My Question.....if INDIA ONLY WON UNDER GANGULY BECAUSE OF DRAVID'S CONTRIBUTION...THEN I SUPPOSE NOONE IS STOPPING DRAVID TO PERFORM WHEN HE IS CAPTAIN AND WIN MATCHES FOIR INDIA LIKE HE DID WHEN GANGULY WAS CAPTAIN.....
IT WAS NOT DRAVID...IT WAS A FIGHTING UNIT UNDER GANGULY....
RESULTS SPEAK FOR ITSELF.
WORLD CUP FINALISTS....UNDER GANGULY WORLD CUP DISASTER .....UNDER DRAVID
CHAMPIONSTROPHY WINNER, FINALIST & SEMI FINALIST UNDER GANGULY
CHAMPIONSTROPHY DISASTER AT HOME....IS ASHAME..UNDER DRAVID...
EXAMPLE OF POOR CAPTAINCY.... DRAVID SHIFTED TENDULKAR TO MIDDLE ORDER...BUT HE WANTED TO OPEN....
GANGULY ALLOWED TENDULKAR TO OPEN IN WORLD CUP..IT PAID OFF.....GREAT CAPTAINCY

Dravid never played negative game, when Ganguly was playing 2003 WC or Champions trophy. But Ganguly and Tendulkar played negative game and politics to get Rahul Dravid down, so that they can clinch Captancy. This is pathetic cheap politics of Ganguly and Tendulkar.

THATS A MAN MANAGEMENT PROBLEM..... IN OTHER WORDS YOU ARE TRYING TO SAY ...SACHIN AND DRAVID SUPPORTED GANGULY. BUT GANGULY AND SACHIN DID NOT SUPPORT DRAVID.
BUT WHY IS THAT? ITS NOT ONLY DRAVID AND SACHIN WHO PLAYED WELL UNDER GANGULY....BUT THERE ARE OTHERS WHO PERFORMED WELL.SO IN SIMPLE WORDS EVERYONE SUPPORTED GANGULY AS A LEADER.
NOW ITS NOT ONLY SACHIN AND GANGULY....THERE ARE OTHERS WHO DID NOT PERFORM....SO Y BLAME SACHIN AND GANGULY......
DRAVID WANTED TENDULKAR TO BAT IN THE MIDDLE ORDER.TENDULKAR WANTS TO OPEN.
2 GUYS DONT MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
Ganguly was not even there in the Championstrophy...so how do u justify that disaster at home??

Dravid is a meek and timid person. He is a very jealous and ambitious guy. He used to flatter Ganguly for securing his place in the team in spite of his very slow and powerless cricket. He hardly raised his bat or hit a ball for the fear of getting out. He was there in the team due to strong South plus Mumbai lobby support and patronage of Ganguly. Ganguly even kept him in the team as wicket keeper batsman and saved the career of Dravid. Dravid once said that on the off side play Ganguly is only second to God. Ganguly never never said anything or did anything against Dravid or Tendulkar or any player of the team. But when Ganguly was dropped none of the senior players stood beside him. Remember how Dravid reacted when anybody in thge media asked for inclusion of Ganguly in the team. His jaws stiffened and his mouth became dry. He said that it was upto the Selection Committee to select players and then vehemently opposed selection of Ganuly in the selection committee meeting along with his godfather Chappel. This shameless spineless apology of a human being however threw all his weight behind Sehwag in spite of his repeated failures. This is called double standard or dwicharita. He can never be a successful captain. Not a single player in the team would respect such a hyppocrite. More and more humiliation is awaited for the Indian team as long as selectors keep Dravid as the captain.
