This is truly nonsense to blame Chappel for everything !
When Sachin Tendulkar who has been playing for the past 16 years cant touch a ball and keeps getting on bowled out, and can never play in crunch games, is it Chappel's fault???
The players in India who have been playing from a decade cant show a performance, is it fault of the coach????
If the senior pros in the team are not retiring, is it the fault of the Coach????
Well lets accept it is a sport like others which requires a professional approach.
And the team which doesnt have it will not suceed.
Tendulkar says no coach has questioned my commitment as yet......
Has he ever asked how many people have questioned his ability as this age????
Senior pros ahould retire and give the team some chace at least in the 2011 worls cup !!!

It is very interesting to note that the divided Indian team phenomenon wasn't present in World Cup 2003. It surfaced in 2005, when Chappell took over as coach. Was that because of our Indian players or for once would you like to consider the crimes committed by the GREAT CHAPPELL

The mistake of the coach is his inablity to finalize the last 11. Before the world cup, last 11 players must play at least 10 one-day games together, that creates a sense of camaradrie among members. India, England, Pakistan, West Indies are facing the same problem.
