Foolish people like you are the cause of all rot in our country. Jealous of others achievement having done nothing in life, it is the definition for people like you
Indian cricketers are not used to strong words. They are used to see people worshiping them, not criticizing them. They became very perplexed and angry they were confronted by Chappell. Chappell actually wanted to let them know that there is no 100% sure spot for any of them in the team. They were so comfortable in the team, Chappell took that comfort away, that is why they are so angry.
All will say......indian cricket is what is today because of Greg............all others will wash away their responsibilities.........blame it on Harry !!

Harbhajan and Ganguly made it public and got slaps.Sachin complained BCCI but they did nothing
The ventings of Indian veterans clearly shows lack from BCCI side to choose the right coach. How can we expect merit from a bunch who are always behind money making.

really?? did they.... so it was some other team which defeated NZ in NZ.... Played Aus 2-1 in 2008.. mind u sydney test was biased.... drew SA on their own turf.....
After Chappell left Tendulkar had an avg of 63 for next 4 years in test... india defeated eng in eng the moment chapell left....
BTW.. this is sachin's autobiography... he is going to say some words against a few guys..... and abt not speaking earlier... it would have been out f turn and BCCI Sec. Rajiv Shukla accepted Tendulkar had told them abt it....
He couldn't accept the defeat of Australia in the hand of India. His only mission was to destroy the sprit of Indian Cricket team. Whole India know the relation between Sourav & him, now Sachin open his pen, Bhajji & Zahir also expressed their feelings. We already read about Laxman but why

Now everybody will follow about how they were 'screwed' by Greg ! Typical Indian behavior..
Greg Chappell was one of the finest player of his time and compared to Gavaskar but was villain to many Indian Players during his stint as a Indian Coach that created a rift between player and that affect their performances and Indian Team could never be able to perform to its full potential except one or two series wins. But the same Indian Team with same players took India to Number One position in all formats of the game under Gary Kirstien. It shows that a good coach can take team to the peak of Everest and a bad coach can take the same team to the Mardiana Trench (deepest point in the world).

lets not forget Gary Kirsten was successful in subcontinent conditions alone. The moment there were tougher conditions like the infamous 2011-12 tours to Aus and England, he quit saying he needed personal time, only to return back as South Africa coach. Look at his stint at IPL- complete disaster. He is no magical coach. Greg just pushed back the seniors for not trying hard enough in practice. Moreover, if you see the current except, it only mention him asking Sachin to lead, and too he has denied.

You say that Chappel is correct just because he rejected the claim?It is hard to find a bigger slave to the whites.
Expiry date cricketers making a hero out of an expiry date coach.Who will do case study and improve? DCCI is a bunch of_jokers and selfish_thugs.Anti-national DCCI gifted Asian games gold medal to Pakistan,it should be banned.

True. But where were Sachin Rahul Kumble Laxman then? Only Bhajji, Viru and to a lesser extent Yuvi stood by Sourav
