Gambit Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Was it because he is Ganguly's chela and voiced support for him in the dressing room and this did not go down well with Chappell and Dravid? I can't think of any other reason. If they removed him from VC in tests, why is he our stand in ODI captain? If they removed him from VC in tests on the basis of non performance in ODIs, what's the logic in that? He's been awesome in tests. Link to comment
kabira Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? logic and indian selectors cant be in same room Link to comment
yoda Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? He obviously has pissed off some. One or more of RD, Chapell and the selectors. There was a theory posted by someone that there is fear that Sehwag being cappo when RD is out and Gangs is in would mean Gangs becomes the defacto cappo. :tired: Link to comment
Sooda Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? ^ Yeah that was aired on cricinfo also The usual i.e: Greg and Viru dont like each other much. Virus not been up to it attitude wise Good kick up the backside for him this is More imp: surely VVSL is far mroe tactically astute anyway Link to comment
Inside_edge Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? well, there is huge backlash in home for his prolonged poor form and can only be dropped if stripped off the tag.Looks like selectors are yielding to public demand. Link to comment
yoda Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? + gives VVS more confidence - dents Sehwag's confidence Sehwag has a longer shelf life than VVS. Bad move overall, unless there are some genuine issues with Sehwag's work ethic and contribution to the team as a VC. Link to comment
Bumper Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? I'd have smelt something fishy if Vengy hadnt remarked something like: When asked about Veeru, "No body can take their place for granted". IMO, this is a stoopid move from Vengy who used Sehwag's ODI performances against him. Link to comment

We haven't been able to replace VVS and Ganguly yet. Link to comment
gator Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Re: Why was Sehwag removed from VC? Veeru has not offered the same support tht Dravid offered Ganguly as a vice-captain.... as simple as tht.... Veeru was stripped of VC much before this.... many of u have forgotten tht Yuvi was the VC till he got injured.... Veeru was jus a stop-gap arrangement.... Link to comment
