seeing the current form of the Indian cricket team do you think that former captain sourav ganguly should be r

He can be given another chance to be among the players but shouldn't be the captain as Dravid is the smartest and luckiest captain.

The future looks good. You can't question Chappell on just one bad test match in Pakistan. Don't forget India had to play with an unbalanced side to accommodate Ganguly. They just sacrificed Dravid as opener, when he should be batting at 3 and Laxman at 5. Since, they had to play Ganguly because of political pressure, they had to make changes in the batting order and in the end they suffered. \n\nThe team has improved overall with players like Pathan and Dhoni adding more depth to the batting line up. Don't forget now there's pressure on every player to score runs, unlike a few years ago. Yuvraj has become very consistent. And even Ganguly now can't rest on his past laurels -- he has to score runs like everyone to stay in the team, which is a healthy sign for the team. However, we must need more fast bowlers in the future. On the whole, the team will do well if they stop appeasing others and concentrate on building a balanced team.

i thnk it is a good decision by BCCI.... if ganguly strikes then it is gud as indias poor batting performance will become better....... if ganguly fails then BCCI will b able 2 remove ganguly easily.... the public will then be wid BCCI..... India has tried evrythng.... now it should giv ganguly a chance......

It is very good if they call back him at this all-lost-stage & \ndon't consider it is a must...\n\nNobody is inevitable in any team...\nThe should be able to perform good...\n\nSee Australia is winning matches in a raw not because of a single player's performance...Against India at DLF they lost 5 wickets & they won the match professionally...Against Newzeland yesterday they lost both openors cheaply and they could manage to win...In several cases they have proved it...\n\nSo ne meaning of roaring for Ganguly always...He was a very good player and we lost many matches with him also...

Actually the Indian plight is that it has only two batsmen: Tendulkar and Dravid. Tendulkar is on the slide. India must play atleast 6 batsmen. Raina, Kaif, Jaffer and Mongia are just pushovers. Technically very poor. Pathan could be played as a batsman.\n\nLaxman, Ganguly, Gambhir should join the team. Actually Vengsarkar and Greg want good fielders not batsmen. Hopeless attitude. \nA great follower of the game, like me, has started missing the telecast and instead I watch matches wherein India does not figure.

Why should he? it has to be understood that cricket is a gentleman's game and be it the coach, captain, player or anyone in the team for that matter should keep the discussions happening in a team room with in that room and not go public about it. And mainly the coach should always back his players and share a good rapport  with the capatin as they play a big role in the teams performance on the field and off the field as well. So if an apology is needed then it must be from both of them and not just Ganguly.\n\nAs for ganguly to retire it is totally uncalled for, understand he was running through a bad form, but everyone has and are to go through a lean period, so that should not be an issue for his retirement.\n\none should not forget the amount of support he gave to youngsters like Yuavraj, harbajan, raina and many for that matter, and he was the most aggressive Captain INDIA has ever got, which is what made him the most sucessful capatin and won INDIA many matches abroad.

He should be included in the ODI series, just because he has a tremendous track record in ODI. But i think he is becoming a victim of Chappels ego. He was the only man who stood against Sourav's inclusion in the recent ODI Pak tour.(Its confirmed and there was lots of reports in this issue http://in.rediff.com/cricket/2006/jan/30chap.htm) So that is really bad for Indian cricket. Let him give a chance and if they feel he cannot perform, throw him, but this is not the way to show personal grudge. But as a constant crcket fan of last 20 years, i tell you, sourav will bounce back and he wil get his chance also, no Chappel can deny him..

India is lot improved in one day matches these days. their winning streak in the last six months is proof to this. Reason for this is the emergence of players like dhoni and pathan. they play positive  and aggresive cricket which is so important in one day cricket.\nAs far as ganguly is concerned he has been out of form for the last two years, and since there are youngsters emerging who are capable of replacing him, there is no point in persisting with ganguly. but if he proves himself again in the domestic circuit, he should be certainly given a chance. after all he is one of the finest cricketers ever to play for india. Remeber when he is on fire no one can match him. just flash back those straight  sixes he used to hit of spin ballers( especially left) and fast ballers. if he returns to that kind of form, no one can stop him from a come back.

i think it is easier to speak out of boundary..\nplease do consider the fact that ganguly is out of team not of bad form but of the fact that he brings politics into the team.. and if you think nehra et al are out of team for supporting ganguly.. than sachin also supported ganguly.. but he is in the team..\n\ndont occupy your mind with meshy things about a coach as professional as chappel.. \n\nyou can see the yesterday's win over pakistan.. hats off to chappel

Yes he is very much required. He knows how to play cricket not only on the field but also off the field i.e. mind game. Actually we are not  interested in TEAM INDIA's success. We love to watch our star cricketers perform well no matter if team wins or not. That's the reason even after winning a series Sourav was removed from captaincy. After that India played most of their matches either on home soil or in Asian subcontinent and they performed well as ever so none remembered Sourabh. Actually in Indian condition team India doesn't need any coach or captain. They will perform well  in India its proven truth. Who is Chappel ? He is the same notorious skipper who killed cricket by instructing his brother to bowl underarm to avoid a defeat. Actually we don't need Chappel or Sourabh or any individual. We need to have firm policy on selection.

I personally feel what ever has been done with Ganguly is unjustice hey! whatever it was, he was our Captain..If he's not back in the team that's ok coz he have young lads who need more opportunity but atleast show such courtesy and give him respect and a good farewell when he wants..and if that is if, there is a way give him a chance to play.

By all means,Zaheer Khan should be back in the Indian team.The squad should be as follows \n\nOne-Dayers:\nSehwag[vice-captain],Sachin,Dravid[captain],Ganguly,Yuvraj,Kaif,Dhoni,Kumble,Harbhajan,Pathan,Zaheer,Sreesanth,Aashish Nehra,Munaf,Raina,Lakshman.\nThe above squad can be retained for the tests also.\n\nIt is unfair deal for Ganguly,Lakshman & Kumble.They should not have been dropped for the one-day squad in the recent past.Ganguly is a world class player & has a enviable record in the one-dayer,he is only next to Sachin considering the no of centuries in the one dayers.Laksman's performance was great in the one dayers.The selectors should feel ashamed to drop the player like Kumble[hope everyone know the reason].I also feel bad for Zaheer Khan who has lost his place in both the forms of the game.He was a wonderful strike bowler with Pathan,has played an excellent role in the Ranji matches in India in the recent past & is playing very well for the English county Worcestershire.I want Agarkar & Powar to be not just removed but kicked out of the Indian squad & Zaheer & Kumble can take their places.The above squad should be retained for all the matches[away & home] till the players retire. \n      By considering all these,I feel very bad for the selectors who have & will be selecting the Indian team.

This is unfortunate decision by Indian Cricket Team Management, however, positive part we are not playing with Sachin, Ganguly, Pathan, Agarkar and current Indian team is controlling the match and we may win. We have more option now in the indian team, that is good for indian cricket.
