win and defeat part of game
by Suman Bhat on Mar 29, 2007 07:28 PM

If some players deliberately play negative cricket and ditched captain and betrayed team what captain can do for it??
it is for the individual players
to decide to play for team or selfIF Captain and coach should go, then all players like sachin, ganguly, dhoni, harbajan, agarkar should be out.
If team were win , except dravid all other 10 players would hv come forward to take credit. Why they should be spared when team had defeat????
A BACK STAGE POLITICS TO DITCH CAPTAIN AND BETRAY TEAM. WHO IS RUNNING IN FRONT FOR THE CAPTAINCY???
Team lolst to banladesh when ganguly was captain. Team did not win siires in SA when ganguly was captain
It is same situation. 2 yrs back team lost series in Srilanka and ganguly reappointed as captain to Zim tour. And ganguly was praised team won series even dravid was captain Now next tour is of bangadesh and even after recent defeat, team Ind is going to win series.
So change in captaincy to project ganguly good captain dravid poor captian
U don;%u2019t think even team would have won series against bangadesh ZIm even dravid leads team??


The match against SL way Indian players their body language showed during fielding looked asipractice match. Some players netgative attitude and body language shows they were not ready to play 6 more matches under Dravid's The way they gave away 29 Extras against Srilanka, leadership ganguly played a big role in defeat. By playing negative cricket and he and sachin dhoni and herbajan betrayed the team and to pull Dravid down.
Captaincy myth
Ganguly -5 yrs
Team won 76 odis out of 147 matches when ganguly was captain

out of 147 matches India won 76 (51.70%) lost 66 (44.90%) Tie or no results 5(3.40%) won 74 (50.34%)

But Saurav captained 34 ODI against minnows Bangla Desh Zimbabwe Namibia Kenya Netherlands Canada etc%u2026..

Dravid %u2013 16 months
Team won 33 odis out of 65 ( including this WC matches) when Dravid was captian

India won 33 (50.77%) lost 28 (43.08%)no result/ tie 4 (6.15%)

But Dravid captained ot 65 matches captained only two ODI against minnows i.e. Bangladesh and Bermuda

VC sachin failed with bat but ganguly scored runs but wasted more balls and his poor fielding, running btw wkt cost more runs to team and gifted match to Bangladesh herbajan wkt less dhoni is a complete failure. He was laughing evn after dropping catch
even one win would have taken team to S.legue and there was no change in captaicy
and odi winning average differen very just 1% when compared dravids 's 16 months captaincy with ganguly's 5 yrs achievement.
Back stage politics who names are forefront in captaincy race???
