We must think with cool head know,everybody is saying that coach and captain are responsible for the defeat.India was grooming Sehwag as the captain suddenly due to lack of form we removed him form VC and handed it over to Tendulkar.Had we given the VC to a youngster we would have not been in this situation.After WC the youngster would have been the captain. After team selection vengsarkar should not have spoken about selection and about Tendulkar leading the team after the WC.Due to this comment players stop listening to the current captain and follow what Tendulkar says. Now also after BD selection Vengsarkar said xyz will be rested or dropped.The chairman of selectors should not speak about any players once they are selected. I think Vengsarkar should resign.According to me Vengsarkar is the main culprit then comes the coach and the captain.
