Greg Chappel failed miserably and trying to hide his mistakes by telling he was victim of racial abuse etc... prob is he is a good for nothing. The youngsters he chose were no good and thats why the team failed in world cup. Also problem was in leadership by Dravid whom Greg chose... if it would have been ganguly we would have reached atleast finals

Hi there, It seems you are a bengali and you people just dont see any thing above ganguly, well no doubt he is a great circketer but it doesnt mean that he can only do right things, give a chance buddy, and think above bengal and ganguly, well i think chappel had a point when he say that the one who is performing he should be in the team. and he is talking about oneday games which require fit players.

masood was right.i m die hard fan of ganguly but at the same time a player who is not in form cant be in the team.when he was removed from the team his bat avg was worse than afridi.the same chappel has inducted rp,sree,raina,uthappa etc.a fresh new bloo for the team

Chappel destroyed the fast bowler in Pathan, he destroyed Harbhajan s confidence, whole team underperformed, and his darling Dravid is cooling his heels presently in odis. Not to speak of his tiff with Tendulkar. Team is performing far far better as a unit under Lalchand Rajput!!

Did Chappel go and play the game in the pitch ? If you performed badly in your school/office, you will get kicked out or your manager or your coach will get kicked out ? Do not undermine a person and his capabilities because of the results given by a team and board which wont listen to him. And be aware we have a better and performing Zaheer and Ganguly because they were rightly tapped where it will hurt them. Otherwise you would have had a team full of brats best suited for Television.

Shut up Masood, you appear to be a man biased towards ganguly. chappel is good for nothing. you are me experinced his hi-tech coaching and the outcome thereto. why you vouch for chapel. he should be packed and sent home. he is not a fit case for indian cricket. yes, he can come and stay here as an ordinary australian citizen but should not make comments on indian cricket and cricketers. He should take a less or two from his brother, the gentleman cricketer and commentator.

Perform or perish ..that was Gregs mantra ..and the lazy ones like Sourav,Zaheer etc were shown the door.Guys rather than getting emotional learn to see things in the right perspective ..T20 win was largely due to Greg's measures

hey blogger,
T20 is just a lottery. Do not attribute any credit for that to Greg. How can u give credit to Greg..? If that is the case, Wright is also a contender for that credit.
Perform or Perish is advocated by who..? this dirty talking and crooked minded Greg...?

you are right mr Nair...job of coach is to coach the cricketers. He should keep his mouth shut and should not indulge in dirty talk.
Greg created the rift between Seniors and Juniors. He is a dirty Gora politician.
