Mr. Chappel is not at fault. The real problem lies with Cricket board & players. It is good that Mr. Chappel left the scene. At least he can save his self respect. R.Viswanath

You are right. Now Chappel has left and it seems that Sachin, whose average is below 18 in the last 11 matches (excluding Barmuda match)in outside India, won the ugly battle of Cricket politics in India. Who is still supporting Sachin while better batsmen and alrounders are there in India. Why should he continue with the Indian team with an average below 18 per game. He wanted opening slot, but he used to get more than 35 overs to bat whenever he came to ground at No.3 or 4. What else he wants???

Bang on target Johney... Sachin has won this battle. We, people do not want committed people, who really want to do something in the interest of the game. We need people who keep on thinking about themselves that is the reason why people like Sachin Tendulkar who put their heads high and keep taking abt the their past.
Tendulkar says that we people are criticizing and not supporting them without knowing what they are going through? Now Mr. Tendulkar, very one calls you a GOD, what else do you want from us.

Please dont start now.. he was never good in the first place as a coach. probably is a great player but not a good manager. all he did was create isecurities within the team. with his so called support staff, he was without dobut, a bully. shame on BCCI..

He is neither a good player nor a good manager. He is a cheater and cheated cricket by bowling underarm.

Management skill does no mean to flattering of senior players,but tell them their weaknesses time to time,so that they could improve that.The live example is sourab ganguly.Now this is the time to take sachin tendulkar in the same way.

I Agree with you mr.Viswa, this is correct, but it is a his responsibility to show the corrupted persons who are behind the show.

But the he will be proven wrong, or may be he will be proved as the culprit because the entire system is corrupt. Sachin now appears to be the mastermind because, he opened his mouth and Chappell shut his mouth and resigned. This the Sachin(politician) effect. When Ganguly was question, the board was with Dalmiya. Even then Ganguly was thrown out. So see how powerful is Sachin Tendulkar, that his one interview, made Chappell resign.
Why would he want to lose his life in an alien country?
