Team India vs Chappell












So, Finally Sachin Tendulkar and other Senior players have taken over Greg Chappell for letting them down (not for letting the country down).

Although, Sachin is a kind of person, who does not react to the comments so easily, but his silence broke off after reported comments by Guru Greg for the senior members. He says,"During my 17 years career, I've worked with so many coaches but none of them have pointed against my attitude towards cricket and ...."

Within few hours of that, news came that Greg Chappell has resigned from the post (If he would not have resigned, he would have been sacked)

In Greg's words, Team India has "absolutely no respect for the management" and that "they were too haughty to handle."
Further the senior players behave like "mafia" who are playing for own selves and do not allow the younger talent to flow in.
Ian Chappell added to the fire by saying that Sachin is now on the verge of decline and suggesting that he is playing now for himself.

Few days before, I came to know through my friend that during a discussion on a News channel, an Income tax commissioner made a statement that few of the players are taken in the team only because of the pressures of their sponsors (Big corporates). Hefty sums are being paid to BCCI members and the selectors for that. Shameful, if its true.

Kiran More added up,"Chappell is straight forward person and in India it is not liked." Now, what does that mean, our players are not able to confront the issues taken up by Chappell.

Instead of finding the solutions, everyone is busy in blaming others, Greg says, team does not support me. The players say,"He is trying to behave like a dictator."
No one is interested in finding solutions, Media is busy in raising up the issues again and again, BCCI trying to find excuses for India's loss.
But where is the solution? Is the situation going to continue like that?

They say Coach and the Captain will be changed, Are they sure, things will change then?
It was not only the coach and the captain, who lost, it was the Team who lost. They need a real thrashing for that. When C grade teams like Ireland and Bangladesh and enter super 8, India can not, just because every player is busy in politics and Advertisements.

Actually, Team India (at present) is not a team, it is a bunch of "individual" players, playing for their own records and own selves. Politics is an inherent part of BCCI as well as the Team. The situation is worsening instead of improving.

Lets Just wait and watch the outcomes of coming meeting of BCCI.

My dear Adithi,
You have brought out your feelings and expressed in a befitting manner and it is really very good of you.

Sachin with his other seniors just can't take over Greg directly and face to face, that's why they have opted for such dirty game. These guys can't play good cricket game, so atleast let them have the pleasure of playing dirty and tricky games. If these guys have real and sensible conscious it will keep pricking them at all times for what they have done to our country and lovers of cricket in the current WC.

It is right and appropriate time to to re-write as " MATE INDIANS"
and not "TEAM INDIA" (I have taken the priovilege of re-allocating the alphabets for a good meaning)as none of them posseses good team spirit, team discipline and code of conduct.

All these guys envy each other to create their own personal records and image, thereby screw up the matches.

The guys ,gets an opportunity will try to take over PAWAR under flimsy and dirty grounds, but chanceless as he is POWER-PAWAR and can throw the guys out at his will , whims and fancy at any time unquestionably.

All these silly billies are good to play Monkey Game and not good cricket.

Let me not go any further with my opinion as my language will turn nastier,dirtier and bitter, as of now it is Sweet and letit remain sweet.

i m sorry but i am with the entire team. what we all dont realise is that we were never a great team fav to win the cup. it was all media hype. and just one loss put pressure on us. in the past bangladesh has beates aussies, pakistan, india, and west indies. if we play bangladesh 10 times, we cud lose 2 matches and wil the remaining 8. sachin rahul and saurav have contributed a lot to indian cricket. and why blame them for making money? if some comes to me saying they want me to model for an advt, i wud also say yes. every one is in the mad race to make money. these guys are playing and makin money. just a cpl of bad matches and we cant write them off. just 2 months back they played and won home series in india against windies and lanka. its a game, haar jeet to hote rehti hai.
as far as chapell is concerned, by his looks itself he is so aggressive, and rough, how can he motivate a team? he is not known as a good and effective coach, his sportsman spirit is known, he is probably the only player in the entire history of the game to authorise his brother to bowl underarm in a match, that too cos aussies were losing. the crux of the matter is the BCCI made a blunder by appointing chappell as a coach and we all are now paying for the mess that is created. chappell is free, next week he will be smiling, back home, not at all being responsible. watch out he will write lots of dirty stuff about indian players and officials once he goes home......

Every Coin has two faces. It's on us , How we see the defeat.
Will we learn from our mistakes or just play the blame game, It's entirely on us.

According to me india team is bunch of fools they just go on blaming themselfs or coach....
If we see other teams they give the coach more importance and for losing any match they dont simply blame him...they try there best to improve in there performs and play as team ...one such example teams are srilanka,newzealand...they wer once weak teams then ours..but now i think they r improving a lot day by day....

@inktank
India team has never been just hyped, we always had best of the players, sachin, saurav, dravid,yuvraj hitters like sehwag n dhoni,what happened, everyone failing together.
Srilanka is still playing and fighting, do they have better bunch of players than ours,

Actually our team is not a team, it only consists of individual players and after saurav left as captain, our team always looked like segregated sticks and not a bundle. Our team has not performed well not just in world cup, but earlier also.
