This is the worst side in the world at anything cricket. Hopeless flash in the pan jokers. Full egos with players that play only for the self, some 'stars' conveniently say injured when there's danger of dropping, like SRT. Play for self and records.
In a game played by 7 countries (leave WI now, so 6), India never been the no.1 ranked country even after 80 years. Shame.
They are not prostiutes you can do whatever u want, u can use them when u want throw them out whenver u want. BCCI is controlled by people & palying only money games.
if u want remove players like Ganguly, Dravid,sachin,yuvraj, & kumble they are to taken in to confidence because they are great players,members of selection committee are also not great as compared to these greats. BCCI Should respect & learn to remove the great players.
A coach should have a lot of qualities - strict disciplinarian, friendliness, judge of a person, game etc, Hard task master.... He should show these qualities at various times to the player as well as the team.
Our India team has ordinary players who think they are stars, probably th e money made them think so or the media or the crazy fans made them think so.
So we need a person like chappel as a coach ( he may not have all qualities) who will command respect from all indians. Sunny or Kapil could be ideal but they are far too tough to deal with.
Our players and board want people who are flexible.
Look chappel insisted on fielding and youngsters. We blamed him and sent him away, but the players he groomed are the ones in the playing X1.
it will be no surprise if india lose the series and may also be white wash.... gary is not a worthy coach and prasad and singh did a good job without any coach and won many series and tournaments... only after kirsten appeared the team's performance degraded in all the depts.
India was on peak in fielding standard when Chappel was coach. When Robin Singh came Indian fielding standard is decreasing day by day. We are dropping 2-3 catches in every match. We are seeing mis-fielding from Yuvi, Gambhir, Raina like players. Good decision of BCCI. But I think Prasad was doing an average job. He could continue.
BCCI s removal of Dravid, not taking Uthappa, pushing Kumble to retire during middle of the tournamant are not really poor performance of those players. It was intended to eleminate people from that region. That's it. If it was poor performance it lies with so called world class players we have in playing eleven. Sack those poor performers. Who is managing the team at the time of particular day is headed by. then sack his captaincy??? why these people I say.
Not everyone is as lucky as you are Kapil... In last 5-6 years of career you didnt do anything for the team.. but you were still in the team ...not every one is luck like you so I can see why are upset

And also Tendulkar is still glued to the Indian Team till he completes 25 tears in the team, so that nobody can beat his all of his records in the game. Wonderful!.

There are huge numbers of more talented players in vast India. Just picking talent is required. why leaning on non performing player ? just because he is TENDULKAR what ! ?

more talented players like Feroze Ghayas - He had scored a century for Bihar against Bengal in Ranji, Obaid Kamal - He took the wicket of Manoj Mudgal in Ranji. Ashish Kapoor - Great off spinner of India, How can you forget. Sujith Somasunder, Vikram Rathore.

Common man... if you are said that u will never be dropped then definitely any good player can score 40 centuries while opening. Just look at the last 15 centuries and on how many occassions did he come to field after century...????Not many...Also how many times India when wanted a good start Sachin got out cheaply...always pressure on Middle order when batting second to score 250 .....Think boss we have made Him GOD because he is always opens the innings and whenever he wants to take rest he takes and come back as if it is his home...thats not professional...

There are so many talented players dear, What about S.Badarinath & Shikar Dhawan and why Pragyan ojha dropped ? Ojha is far more better spinner than Harbhajan & why Dhawal kulkarni & Manpreet Goni have been denied chances ?

pragnesh i think u are big 0 when it comes to cricket talen,sachin never started off as a opener,he was a middle order batsman,once when sidhu was injured in NZ in 95,sachin opened the inning....even during 2007 WC & before 2003 WC sachin was batting at no 4. & also u said last after scoring 15 centuries ,he didnt came to field,which other freat player comes to field after scoring,barring a yuvraj or sehwag,saeed anwar never came to field,brian lara never came,nor did inzy,so wats the big deal.. & why u want a flyer start always from sachin ?? why cant other opener give & i believe sachin opening has helped india chase big totals always,2003 WC india - pakistan,2007 series of england,where he got out 3 times in 90's,out of which twice we were chasing 300 ,2007 india -= pakistan series in india,again sachin got out twice in 90's while chasing,also in new zealnd this year...do u watch cricket ? & tell me who else at domestic level or international level can play tat straight drive or cover drive or a flick or a hook - pull & bowl medium pace,leg spin - off spin as efficiently as sachin ??

Why everybody worshiping Tendulkar !? Does anybody wants him to play criket till he himself wishes to retire even though he not in form !? OK Tendulkar is a GRAET batsman agreed.But where is the result ?Leave it to performance. We just want good results in India's favour. Tendulkar at the moment is not in form, that is sure. make the way for who are talented and in form. That is all.

who else is in form apart from gambhir ? has dhoni ever scored a 100 after his 2nd ,183 against sri - lanka,1st of all he should be thrown out. tendulkar not in form for 2 matches make ur stomach go soar,what about dhoni,raina earlier yusuf,idiots like jadeja,kohli & some more south indian idiots & some more big tamil nadu idiots...what big have they done even at domestic level...give a name from this vast india ...who can be a replacement for a player like sachin.eK4Kw
They would have give warning first then also dong same perponce. They would have sacked. They would have give enough time to set right the team. Both are doing really job. All of sudden......
