sandtest Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Even Anil Kumble was on record expressing concern at the team announcement just before the crucial test match. You do not play mind games on your own team. This Vengcircus has to go. He was pretty much a useless guy during his best days. No different even now just looks more devilish than before. He must be sitting in Mumbai and sipping chai-biskoot with BCCI babus and feeling vindicated, while we fans are clinging on hope that we can defeat Oz, when we all know that how it has screwed the morale of our key senior players. Now, unless Laxman and Boss play very big innings, we are done.....and expect Aussies, in case they win to come-up with statements like how constraining this spirit of the game was at Perth, which was the only reason they lost it and thus undermining our achievement at Perth.

yoda Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 As much as I hate Vengicircus, doesn't the team have to be announced as the 20/20 game is on Feb 1 and I understand it is the same team for ODIs and 20/20? Link to comment

fineleg Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 i think, Vengcircus <= Ganguly not sure. Dravid >> Vengcircus Selector Vengcircus < selector K.More Link to comment
kumble_rocks Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Agree with OP, This mad colonel unnecessarily screwed Sehwag's test career after just one bad series. And the manner in which he precipitated the ouster of Dravid and Ganguly from ODI must be unequivocally condemned by one and all. Link to comment
sandtest Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 As much as I hate Vengicircus' date=' doesn't the team have to be announced as the 20/20 game is on Feb 1 and I understand it is the same team for ODIs and 20/20?[/quote'] Yoda, why we should buy this kind of excuse given by typical babudom/redtape management. Why the hell a cash rich board like BCCI can't arrange transportation of players in 3 days...as if Australia is located on some other planet or what?? I say, give me all the money BCCI has at my disposal, I will subcontract everything to efficient private contractors/consultant to arrange all logistics within 2 days.;....while not compromosing with team-interests. IMO, Team-Interests is the FIRST and foremost, and BCCI babus has been more than pathetic so far in this. Link to comment

IMO, Team-Interests is the FIRST and foremost, and BCCI babus has been more than pathetic so far in this. Players can be transported in 3 days. But they also need to take care of their personal commitments, be flown to some central place, may be go through some clearance process. I do tend to agree that in general the BCCI is a dysfunctional organization and announces teams at the most inappropriate times. This isn't the first time. Link to comment
