It is obvious Greg Chappell and John Buchanan are together conspiring to drop Dada as captain. Can there be any doubts? They are both notorious enemies of Ganguly. Shah Rukh Khan should instead fire John Buchanan and hire another coach who can get along with Ganguly and Indian players.

You sound very much like an ignorant, two bit, good for nothing fan - There are two things that have happened and to the same person - Ganguly. Think, wierdo, why would an Australian go to such an extent of joining IPL and then making sure that he joins only the team where Ganguly is playing and have his vendata. On the other hand, twice Ganguly has recommended Australian Coaches and is getting his fingers burnt the 2nd time. So when you have the same person comitting the same mistake twice, then who could possibly be at fault? One is coincidence, twice means there is something terribly wrong...
Wow since Saurav Ganguly has issues with SRK he now has bcome a rank loser, Never mind coz I am not Saurav Ganguly fan but the imp. question is Will Ricky Ponting agree if some Indian coach tells him that he has to share captaincy with other foreign players for Victorian team.????????
I am sure Ricky Ponting will either slap that coach or leave Victorian team and ensure that both the owner and coach get thrown out by making it a big issue.
Saurav Ganguly should also do the same thing, In fact I am surprised he has not expressed his anguish against Jhon Buchanna :-)

Its all abt money, my dear friend!! If so much money had not been involved as is the case in victoria, dada would have openly criticized it and also srk wud hv not cared abt who captains the side. The fact is that dada is no more capable of being a good player, so the next best in rank are being handed over the job. Why, don't players from other countries captain football clubs in european leagues? What's the hue and cry about captaincy? Let the coach decide who is fit and good to be the captain.

The greed for money made Saurav reach in this worst situation that a 'natchaya' is his boss. The moment he has been purchased by KKR last year, I have thought and wrote that it is time for this great man to get out from the active game, but should become the coach or any thing else. A man when get matured should be able to keep his company tohis own level not with the youngsters. Now, once if comes out from this he will loose his reputation further. how long the culcutta people fight for him for his blunders? Even now it is time for his to quit gracefully.

Why only Saurav, will you advise Dravid or Laxman to quit their respective IPL sides becuase they too were removed from captaincy?
Re: Re: Re: Will Ricky Ponting agree if Indian coach wants him to
by Vijay Swaminathan on Apr 01, 2009 08:33 AM
Buddy, please read the papers properly - I mean national papers not Anand Bazzar Pathrika - When Dravid and Lakshman were dropped as captains there was no such hue and cry. People accepted it and so did the individuals involved. Here we have a dumb dude, who wants to hold on to the mantle of captain no matter what because then he'll be in control of things. He himself bought this upon himself by voting for coaches such as Greg Chappel and John Bucchanan. When Gavaskar adviced him against going for Greg Chappel - he ignored his advice - what happened was history... Its a fact, Bengalis only fight for him because he is a Bengali and not because he is an Indian.

Plz dont tarnish this party coz it has got some good values lolzzzzzzzz :-)
and SRK knows that very well as a bizman .Even at this moment of Indian cricket there simply cannot be a Kolkata team without Sourav and and hence no commercial sense to have a kolkta team thence. So whatever might buchanans think about new concepts ...the bizman will not allow a sourav less bengal team ... sourav is to kolkata is not the same as Dravid is to Bangalore ....in terms of popularity , sourav to dravid is similar to shahrukh is to manoj bajpayee

Re: Re: Dada is THE Knight
by Chaturchuramoni Chatterjee on Apr 01, 2009 02:31 AM
Laxman never captained India, and Dravid left captaincy of Indian side saying that he is not "enjoying" it. If Ganguly had to share captaincy duties with Ponting it was OK, but Shukla played 3 ODIs for India, McCullum never captained NZ and compare Gayle's captaincy record with that of Ganguly's.

Good analysis player by player Chaturchoramoni. None are a patch on Dada.Maybe Pointing comes close but only close, that's it.

Manoj Bajpayee is certainly a better actor than SRK and Rahul Dravid is better batsman than Saurav Ganguly atleast in test matches :-)
Re: Re: Dada is THE Knight
by sayantan bose on Apr 01, 2009 04:42 AM
guys all I think is Dada with a broken team last yera helped KKR won as many matches as 6 out of 16 with 3 Mn of the match performance. He is still a brilliant batsman and an effective bowler and his captaincy skills were never questionable. So the debate is ridiculous whether he should be captain or not.u rank him the best captain of India and now you feel he is not good enough for KKR...that is strange...take my word and he will still perform this season as well...coz he is a fighter.

I agree on popularity - when you see this bimbo talk about all events other than what he needs to be doing - he had expert comments on whether Baichung Bhutia needs to carry the olympic torch can you believe that - who asked him for an opinion. Now he is selecting cheer leaders - I think hes best fit for that role

Yup that is the only problem with Delhi dare Devils and probably that is the reason they lost out in Semi-finals otherwise they have the potential to be the best team in this competition :-)

Saurav Ganguly was highest run scorer for KKR and he won 3 MOM awards but blind morons will not understand :-)
This shows whose balls have crosed their expiry date :-)
Re: Re: @Forest Gump..........
by Vijay Swaminathan on Apr 01, 2009 08:44 AM
Freak - read the card - ponting didnt score more than 2 digits in many a match. Its same like Ganguly getting 4 out of the 5 MoM awards for the 5 match one-day series in Canada against Pakistan when Salim Malik was the captain - look what happened to Salim Malik? Also in the subsequent series we lost it 1-4. Why because its not captains fault but players didnt play... I know for sure that will be the answer coming from all manic fans of Dada. Bunch of crap - when the team wins its because of the captain, if it looses its because the player didnt play...
Re: @LeaveSRKandSachinAlone...........
by Forrest Gump on Apr 01, 2009 12:46 AM
if it makes sense why not...but why blame SRK for all this...he is just the owner(like a producer of a movie)..he can't handle everything...cricketing matters are handled by the team management and coaching staff...he of course has the final say and he has tried his best to soothe things by keeping Saurav as captain. And this whole thing would not have boomeranged if Saurav as usual did not make politics out of it encashing on some stupid bengali mobs....dravid and laxman were sacked but whole of hyd or blr did not erupt and their owners are indians too like SRK...why are they not criticized similarly? this dada bada thing has just gone too far...he has become a burden for indian cricket fans...
Re: @LeaveSRKandSachinAlone...........

by Forrest Gump on Apr 01, 2009 12:47 AM
yeah as if BLR OR HYD came out with full force when their indian captains were dropped...fortunately we have some sensible ppl like Dravid and Laxman who know how to take things sportingly unlike an eternal loser who thinks for some wild reason that the world starts and ends with him in his home city...

by Arnab Ray on Apr 01, 2009 01:00 AM
the thing is performance of dravid n laxman was really pathetic and they were never a good ODI player forget T20. So its unfair to compare the them with Saurav atleast whatever matches KKR won last year Sourav has done contribution in those...
Re: Re: Re: Re: @LeaveSRKandSachinAlone...........
by rihanna on Apr 01, 2009 08:56 AM
yup dravid scored more than ganguly and laxman averaged more than him not to mention dravid came only in tense situations such as 40 for 5 0r 10 for 3 are you crazy in fact dravid had extremely less support and ganguly had support of david hussey,lr shukla etc
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: @LeaveSRKandSachinAlone...........
by rihanna on Apr 01, 2009 09:35 AM
how abt this stat dravid had a strike rate of 125 and ganguly had a strike rate of 113 even laxman[117] had a better strike rate than ganguly
Re: Re: Re: Re: @LeaveSRKandSachinAlone...........
by seema shekar on Apr 01, 2009 04:50 PM
how can you say that dravid is not a good odi player,he has scored 10000 runs with equal str as that of ganguly,s.he is a much better fielder than ganguly.
