In the last world cup, we has a great team. The seniors were all in their prime form. In this world cup we continued with the same group of players. Unfortunately they are now old and without passion to play as good as last world cup. That is just how cricket is. The same happened to the Windies of the 80's, Australia is the 70's, Pakistan of the 90's. Replacing Sachin, Rahul, Saurav, Virendra, Kumble, etc is not going to be easy. It will take time to rebuild the team. Don't just blame Chappel. He did his job as best as he can. But did the players play to their potential?

Sack both Chappel and Dravid. Both of them were experimenting last two years and now crying foul. Dravid is spinelss slave of Chappel. Both must be kicked out of INDIAN squad.
