Disappointed MPs gun for Chappell New Delhi, November 23: Greg Chappell Members of Parliament expressed disappointment over India's humiliating loss to South Africa in the second cricket ODI in Durban, with some of them demanding coach Greg Chappell's removal and an explanation from BCCI Chief Sharad Pawar. Senior BJP leader and Rajya Sabha MP Vijay Kumar Malhotra said Pawar must take some hard decisions to ensure India's sequence of defeats was broken. "People feel hurt after they watch the performance of the Indian cricket team. Since Pawar is BCCI chief, he should tell what are the steps he is taking to save the team from continuous defeats," he said. "What he thinks about the coach has to be decided by him," he added. Holding Chappell responsible for the defeats, RPI MP Ramdas Athawale demanded removal of the coach and non-performing players. "This is a disappointing performance as India could score only 91 runs. This means Greg Chappell is not fulfilling his responsibilities. This defeat has brought disrepute to India. We also have demanded that at the district level scheduled caste and scheduled tribe players should be given reservation and the players performing better should be nominated for selection in Indian team," he said. http://www.expressindia.com/cricket/fulleistory.php?content_id=77423?headline=Disappointed~MPs~gun~for~Chappell
