MI are too dependant on sachin, jayasuriya to fire. Yesteday duminy played well, but when they play against better opposition like DC or DD they cannot get away with such a bad batting display. But sachin is in good form so hopefully we will se MI in the semis.

yeah exactly... there r lots of players who can do it like bravo and harbhajan who r performing below their level... shikar dhawan is big flop...
REdiff discussion board shd change its name to I HATE SOURAV GANGULY FORUM what a pity This is why in INDIA even if u do well for ur country people will abuse u
JUST BCOZ HE IS NOW 37 YR OLD AND CANNOT PLAY LIKE HE USED TO PLAY IN HIS YOUNGER DAYS PEOPLE R ABUSING HIM what abt sehwag and gautam they r younger enough than ganguly then why r they failing?
WE INDIANS SHD NOT FORGET THAT HE HAS 18700 INTL RUNS FOR INDIAN TEAM NOT FOR PAKISTAN AND HE MADE INDIAN TEAM AFTER MATCH FIXING SCANDAL WHEN EVEN SACHIN LEFT CAPTAINCY
DADA NE HAMARI TEAM KO MUSHKILON MEIN SAMBHALA THA, EK GREAT PLAYER ITNI NINDA HAMARI SANSKRITI KO SHOBHA NAHI DETA
The biggest problem of KKR is none other than Ganguly's crybaby attitude, politics and lies that he played when he came to know he was not going to be the captain. He lied to the media saying he was not consulted neither he knew about the multiple captaincy theory, Buchanan then had no choice but to reply through media and he clarified Ganguly was kept in loop and knew everything, SRK supported Buchanan's idea but he did not say Buchanan was lying. It clearly meant that Ganguly used media and went crybaby playing politics. He has a ego problem and loves to show his power, which is only limited to the municipality of Kolkata and Howrah.
The entire Ganguly episode has affected the team performance and the spirit in the dressing room. Dhoni was right in sacking Ganguly from ODI's before the triangular in Australia, SRK should learn from him and follow his footsteps if he wants KKR to start winning.

Sooner Ganguly is removed better it is for KKR. He just plays politics and groupism. Dhoni did the right thing and SRK should do the same. Even now if Dada is removed atleast KKR can win some respect. Dada this is cricket and not the place to lay eggs.!!!.

Talent which kept him in the odi side from 2001 to 2005? by scoring runs only against minnows. Talent which showed after ICC modified one day rules and allowed bowlers to bowl one bouncer per over from 2001 and we all saw how many runs and how many hundreds ganguly scored after that. Talent of averaging 27 to 30 runs against Australia, SA, Pak, WI, all which had the best bowlers of their time and Ganguly was a puppy to them. Zero hundreds in ten years between 1995 to 2005 against McGrath, Warne, Ambrose, Walsh, Akram, Waqar, Donald and Pollock plus an average of less than 27 which shows what his talent was. Did he remain in the indian team because of the talent which i have shown above? or was it sum1 called Dal-mey-kalimiya from bengal who kept him in the side. An ODI specialist he was and that is it !!!

VERY TRUE. KKR supporteres were backing him in last edition when we were criticizing him & now he backstabed them also by dropping ganguly from the captaincy.
