Dravid should be out of team at any cost...He is a test player not a one day player.He is the worst/3rd class/fool captain as of now in indian history.If Dravid gets a chance in a one day team then I feel VVS Laxman must get a chance and he is much more stable player compare with Dravid against 1st ball in anywhere of the world.what i feel same team can perform far far better under any other captain like Ganguly or Yubaraj but don't call tendulkar for captaincy.India team should be like this... Ganguly(C) -If he is interested else Yubaraj Sehwag/Gautam Gambir (Uthapa got enough chances) Dinesh Kartik/VVS Laxman Tendulkar Yubaraj(VC) kaif/raina(Kaif is bit better) Mahendra Singh Dhoni Sreesanth V R V Singh Munaf Patel Hatbhajan Singh/Ramesh power Irfan Pathan
Remember that all young stars also got enough number of chances but they couldn't proof themself....so team must be combination of senior and junior player and coach can be anybody except chappel...if above mentioed things happen same team will perform excellent.. Girish.

your very name suggests that support for Ganguly is unrelenting and Dravid has to be blamed.Please do not distort history and records by posting ridiculous messages. Uthappa getting more chances than gambhir!!! are you out of your mind--this shows your regional bias very clearly

Dravid has tried & should be retained.The one who deserves to be kicked out of one day squad are Sachin(he is a lame duck against incutters & has been bowled in same manner for more than a dozen time in last year or so),Sehwag,Ganguly(for his inability to run singles & fielding),Harbhajan & Dhoni.You have already sacked Kumble & rightly so.

1. Dravid should be retained as the captain.
2. Ganguly's batting is still not convincing even though he scored 2 fifties. He has to score a couple of big innings in convincing fashion to demonstrate that he is in form.
3. Tendulkar should be dropped for 1 or 2 series. It will help him get rid of the 'legend' or 'master' title and ease the pressure on him to make a comeback.
