How can you say that Dravid is a soft man when his performance as a batsman has been outstanding for the last 3-4 years ! I think he is under a lot of additional pressure from the Coach which he is finding very difficult to handle.

One can't pin the blame only on Dravid's captaincy. Its a collective irresponsibility. What about the selectors? Why is Sachin in the team...for his current form or for the past records? Why is Shehwag in the team? What is Kaif doing? What role is Pathan's? \nThe much hyped coach also seems to be clueless. Experimenting has reached comic to hopeless proportions. The amount of aggression the coach shows in front of the camera seems to be missing in what he coaches...\nAs far as the players are concerned...no one seems to be in form except an occasional flash in the pan!\nOne billion people, and tons of money with BCCI. Youth hungry for livelihood and career. Can't the BCCI start a grass-root development program and start identifying talent. Cant BCCI make bouncy pitches exclusively for practise ahead of SA/NZ tours?\nAny discussion about cricket has become an intellectual masturbation in the country!!!!

Without doubt sachin will make a strong comeback. he is a great player and done has done wonders for the team. i agree hes had a rough one and half year but i sure hes going to be back in great force as hes a player with great potential and abundance of experience.

I believe blame of this thumping defeat should go to Chappel; just because his principle is awfull and much self-centered politician like. He is experimenting with batting order for long and this time it is total failure. His experiment with batsmen count or bowler count in the final team is also horrible. He is making the team more pathetic day by day by making everybody dependent. The more often changes what he is making should stop otherwise India is heading for a really gloomy future.

As per selector opinion they said saurav can show his form in domestic matches if he performs well he will be taken back to the indian team.\n\nRecent dometic matches were horrible for saurav so it is almost finalized that he can only watch international matches. \n\nJust say bye bye to him.

yeah u can say this defetes are shameless defetes.last 4 series India didnt play well. dravid is oki. he tried with this team to win. but this team is not perfect. young players played well in some matches. but now this is proved that they r not prepared to play in this highest lavel of cricket. team selectors have to think more about the young players. they need to bring back players like Shourav Ganguly, Laxman, Nehra. Chappal should resign. He isnt the perfect man for India. He is a gud coach. But he is not appropriate for this team. His methods r unique but not useful. So kick him out. Vensarkar & pawar has to attend this matter. Dont go for money, think for ur team. Dont do POLITICS with Indian Cricket.

GANGULY LOST HIS SELF-CONFIDENCE.\nCAN YOU SAY FRANKLY, HOW MUCH MATCHES HE TOOK TO SCORE  9000-10000 RUNS?\n\nFIRST HE NEEDS A COUNSELLING.\nHE MUST RE-GAIN HIS SELF-CONFIDENCE FIRST.\nAFTER THAT, SELECTORS AND COACH FIND NO WAY TO IGNORE GANGULY.

here's a joke:\nChappel  and Co. asked a jyotisi how to improve the performance of team india. he replied that the only solution is to make chappel the coach.\n"But he is already our coach" everyone shouted.\nJyotisi: Not ur coach. But of the team ur playing against.\n\nI guess u know my answer.

not all the great and legend players are good captains. \n\nDravid ofcourse he is the spine for all the indian victories from last decade but i dont think he is the right person.\n\nsee what is happening, i am not criticising because it lost the series with WI , but  to become a good team , they have to win in alien places. \n\nand until now dravid won in india , pakisthan  even pakisthan is sub continent and similar pitches like home. its not enough.they have to win overseas series convinsingly.\n\nuntil that we cant deciede wether he is right or wrong. may be time will give right answere

Definitely for the SA tour they could have taken a different approach in view of the world cup.\nWe know the ability and performance of the above players who are not consistent recently. So there was an obligation to test the ability of the other players who are not in the team now as well as new talents. \nSo in the SA tour itself these players could have been avoided and Ganguly, Dineshkarthik, Yograj Singh, Badarinath, Rohit Sarma, YMahesh and let the above players to perform in the coming domestic matches...\nHowever the people who have the right to take decision are thinking some other way...They are not thinking the others are also Indians and they will get chance for India only...\n\nSo some of the poor guys may follow \nKP Bhasker, former Delhi captain who was the most prominent, had an average of 70+ for continous 5 years in domestic cricket never got an entry to the national team only because of our poor selection strategy. \nor\nsome may get a chance at their olden age like Robin Singh has been selected.\n\nSo itz their choice, If the nation wins or looses that makes no difference for them.They are their to rule, control and fool us...

this is the most professional combo of captain-coach in history of indian cricket. but there is no good team to back them up. so the whole team has to be blamed if they lose, not only dravid-chappell
