The little master gavaskar always has a big soft corner for the Bombay players.So it,s no wonder he blames Greg for the india,s debacle.Where was he when greg was chosen as the coach? this question he should have raised at the selection of the coachin 2005.We do respect gavaskar for his cricketing abilities.But we condone him for making such idiotic comments,when he says that the coach is responsible for our defeat.Earlier also he made a stupid comment on Ricky pointing and got some brickbats for that.sachin tendulkar and Agarkar were total flop....why he is not able to say and digest that...because they are from Bombay.Vengsarkar the chairman of the selectors was resposible for the team selection.Why not blame him...because he is from Bombay.It,s better Gavaskar stops this sort of mud slinging habit and behave like a true professional ought to be in the world of cricket.That,s good for him and for indian cricket.

Gavaskar has not made any idiotic comments, dear. Greg, along with Kiran More and Rahul Dravid, has caused great harm to Indian cricket. When ganguly was captain, despite losses in ODIs, India was number two in ICC test rankings. Where are we now? And we have not improved either in the ODI rankings. Greg, Kiran More and highly insecure rahul Dravid brought groupism to the Team India that Ganguly, the only indian captain who always rose above paarochailism by promoting Yuvraj, Zaheer, Harbhajan, Shehwag and kaif, had built. Unfortunately, the BCCI does not respect those who have brought us honours - Wadekar, bedi, Shrikant,Sachin and Ganguly - they were not invited even in the last meeting of Indian captains! BCCI these days are guided by the likes of Raj Singh Dungarpur and Bangalore-journalist Rajan Bala who think white crickers and cricketing nations must be treated like Gods. Dungarpore had once sided with Denis Amiss by saying Sachin did the worst from of ball-tampering in South Africa. No wonder why Dungapur and Bala hate the likes Ganguly, Wadekar and Shrikant who dared to see through the eyes of their rival and white captains!
Very well said!! India should stop playing against all these whites and they should stop playing abroad all together(Why should we take a chance when we definitely we cannot win against SL or Pakistan in their country). Afterall our player's average and superhuman in our country (Dhoni averages 99.94 in india, outside he averages only 21). This will give us a very good chance of winning the next world cup (Afterall it is going to be played in the subcontinent).
