When Ganguly was last selected in the test team he was supported 3-2 by the 5 national selectors.  Since then the three selectors who voted for him have been replaced by the new head of the BCCI.  You decide for yourself whether he is the victim of politics.  He did not do himself any favours with indifferent form and his poor reaction to comments from Chappell.

He should be included in the ODI series, just because he has a tremendous track record in ODI. But i think he is becoming a victim of Chappels ego. He was the only man who stood against Sourav's inclusion in the recent ODI Pak tour.(Its confirmed and there was lots of reports in this issue http://in.rediff.com/cricket/2006/jan/30chap.htm) So that is really bad for Indian cricket. Let him give a chance and if they feel he cannot perform, throw him, but this is not the way to show personal grudge. But as a constant crcket fan of last 20 years, i tell you, sourav will bounce back and he wil get his chance also, no Chappel can deny him..

Yes, Sourav must, but he must get rid of Greg Chappell and Kiran More.

Sourav Ganguly has been one of the great batsmen who ever played ODI for India. But no cricketer is beyond question when he is not performing. So was the case with him. Further, he made the conversations within the dressing room public (i.e. he was asked to quit captaincy in Zimbabwe) which was an act of a person who do not have his mind in his control. Lastly, the newcomers i.e. the junior players of the Indian team are performing so well that there is no place for him in the team. Keeping all these things in mind and realising that the coach has a lesser role in team selection than the selectors, Greg cannot be accused of showing injustice to Ganguly.

Dear Mr. Dravid,\nWe knew that you are a stalwart in Indian cricket – a great batsman, epitome of consistency –"Mr. Dependable".\n\nWe did not know that you are a great actor as well!\n\nYou have exposed your crooked , dirty mind after Kotla test in Delhi . During the press conference after Delhi test , you praised  Sourav and expected more good knocks from him in the future . But before you already  had that conference with Chappell and selectors axed Sourav in Ahmedabad   test against Sri Lanka ! What a talent you possess Rahul in acting  so that you could completely fox a bunch of journalists !\n\nBut truth must prevail. You could not hide your malicious act. You exposed yourself! At least we Indian cricket lovers expected little more credibility in your word and action .\n\nApart from that in entire episode of Sourav , your stoic silence  proved to the world what a backstabber you could be when it comes to realizing your own ambitions. Rahul, you proved again  – silence is more vocal than sound !\n\nLet's see what two great captains and players of this Indian sub continent ,Wasim Akram and Arjun Ranatunga say about you on Sourav issue .\n\n \n\n \n\nWasim Akram ,thinks that  Sourav Ganguly's predicament has more to do with Greg Chappell and Rahul Dravid\n\n \n\n"I don't think the blame lies with Kiran More. Such decisions also depend on the coach and the captain's choice ."\n\n"I believe they are the people who decide the team. So, Greg Chappell and Rahul Dravid figure prominently in this scheme of things ."—said Akram .\n\n\nSame feeling is echoed by Ranatunga, the captain of World Cup champion Sri Lanka.\n\nHe clearly opined: Dravid's silence borders on complicity\n\n"I would not like to be in Rahul Dravid's shoes if I am the captain. In the entire Sourav Ganguly episode, his silence borders on complicity. He has every reason to seek the team he wants, but he also owes it to his men to be seen standing right next to them. At best he would miss out on the trust and loyalty of his mates which allows a captain to ask for the impossible; at worst he would be very unpopular in the dressing room.\n\nTruth to tell, Sourav was very impressive at the Kotla. His two knocks (40 and 39) were well crafted and critical to the eventual scores. His dismissal in the first innings triggered the collapse which only accentuates his contribution on the first day. A few of his cover drives, trust me, were the best I saw in the entire match.\n\nHe was seen giving his 100 per cent; he wanted his place back badly. Such hunger is to be welcomed, not scorned. It has not reflected well of the system, not of selectors or team management."—Ranatunga completes his stand.\n\nYes! Rahul you can dodge journalists and common cricketer lovers but not an ace player and captain of the game like legendary Akram and Ranatunga!\n\nNow this is a honeymoon phase between you and media. So whatever you do, Media backs you. Media has  hyped up  your captaincy exceedingly well.But in harsh reality are you really a captain in true sense?\n\nDuring the Tenure of Sourav you were the Deputy and so are you even now! By mere name you are the captain on the ground but in reality you are a Deputy to coach Greg Chappell! He is the de facto captain of the Indian cricket team now and you blindly follow his instruction only. You are like those goody goody studious boys in the class who score well in exam but without any  personality of their own and  totally subservient to their teacher .\n\nSourav is present in your existence by his conspicuous absence. Nowadays, your face in different occasion only reflects the tempest in your mind, guilt in your heart.\n\nAfter cricket you can join in politics as well .when India played in Eden Garden against South Africa without Sourav; you, Rahul-- tried to create division amongst Calcuttans by nullifying the protest of artists' forum in Sourav issue  by saying

I'M SURE..\nYOU DONT ASK THIS QUESTION IF CHAPPELL DIDN'T THROW GANGULY OUT.

I do not think that Greg Chappel did anything wrong.  First of all I was surprised at the M.Ps raising India's pathetic perfoprmance in South Africa as an issue and creating lot of furore as if they have no other better work to do.  It is a shame on their part to raise such issues instead of raising the issues concerning the welfare of the people.

John wright did his job wonderfully well....And greg is doing a great job. There is no point in comparing them coz they took charge of the team in different circumstances. It would be better to say Greg is continuing the building process of the indian cricket team from the stage where John left. The are helping the process of professionalisation of the Indian cricket team.

yeah u can say this defetes are shameless defetes.last 4 series India didnt play well. dravid is oki. he tried with this team to win. but this team is not perfect. young players played well in some matches. but now this is proved that they r not prepared to play in this highest lavel of cricket. team selectors have to think more about the young players. they need to bring back players like Shourav Ganguly, Laxman, Nehra. Chappal should resign. He isnt the perfect man for India. He is a gud coach. But he is not appropriate for this team. His methods r unique but not useful. So kick him out. Vensarkar & pawar has to attend this matter. Dont go for money, think for ur team. Dont do POLITICS with Indian Cricket.

Yeah should be back as the captain of Indian veterans Cricket Team.\nMay be he'll not find a place there too.\nSomone was saying that Dravid can't handle pressure and want to see him when india is down 3-2.\nWhat about the best ever captain???\nHow many final matches we had won under him????\nWe had made the record of loosing most consecutive finals.
