Hype, Hoopla and a media circus
by Aniruddha Sengupta on Sep 16, 2007 01:13 PM

A good cricket pro may have a life of around 10 to 12 years. Indian cricket has been blessed with some exceptional cricket players who are contemporaries. Whatis wrong in a guy being captain for 2 yrs. and then moving on? Rahul is an exceptional pro and instead of trying to see it in a positive light the media goes to town with a "crumbling wall" and other stories. Just because we are not used to seeing leaders - political, business or in any other field willingly demitting office, does not mean that an exceptional Indian pro should not take different path. For god's sake allow people to do their own thing! Rahul Dravid, take a bow!

Sachin, we are waiting to see WC 2011 in your hand.

Sachin, come on. Take this chance of Captaincy. In your last two terms there had been lot of traitors (with
betting) in the team and made you as unsuccessful captain as record. Now take the young team and drive in
your own way and we Indian eagerly waiting to see WC 2011 in your hand.
We donot have any doubt in your dedication to the game and nation. We respect you and you are the ICON, only

test record
team won historic test series in WI England in won test in SA under dravid captaincy also dravid named by ICC as captain of ICC test team last year stat prove dravid did good job as test and odi captain.
Odi record for ind captains
Test record of ind last 3 capains.
Names       Matches       Won       Lost       Drawn win loss raito

Tendulka       25       4       9       12 0.44
Ganguly       49      29      13   ;    15       1.62
Dravid              25      8       6       11       1.33
In less than 2 yrs dravids achievement as captain praiseworthy but ind media/ex cricters always keep on dravid bashing while no guts highlight the dirty polotics of 2 ex captains tendulkar wants to be captain and ganguly did not want to harm his stat as successful captian. Dravid gave 100%performance when he played under ganguly and tendulkar but betrayed by superstars.
sick tendulakr andpolitician gangauly betryaed dravid and tendulkar want become captian and ganguly did not want harm the stat as successful captian. both are jealous of dravid success as captain and even chief selector never respected or supported dravid as captain.
chappell highlighted the dirty politics of thendulkar and ganguly and kicked out now dravid made victim and forced to resign
what is the?r to selct? when 2ex captains workd so hard to bring down dravid and tendulakr wnated to become captian the dirty politics of 2ex captains were highlighted by chappell and he was shown the door now dravid made vicitm.
sick tendulakr and politician ganguly are cur

when sachin was given cap two times before he had not had power choose his own team as it is today. Then
there had been lot of traitors in the team, involved in the betting and made Sachin unsuccessful captain. Even
Ganguly betrated him before taking cap from Sachin.

During his tennure as cap his run average did not come down much (within and less than 2) which is
significant.

So Sachin is suitable for cap any time.
only he needs to get rid of traitors.

Do not try to give lame excuses. If you look at Sachin's own batting record, it was very bad. That is why he opted out of captaincy.

Any Indian captain, is going to suffer this. Sachin's batting will again go down, if he takes up captaincy again. Pls see it for yourselves.

btw, Pawar was very happy that Dravid resigned from captaincy. So that he can crown one more mumbaikar....

politicians get out from board...

dravid is better captain but ditched by 2excaptains and chief selector
by Suman Bhat on Sep 16, 2007 09:07 AM  | Hide replies

ind media has not guts highlight dirty dressing room politics of politici of ganguly and tendulkar
dravid is pillar for ganguly success and suppoted tendulkar when 93% voted against him after WC debacle. both ditched dravid with dirty politics
chappell higlighted the dark side of 2 superstar ex captain and shown door
now dravid forced to resign even after a good job as captain
politician ganguly media hyped captian took the credit of hardwork done by other players while dravid shared credit of victory with his teammates without going to media or spotlight
It is unforunate decision and dravid made vicitm of dressing room dirty politics of 2ex captains of team ind and forced to resign.
dravid as a captain did good job icc had nominated him for captian of yr last year. team won odis and test series without tendulkar and ganguly under dravid's captincy. but 2 ex captains and chief selector never respected or cooperated dravid's captaincy. chappell highlighted the dressing room politics of 2 superstar ex captins and shown door making him scapegoat for WC debacle. now dravid made victim
dravid is most successful odi captin. he did good job as captain in less than 2 yrs he surpassed ganguly' recored.
Odi record for ind captains
Names       Matches       Won       Lost       Drawn/TiedWon%
Kapil Dev       74       40      32       2       54.05%

Then you make a captain who do not score, so after getting
captaincy if he does not score then his own average will not go down !
