in the team.See his record in the matches he played after coming back in the team.If he would have been recalled earlier he would have played better.U would say he played slowly against Bangladesh.Y dont u look at the scenario .Four wickets have fallen.Only Dhoni was there after him.If he had played a shot and got out u would have said he should be kicked out of the team.We all know what happenned after his dismissal.Dravid also played slowly in that match.Nobody talks about him.I remember in the last SA series india were chasing a target of over 250 and were 4 wickets down with almost no score.Dravid made half century in 170 balls even knowing that with such slow pace india couldn't have won the match.After the match everybody praised dravid for his knock. Here India were setting the target and 191 was good for a team like bangladesh(SL bowled them out for less than 150).When sachin started to play slowly every critic started saying he changed his style and it suited indian batting.But Sourav have to hit sixes and fours and score at more than run a ball even though the othter batsman is Uthappa who was playing like a pinch hitter and sehwag who does not know to defend the ball and was out of form for the last one year.As far as i see ganguly is in a no win position and biased people like u will always find fault in him.No matter what u think he won us plenty of matches and will do so in the coming years if given the support he gave to all the youngsters.Tell me how many youngsters have come who made a mark under dravid when his moto was to crop oldies()tageted ganguly) and bring fresh blood,compared to ganguly's captaincy.Ask urself and you will find the answers.
If u have any valid point to sya then reply otherwise there is no need to ask such lame questions.
