How long this article will stay on the front page?
by Aneesh on Apr 08, 2007 01:17 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Anybody noticed? Any news in favour of the spineless captain [dravid] will stay looooong here on the rediff's front page! If you comment against dravid or if you appreciate ganguly/tendulkar, such posts will be removed immediately.

Rediff is shit and palying for dravid, chappel, more and other clowns from bcci.

Rahul is spineless & a dreadful Captain?? Why he did not play ,Shrisanth,Pathan & Karthik in WC 07. He would ruin the Indian cricket with help of Jokers like Pawar& unholy BCCI ,Anti Indian Ravi Shastri,mediocre Venkatesh Prasad.Only Robin Singh is good

Gabguly won the macthes only because of dravid.
Tendulakar has shown that he plays for himself by refusing to drop to no. 4(Though he finally had to, as Chappel asked him to warm the bench, if he doesn;t want to bat at no. 4). So who better than Dravid who is a team-man fit to lead the team? Unfortunately we Indians have a culture to celebrate stars and not the team persons? Very unfortunate.

Dravid is a consistent player, he has always performed consistently and also he has proven to a good captain. Now if star like ganguly, sachin or yuvraj failed to play what can he do? Let him prove his leadershi capability , may be defeat in WC will make him more agressive.
Regarding sachin or ganguly what have they done in recent past for their article to be in front page for so long.

Winning or defeat in matches depends on performance of XI players irrespective of captain, coach, pitch, stretagy and conditions. Bangladesh and SL victory against India is best example and a captain is as good as his team and it is individual palyer to deicide to suppor team and captain or play for self ?? I
When chappelll tried to give chance to youngesters many ppl said expereinece players required. When experienced failded now same ppl are asking for youngsters%u2026
If a player can get negative inspiration why can%u2019t same palyer /what is problem in getting positive inspiration play for team ???

F team win all players come forward to take credit then all players will be responsible for the defeat.
Ind%u2019s early exit is b%u2019cuz of attitude and ego problem of some players and lack of commitment to team.has captain and coach told players to drop catches, bowlers to bowl so many extras , poor running bet wkt or not interested to take singles or rotate strike???
This WC team India %u2018s early exit, b%u2019cuz some players delieberatley palyed negative cricket and betryed team and dtiched dravid /team. If players are not ready to support team cause what capatain.some players fielding and body language was visible that as if they were playing an practice match and gifted match to Bangladesh an early exit from WC means dravid is not good captian and ganguly%u2019s records not harmed
When players only go against captain and coach and betray teammates why blame captain or coach??If player can not perform for team what is his role ? He should be kicked out team

leadership can not be developed - some people has it and some do not. Raul belongs to the 'do not category' He does not command respect from his fellow cricketers - period.

Ind%u2019s early exit from WC is b%u2019cuz lack of commitment to team cause some players deliberately played negative cricket and gifted the match to SL and bangladesh it is team players not chappell who performed pathaticlly on field.

Acaptian is as good as a team. if some senior players grouped against captain what captain can do..A horse can be taken to the water and forced to drink but salllowing or vomoting should be done by horse? so player has to decide to play for team, or self??sachin is legend but he is not above game or team. He can get back into team without proving fitness test,
Atleast greg chappell had guts to speak agaisnt petty politics played by seniors. Now knowing politicina ganguly and great sachin and all senior are together still he accepted the capticany ?? U think he is still a coward???
ganguly and sachin should realise that they are not greater than team or game or ind cricket. all are equal b'cuz cricket is team game

Sudip please take some management lessons(if you are old enough to)Leadership qualities can be developed in anyone, provide he gets proper lessons/coaching from their mentors.
If dravid would not have had these qualities then India would not have won 17 straight ODI's chasing the targets. When top notch faile he as agood leader led an example by anchoring his innings. For you if agression is the only leadership quality that one should have, then please take a break

Leadership can not be developed my dear "Take it easy". A cat can't become a tiger!
Also Dravid's mind is full of poison and jealousy and he doesn't know how to deal and respect other players. That's why none of the seniors like him. Understand???
