Winning or defeat in matches depends on performance of XI players irrespective of captain, coach, pitch, stretagy and conditions. Bangladesh and SL victory against India is best example It is not dravid but gnaguly sachin harbjanand dhoni should be out of team. some players delieberatley palyed negative cricket and dtiched dravid.and betrayed team. If players are not ready to support team cause what capatain can do for that It is up to individual players to deciede that play for team then support captain? why did not criticse harbajans bowling wktless in 2 games sachin complete failuer with bat dhoni faile in batting and was laughing after dropping catch, ganguly is main culprit played a big role in defeat and took revengae agaisnt dravid and chappel he could not have got big event like WCganguly wasted more balls than the runs he scored. The strikerate and average of bangadesh and other country opening players are better when compared to ganguly averagel His poor fielding and poor running wkt and unwilling to take singles cost more runs to team also created pressure on batsman on other side Yuvraj Scored 47 runs in 10 overs Rest of team scored 50 in 19 overs Against burmada he 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 Tendulkar scored a duck, Ganguly 7 in 23 balls and Yuvraj 6? Dhoni 0?( match against srilanka) All is these playrs contributed to team defeat why u blame coach and captain only. I
Dravid was criticsed by chief selector and board members and ex cricketers but he was highest rungetter, and scored 100 and won mom. Other players din not score 100 against even Bermuda also dravid was only batsman struggling agianst SL the match was crucial and all other batamanss went to pavilion by gtting out silly shots IF Captain and coach should go, then all players like sahin, ganguly, dhoni, harbajan, agarkar should be out. If team were win , except dravid all other 10 players would hv come forward to take credit. Why they should be spared when team had defeat???? A BACK STAGE POLITICS TO DITCH CAPTAIN AND BETRAY TEAM. WHO IS RUNNING IN FRONT FOR THE CAPTAINCY??? Team lolst to banladesh when ganguly was captain. Team did not win siires in SA when ganguly was captain It is same situation. 2 yrs back team lost series in Srilanka and ganguly reappointed as captain to Zim tour. And ganguly was praised team won series even dravid was captain Now next tour is of bangadesh and even after recent defeat, team Ind is going to win series. So change in captaincy to project ganguly good captain dravid poor captian U don;%u2019t think even team would have won series against bangadesh ZIm even dravid leads team?? Captaincy myth Ganguly -5 yrs Team won 76 odis out of 147 matches when ganguly was captain
out of 147 matches India won 76 (51.70%) lost 66 (44.90%) Tie or no results 5(3.40%) won 74 (50.34%)
But Saurav captained 34 ODI against minnows Bangla Desh Zimbabwe Namibia Kenya Netherlands Canada etc%u2026..
Dravid %u2013 16 months Team won 33 odis out of 65 ( including this WC matches) when Dravid was captian
India won 33 (50.77%) lost 28 (43.08%)no result/ tie 4 (6.15%)
But Dravid captained ot 65 matches captained only two ODI against minnows i.e. Bangladesh and Bermuda
VC sachin failed with bat but ganguly scored runs but wasted more balls and his poor fielding, running btw wkt cost more runs to team and gifted match to Bangladesh herbajan wkt less dhoni is a complete failure. He was laughing evn after dropping catch even one win would have taken team to S.legue and there was no change in captaicy and odi winning average differen very just 1% when compared dravids 's 16 months captaincy with ganguly's 5 yrs achievement. Back stage politics who names are forefront in captaincy race???

RE:some players ditched captian and betrayed team by Indra Sengupta on Mar 29, 2007 08:16 PM Dravid scoed 14 and 7 against Bangladesh and Bermuda respectively- great player!!! Dravid scored 81 runs in aggegate. Gnguly scored 161 in aggregate!!! Ganguly slow player! Most of them are not even that!! Scoop- Videocon has removed Rahul from the advertisement!!! Sachin and Dhoni were also removed. Team India ha ha ha. Destroyed Destroyed and Destroyed, by jealous More, ambitious Rahul and crooked Chappel. Cry India cry, Cry like you cry at bereavement. Cry and cry, Let warm tears roll down your cheek and you take a vow to appreciate the real leader and the patriot and vehemently protest the incompetence and non performance of the blown up heros.

IT is ganguly main culprit for india defeat and sebotage the Wc campaign.there is politcs and groupism after his return. He took revenge and ditched dravid. and forgotten dravid's contribution to his success as captian ganguly was captain for 5yrs a lengthier period and dravid is leading side from last 16 months. so more matches played under ganguly captaincy can dravid lead side for equal no matches? it was dravid kumble, laxman and sachin contributed lot to ganguly's success more than his leadership qulity. ganguly took the credit for hard work of other players but dravid atleast shared credit of victory with his teammates. dravid acceped his responsiblity for defeat infront of media Had ganguly ever did likethat? when team lost matches he was pushing dravid to conduct press briefs??? so achievement of five yrs can not be acheieved in 16 months still the diff between winning average is only 1% Captaincy myth Ganguly -5 yrs Team won 76 odis out of 147 matches when ganguly was captain
out of 147 matches India won 76 (51.70%) lost 66 (44.90%) Tie or no results 5(3.40%) won 74 (50.34%)
But Saurav captained 34 ODI against minnows Bangla Desh Zimbabwe Namibia Kenya Netherlands Canada etc%u2026..
Dravid %u2013 16 months Team won 33 odis out of 65 ( including this WC matches) when Dravid was captian
India won 33 (50.77%) lost 28 (43.08%)no result/ tie 4 (6.15%)
But Dravid captained ot 65 matches captained only two ODI against minnows i.e. Bangladesh and Bermuda He is match winner in both forms at home and aboroad.

The Deserved should be Saluted:Not the Traitors!
There comes a traitor Bong once again.India hasn't included your Sourav in its squad for a test World Cup.Now you got to know whois the most selfish&jealous of them all-none other than your very own Dada.Was he playing so slowly in the opening match because the opposition was your very own Bong Dada-Bangladesh?How much did he score in that crunch match against the Lankans hitting that reckless shot? But here you got it right-Ganguly is the lone one preferred by AD agencies.Its neither Rahul,Sachin nor Dhoni-its Dada-remember he'd appeared in a pepsi commercial even when he was out of the team-money matters you know? Well,Rahul was inSansui,not Videocon! The likes of Sachin,Rahul,Dhoni etc are just ambitious agreed-you got to be ambitious is the biggest treasure that every sportsperson should posses.But Sourav jealous,couldn't withstand the love&support offerd to Sachin by the fans,traitor-backstabbed at the most crucial moment thus taking revenge,snob-who considered him the greatest&couldn't take humiliation of playing under a person whom he had captained-very clever&tricky minded-truly Shakespeare' Iago in every sense! You Mr Sengupta,by posting this message&demanding the Indians to cry proved yourself to be another traitor.

Media should not blame the cricketer. Instead India played better if you see the statistics of Rahul's captainship outside the subcontinent(India, Srilanka, Pakistan and Bangladesh). Match played=17, won=5, lost=11, no result=1 Winning ratio=29.4% In the world cup India played better with winning ratio=33.3%. At the time of Ganguly's captainship (in 78 matches )India won nearly 53.8% match outside the subcontinent. Ganguly as captain outside the subcontinent Match played=78, won=42, lost=34, no result=2 Winning ratio=53.8%
