Hi friends, Why are we fighting (posting messages).The BCCI,and the players are all happy and and going about their business as usual.With players playing 20-20 matches for getting into Team India for Bangladesh tour.The BCCI meetings an eyewash, we still are rueing about the WC debacle.Sachin saying he wanted to open the innings,but was forced to play at no.4.It is shame on him. A man who was GOD for millions of fans has let down.A man with such experience should be able to bat at 4 with much more ease. Chappel and Dravid have failed to unite all players to perform. All the players worked to their own selfish ends,and are cooling off as if nothing has happened.There was no semblance of fight when they played BD and SL.Though I wanted to skip cricket columnns the passion for the game is drawing me.Shameless players they never thought of Country and millions of fans who adore.

narasimham, the core problem lies in the dual standards of the team management towards different players !!! If u make rules like "perform and play" then it's ok that they sacked ganguly, but why they did just the opposite to sehwah, will it not raise eyebrows within the team itself ??? Though I believe ganguly's exclusion was more political than cricketing reasons but then also he was not performing too .... but u just cannot devide the team on the basis of ur personal favorism . This is enough to devide a team being in and out of "good book" of team management !!! If u devide a team u can not win a match.. that's the core line.
