Sunny first of all being such a great cricketer yourself you should understand that its the players who win or loose matches.The performance of the coach largely depends on his involvement with team selection,his relationship with the players and also ability of the players to implement his strategy on the field.No doubt Greg's job was not upto the mark but holding his solely responsible is not fair.As we have seen in case of Lanka & Bangladesh what nice coordination between coach &players can achieve.Its high time BCCI makes performance based selection and thats the only way out

soumyaji, i would noty go as far as calling him a great..he was a good cricketer with attributes and technique no doubt but he was a selfish one..He never played for the team and now with all these useless comments, he is fast dropping down in the popularity charts

Of course Shetty, probably from Karwar, would do anyhting to support a fellow from his own state, one Rahul Dravid, who has played his Nagpur (his parents and wife are from Nagpur)and South Indian (being settled in Bangalore) cards to the utmost adavantage.
