I've a thinking in my mind that Chappell came to India just to spoil the Indian Team. Are you guys agree with this? He has just turned a good indian team to a worse indian team. I'm not saying that coach makes the team to win and he can play in middle!! NO... But coach's job is to motivate and to give perfect planning to the team to help them in winning and moreover to settle the small issues inside the team which we can not observe.. Now what Mr. Chappell did is, He has shown extra confidence in some of the poor performing players like Sehwag and he has kicked some of them out of the team like Ganguly, also he has made a partition between senior and junior players, apart from making a team of 11 Players, he's made a team of say 11 groups....It's rediculous... I'm big fan of cricket but don't have much of the statistics, in terms of figures, with me.. But i've observed all this during past few years. He was here with a plan to stop india to perform good in world cup and he did it successfully, with courtsy of BCCI. Regards, Singh

indian player are not that small to b spoon feeded they know wht is good and wht is bad. the job of the coach is to just show the direction and the rest all depends on how the players perform. Im not saying tht u people r wrong ,but bcoz of ur possesiveness for our team u r thinking this, try to to see other side of the coin. no teacher will teach wrong i suppose.
consider an eg of school/college teacher she/he does their duty by teaching but if students r unable to clear, it does`nt mean tht teacher thought wrong.

Chappel done right, but our BCCI has internal politics. Why BCCI selected Agarkar/ Sachin/ Zahir - just because they r from Mumbai. Even thogh they are not performing well. Sechin really performed a long time before 2003 WC. It is better to through him out.

Hey guys, I am not Australian but I am pro-chappell. Chapell wanted to rebuild Indian team but there is lot of politics involved with regionalism,ego clash in team which Chapperl couldnot destroy. Indian top players are busy in advertising rather than playing for India.BCCI also doesnot want to change them and favours the team.Team India and BCCi never wanted a foreign coach but on public demand they appointed Chappel as a puppet.
The advertising shouild be banned,NO MATCH FIXING and remuneration based on performance is only solution. One huhdred rupees for 1 runs scored , 500 rs for catch and 1000 rs for wicket taken. If a fielder saves run 500 rs, stumping done 1000 rs and dropped catch and lost stumping at double the rate. The basic remuneration per day should be fixed as low as possible to all 11 or 12. And if a player advertises for a company , he should be fined or kicked out.2 players from each region of India and unbiased selection of team is the right solution. Come back India...We wish u good luck if u play good.
