Have been reading the IPL fake blog which is creating flutters all over. One thing I can conclude for sure from the blog posts is that DADA is a hurt man. He is unhappy with the way he has been handled by the coach and owner of the franchisee. His pride is hurt, his ego has been dented big time. He is the best captain India has ever had and would ever have. He has ridiculed all the set rules, he has single handedly changed the mindset of the young cricketers in the country and gave them self belief that they can be the best if they work hard and not care about backing. He has been the leader of men in a country which had none. He has led his troops in a proud and remarkable way all the years. He has transformed meek abroad Indian teams to winning teams abroad. He has carved playing careers for likes of Dhoni, Veeru, Gautam, Yuvraj, Zaheer and Harbhajan.
Alright we all know this. But the treatment meted out to the great man has been poor and ridiculous. SRK has been vocal and diplomatic in handling this issue. In real sense he is the one who has messed up more on this issue than Buchanan. He anyway never was a coach, but a manager who never performs and always speaks jargons which mean nothing. His wisdom on the cricket field can be judged by a simple fact that he didn’t remove the stray balls off the nets in the run up to the 4th Ashes Test which ultimately his team lost and lost the Ashes in 2005. No need for me to tell who stepped on the stray ball and what happened thereon.
There were talks of dropping Ganguly out of the team. And get whom? Chopra or Bangar? Somebody whose selection in T20 itself is questionable. One of them is a Test batsman who at best could hold one end and make no runs. The other one was a dibly dobly wobbly bubbly. He last played for India in 2004. And since then he has lost even in the Ranji games. Who got them in the team? Certainly not Ganguly. Or some obscure Bengal Ranji player? One of them is the fake blogger as he mentions he was born in Calcutta. Who replaces the man of stature of Ganguly? And based on the cricket wisdom of a nachaniya SRK ? (haha I got sholay mindset). What good does he know on the game besides his routine terms “hot and cold” ,”hugs and kisses” and stuff like that ? IS he going to decide if Ganguly gonna play? If the great man flops, surely dump him of the team, but if you do it for politics or appeasing a dumb founded coach, then you make a ullu of yourself.
