Abnd regarding the issue of Dravid opening .. I think there is a bigger politics involved ... Sachin has already booked the place ... and they dont want to end up in a situatuion where they need to replace an inform opener with Sachin.
And remember India started winning after a long drought ... which involved Sri Lanka and Holland tournaments and the home series against Pakistan... all due to guru greg's experiment.
The funda is simple.. all have their ideas .. some experiment more some less... but the hero is recognised a hero only when he is succesful. | 9 more ODIs to experiment with no match practise of team as final team . How can one think of playing with stangers? Do you see any change in Ausis or SA or Eng team in WC and now. Well I don't think so. Greg can't handle Big playes thats why he wants them out. I do aggre with you on your point for Sachin. This is ame happen to Sourav.  | | |  | | | | |

Naveen Bhai , watching too many Hindi 24 * 7 news channels. Coz this seems to me to be a question straight out of Star NEws or Aaj Tak . I can just picture the "experts" Saba Karim and Nikhil Chopra discussing this latest development "threadbare" .
Dude, just becasue of one bad series , we dont pull out the daggers. Why this quesiton wasn't asked when India was winning. Sometimes we need to accept that the other team plyed better . But this does not mean that our team is bad. And by no strech of imagination this points to Greg Chappel's "Sinister" plan to "sabotage" India so that good ol' Aussies lift the cup ,

This is ame happen to Sourav. | experiments when 9 odis are left  ...well..whatever it is ... good or bad .... it shud be attributed to his coaching talent rather than his purposely doing so to allow Australia win the world cup.
Chappel or No Chappel .. Australia are still gonna beat India!
And the 4-1 series loss had more to do with poor batting rather than experiments.
The Indian batsmen failed to adjust to the slow tracks there .. and it is a failure on Chappel's part .. that he cud not coach them properly for such kind of tracks.
But making way for Australia ... i believe is too far fetched. | | | | | | | |

After losing this ODI series our chances of winning the World cup have actually improved
About Greggie cheating.. That depends on his salary. I heard it was more than 1 crore. I believe Greggie is not stupid

Cant understand what is happening to Pathan. First he lost his pace ,then swing & now line & length.Hope he has a greeat test series & hopefully Laxman & Kumble can make their presence felt.
Absolutly absurd to thing that Chappel is doing it on purpose to make India weak!!Aussies will make it to Semis anyway.Cant see how can you deduce that India is a going to be a big threat to Aussies. | | | | | | | |

i am a bit confused.is this a cricket forum?i mean,what is this we have a new thread starting on such cricket topics time and again.sachin past his prime, sehwag past his prime, rahul or greg-who is behind india's success,and now this,is greg working for aussies?just spare a thought, what will happen if such flurry starts in even a few other sports threads.can fedex beat nadal,is schumi past his prime,epl is best and so on.
there is already a thread on cricket discussion and trivia(as every1 knows), all this can be kept to that.
n regarding my opinion on the title of the tread- it is not true.
