Two years back India was a threat to Australia. Now we are worried about even Bangladesh tour.Thanks to Greg Chappel who played politics with the players, Indian cricket is in shambles. BCCI and the selectors are cofused. The players are looking at each other with suspicion.Greg brought a promising player like Pathan into a cofused man by giving importance to his batting instead of bowling which is his strength. He also was responsible for the rift between the seniors , who were united during the time of Wright. Greg also played with the batting position so much that all the batsmen are cofused and this eventually resulted in the poor performance in the world cup. Even our great wall could not perform. Then Greg cleverly twisted the issue by blaming the seniors and their attitude, calling them mafia and made the board believe that is was not he but the seniors are responsible fot early exit. This has started the blaming game. Chappel must be enjoying himself by reading all the cricketing news from India and having the last laugh!

ganguly should retire Ganguly had big role in defeat in mathch against Bangladesh. He gifted match t o bangaldesh deliberately playing negative cricket just to humiliate dravid and to take revenge against chappell ?? but he betrayed the whole team ganguly wasted more balls than runs he scored poor fielding and poor running wkt and unwilling to take singles cost more runs to team also created pressure on batsman on other side He did not bother to try and hold an easy catch during agarka bowling , Never tried to accelerate run rate He did not tried to hold simple catch during agarkar%u2019s bowling 60 runs in 130 balls how it can help a team cause?? Ganguly had one stage for having batted through nearly 11 overs to make a mere 7 runs. Yuvraj Scored 47 runs in 10 overs India Scored 191 in 50 overs Ganguly Scored 66 runs in 21 Rest of team scored 50 in 19 overs Against burmada Ganguly scored 89 in 114 balls wasted 25 balls that is around 4.6 runs per over... compare it to the indian teams average of 8.26 Ganguly was struggling while batting against burmuda, and got 3 lifes Ganguly 7 in 23 balls against SL Ganguly did not return with team but next day when arrived in kolkat airport media said he got a warm welcome He was not team uniform. He did not try to hold simple catch during agarka%u2019s bowling. His poor fielding, poor running btw wkt cost more runs to team than the runs he scored. During SL match, John Writh commentriator was telling that if Sl batsman want 2 runs they should push ball towards ganguly and screen was showing ganguly putting hands behind head staind yawning near boundary line. ganguly is main culprit for WC debacle. ganguly spend more time as per clause of his sponsers ganguly is main culprit for WC debacle. ganguly spend more time as per clause of his sponsers Ganguly success is b'cuz of dravid contribution in tests and sachin contribution in oids.. Not B'CUZ OF HIS LEADERSHIP OR AGRESSION GANGULY %u2018S SELFISH, OPPERTUNIST, CUNNING POLITICIAN AND PROMOTING GROUPISM AND NOT BATHER ED IF TEAM WINS OR NOT GANGULY IS MAIN CULPRIT IN DEBACLE OF WC HE SHOULD BE OUT OF IND TEAM FOR TESTS AND ODIS team went final in WC2003 bcuz sachin batted brilliently. he scored 33%of total runs and won MOS and best batsman. NOT B'CUZ OF GANGULY CAPTAINCY OR LEADERSHIP, srinath bowled well and dravid ketp wkts to accomodate one more batsman No player played negative cricket that team should loolse. But this time some players were not with team or captain by scoring 50 in almost every Innings at the cost of winnig chances of India. India''s loss against bangladesh was due to him. He created fear in our own batsmen by playing pathetically slow and then gave confidence to bangladeshi bowlers.
in 2004 team ind out of chapmions trophy in 1st round under the leadership of so called agressvie leader gangster ganguly. Team had humiliated defeat against kiwis(56 all out recored lowest score for team ind) aussies, Pakistan, wWI ganguly and his chelas like dhoni, bajji, zahir khan should be out team ganguly destroyed team spitrit by votmiting dressing room conflict in front of media after scoring a 100 durig zimb tour. He is promoting groupism, encouraging younger players to play petty politics, against team mates. Ganguly ugly politics made Sachin to leave captaincy down in order permanently betrayed by ganguly. dravid anchored success to captaincy of ganguly but ganguly betrayed dravid dalmiay supported ganguly for 5 yrs as godfather and ganguly betrayed dalmiay ganguly is selfish, opperitunits, politician criketer TAKE OUT CONTRIBUTION/PERFORMANCE OF DRAVID FROM TESTS AND ODIS WHICH TEAM WON UNDER GANGULY s LEADER SHIP HIS ACHIEVEMENT WILL BE LOWER THAN SACHIN%u2026

GANGULY has the highest avarage 64 among the Indian players in last 10 ODI. In what cricketing reson he should be dropped? So that another south player should get a chance in the team?
