    just heard that dravid has been removed from the captaincy.......i think that pretty much sucks........dravid has been treated very unfairly......he's the best batsman in india, and it's not fair to drop him from the captaincy without giving him a chance.

    granted that ganguly has a terrific record as a captain, and has those street fighter instincts, but he's out of form and luck both, wonder how long he's gonna survive

    I don't think it's unjust because Ganguly's captaincy was never under question. It was just the media creating the hype. He was given the entire series because it would have been unfair of them to have taken the captaincy away the minute Ganguly got permission to play so they made him captain for the entire series so he'd have something to focus on.

    And what do you guy's say to Zaheer Khan being dropped from the team? If it was done on grounds of attitude like the papers say, I suppose no one can complain.

    man ganguly might be a great one day player...but in tests he SUCKS big time...neway..i still think it's unfair for dravid......he does all the dirty work but never gets the credit he deserves

    about zaheer....well he is an underperformer and so had to be dropped

    I don't think there is anyone in Indian or World cricket who underestimates Dravid or does not give him credit.


    Rahul Dravid has been my favourite player since 1996 when he made his debut...I faced people's curses and vents and saw him progress to become the player he is today. I, however big a fan I might be, am not blind. I know Sourav is a better captain than him and acknowledge it. It might be unfair for dravid but Indian cricket does not run for Rahul. It runs for the team and the team is what is important.


    and to say that Sourav sucks in tests is just ignorant in my opinion.

    Dravid is the best no doubt bout that, but u should understand that ganguly is the best captain india has ever had, sum of the decisions taken by dravid in sri lanka were really dumb, that can be understood since he's hardly got any experience as a captain. Bout the series in zimb.(bout to start) why did the selectors kick kumble out of the ODI? he did an amazin job in sri lanka!Same thin wid balaji, the selectors said they kicked him out cause of his bad performance in sri lanka, the pour guy only played 1 game there,he's a really good tail-ender wid pathan.The selectors chose shewag as vice-captain,what the hell are these selectors thinkin.Over all,gud luk to the team,rahul's been always the match winner and ganguly the better captain.

    I think Ganguly is by far the most amazing captain India has ever had.He's not a bad batsman too. Lets not forget he has crossed 10000 runs in one day cricket. One 4 people have achieved it till now.Its a big big thing. We should be more fair to Dada.
    I think having the most brilliant players int the team is not the only important task. How to group them ,how to motivate them, how to manage them is more imp. Ganguly sure knows that. GANGULY IS DAMN AWESOME AS CAPTAIN . HE HAS AN AMAZING SPIRIT AND AMAZING ATTITUDE IN THE FIELD.
