Shuting mouth
by SUKOMAL SEN GUPTA on Apr 14, 2005 05:24 PM

It is really unfair to do such comments by the name of such a cricketer who got near about 15000 international runs under his belt. Not only that, he is the most successful captain India has ever produced. So, please shut up your mouth. His bat will give the proper answers to all of them who got a merely 29 to 32 average in one day international and nowadays are talking too much.

With best regards

Sukomal Sen Gupta

Unfair on Ganguly
by Somasekhar V K on Apr 14, 2005 04:37 PM

I pity Ganguly. Instead of supporting him when he needs it our `armchair' critics simply criticize. He has been a good captain won laurels for India. Brought fame, knit the team and brought cohesion. So when he is out of form,let us try and make him come back. After all it is not easy to go there out in the middle and perform always.

Those who have not played cricket must shut up!! It is easy to watch from cosy shades and discuss matters but difficult to go and face the ball in the middle. So let us learn to appreciate talent rather than shoot our mouth?

Ganguly will play with his bat, yeah it is a different thing that he will not score a single run. (Tan ki shakti man ki shakti - Use Dabur Chawanprash)

Mr More

Mr More was never good enough himself & he is now the Chairman of the National Selection panel. he decides for thelikes of Saurav, Sachin & Dravid. Good Luck team India & Best of luck to millions of Indians who expect that the team selected by such a bunch of jokers can win matches for them.

Stop this Non-sense !!!!

Its a ridiculous way of functioning, typical of the BCCI. Ganguly being forced to go in the middle of the series is understandable. And so is the fact that Rahul was appointed as the Captain. What is inexplicable,is the buzz that Sourav might return to lead the side for the 5th ODI as his appeal is being considered.

What do we take Dravid to be ? Captaincy is a helluva tough job...and more so, in these circumstances... 3 days before a match ur appointed the skipper, one day before the game, ur not too sure....its not easy on any player to focus and refocus so easily....In the past, dravid has led the side within a day's notice... sometimes, being asked to lead hours before the start of play. and he has done an exceeellent job.. but that does not mean tht we take him for granted....Everything has its limits.. and this is it.

The selectors must put their foot down and ask Dravid to lead the side for the remainder of the series... regardless of the outcome of the appeal.
Its time we give Dravid the respect he deserves and look at him as the next Captain of the Indian team.

Ganguly's suspension for 6 matches
by E.V.R.Parthasaradhi on Apr 14, 2005 02:30 PM

While I share the corcern of everybody on Ganguly'form as a batsman,I feel it is unfair to ban him for 6 matches for the following reasons.
1.BCCI and PCB are guilty of fixing the matches in hot and humid summer.
2.ICC should have considered climatic conditions also while framing the rules for number of overs to be bowled per hour...
3.If according to the present rules Ganguly the Captain is responsible for slow overrate ICC can remove his captaincy only.It is for the Selection Committee of BCCI to select him as a player or not.
