Greg chappel's tenure as coach
by srirama chandra rao on Feb 13, 2015 04:18 PM

It is all controversial during his time as coach. But all these coming now which should have come when he was in charge of affairs. What is the use of bringing all those issues now whether correct or incorrect

1.With sachin in 90s India was only 5th best team in the world. There were no significant victories for india except in India where Anil Kumble’s heroics won the matches for India
2.      Until 90s commercial aspect of cricket was very low and just when sachin made his debut commercials increased and sachin benefited out of this immensely as he was made popular by the media and corporates for their benefit.
3.Thanks to the Indian team of early and mid 80s, cricket became popular in India and Sachin became the beneficiary of this.
4.      The other greats of India such as Dravid, Sehwag , youvraj and laxman who produced quality knocks to the Indian side arrived late in the scene by which time popularity was already stolen by this tendu who throughout 90s got knocks that ended in losing cause but did not deter his popularity.
5.He got special treatment because he is from Mumbai. He got selected at that age because he is from Mumbai. He was never dropped from the team even when he was not performing for prolonged periods because he is from Mumbai. His career prolonged because he is from Mumbai. He got proper send off because he is from Mumbai. Got special treatment from everybody because he is from Mumba. Made popular because he is from Mumbai. Considered to be the greatest player because he is from Mumbai. There are far too many better cricters in the world than Sachin

HaHaha ..... Mr. Naveen, please keep us entertaining us with your circus antics. Cuz at this time we are really low on confidence. Your joker like antics will help us get back our lost spirit, which is to laugh at all expanses.

6.      Steve Waugh famously quoted, Indians are happy if sachin gets a hundred and the team looses
7.      Sachin struggled against quality bowlers such as Mcgrath, Ambrose. Lucky, he never faced West Indian great fast bowlers
8.      Most of the knocks of his have come for his records and to please his advertisers at the cost of the team.
9.      Most of india’s victories were caused by players such as Sehwag, Laxman, Yuvraj , Bhajji and kumble who played their cricket selflessly and got rejected by the people of this coutry and BCCI when it came to being recognized.
10.      Whenever Sachin was the best player in the match, the Indian team would lose.
11.      Over a period of 24 years of cricket, his only good knocks were that 98 against Pakistan and that double hundred against SA.
12.      His run rate never reflected the team’s requirement and his Test match knocks were agonizingly slow. He did not possess the ability to play according to the situation.
13.      Miserably failed as a captain
14.      Sachin selfishly always took the best place in the team no. 4 in tests and opener’s place in the team despite the presence of better players in the team at various times.

15.      His huge no. of runs is like Dry Leaves which do not have any weight.
16.      Begged his colleagues to win the world cup for him as he could not win one. Imagine a great player begging others to win a world cup for him.
17.      Got special treatment from BCCI and selectors throughout his career.
18.      Had wrong priorities in cricket. First his knocks even at the cost of the team to please his advertisers and average Indian cricket fans( who are huge in No.s) and then team
19.      Funds his fans to support him. He pays money to his fans (close fans) to support him.
20.      Sachin never possessed the abilities of a great sports person. True he was blessed with some ability .He however neither had the spirit of Maradona, nor the commanding power of Viv Richards, nor the shot making ability of Sehwag or for that matter any quality of a ture champion.
21.      Sachin has been constantly seen over defending when reaching a land mark such as a hundred. Great players cannot possess these kinds of cheap attitudes as great players are decided on the basis of their attitude. Yes that’s right, great players are differentiated by their attitude
22.      Constantly Succumbed under pressure. Whenever faced with a run rate of 5.5 and above, he struggled; facing quality oppositions, quality bowling attacks, he struggled.

23.      Whenever, sachin is the best player in the team, the team would invariably loose except in those cases when bowlers perform out of their skin or other batmen get some match changing knocks.
24.      Sachin is a pampered and spoiled player.
25.      Popularity cannot be the standard to analyze anybody’s greatness as criminals, terrorists; underworld dons too are popular in their circles, groups and countries.
26.      It is widely argued that, 50 out of sachin’s hundreds 100s, have resulted in victories. If we analyze all those 50 matches, we can make out that Sachin was not the match winner in those matches. Real match winners were other players. For instance, Sachin got 196 against Pakistan in a test match that India won. However the match winning knock was played by Viru with his triple hundred. In the VB series that India won, bowlers performed phenomenally well to win the trophy for India and did not allow the aussy to post huge totals.
27.      A similar argument is also put forward by Sachin fans that when india

Sachin was spotted very early for his international cricket. He is lucky in that may be because he was from Mumbai where dominance also waw there in earlier days. Dravid and others started their careeers after six to seven years of Tendulkar's debut though they are all under same age group. That way Tendulkar got popularity because of long innings and record breaking runs in international cricket in test cricket and ODIs.It is not easy to play more than two decades continuously in international cricket even with all backing
