It's true Viv got MoM for his captaincy only. The match you are talking about was played in Delhi a week earlier than the Mumbai match

Bob Willis was given MoM for his economical bowling figures 9-4-9-1 in that match, not for his captaincy
if one were to follow these stats,SACHIN,SOURAV,GABHIR are the only Indians to reach this landmark in a single year, one looks back at the treatment meted out to Sourav who undoubtedly is one of the greatest Indian captains EVER,ONE IS ASHAMED AT HOW PLAYERS ARE PAWNS AT THE HANDS OF THESE CORRUPT,selfish,gold-diggerslike sharad,lolit,rajev shookla & co.Wish these morons get thrown out of this board and our great legends get to run the board overlooked by an independent authority with strictly no monetary benefits.

Saurav was not ill treated at any time. It was the hue and cry of his supporters when he was dropped for pathetic display of his. Just because a batsman scores 1000 runs in one year he can not be included in the team for that reason for rest of his life.

he would have fit very well in the role of a Non-Playing Captain if there was such a role like there is in Tennis Davis Cup
