Ganguly to be the new Director of the Indian Team?


Recommended Posts

Posted

@Harsh Goenka Saurav Dada told me today that he is coming as Director of the Indian cricketing team. Shrewd and intelligent cricketing mind. Great news! Goenka is the head of RPG Enterprises. Seeing that Ganguly's name has been coming up for coach so I think he is accurate on this one.... Would be a good choice. I'm not convinced with his name for Coach but I think he can do a good job as Team Director.

Not buying it. Who's going to want to be coach if a team director is in place? This is not like the Fletcher-Shastri thing. There, Fletcher was failing,had a contract until the WC, and Shastri was brought in to correct things.

This won't end well .Will only end up undermining Kohli and new coach Ganguly has too big an ego
Dude why so much hate for Ganguly? He was a fantastic skipper in his playing days. Why not give him a chance and see how he does as a coach rather than passing judgement?

Pointing out reality is not hate lol And if u think he doesn't have too big an ego just check what happened during his county stint Not to forget the ugly spat with Chappel being played out via media . He will become a good administrator if he winds up as IPL or BCCi chairman but will be disaster as coach particularly with Kohli as captain Too many big egos for a dressing room

Kohli's ego is overstated. He did absolutely fine with Shastri at the helm who is another strong personality. The thing with Kohli is he is aggressive on field and get under the skin of opponents. But you will rarely see him taking tussle against senior Indian cricketers. So I think he should be fine under Ganguly. However, I do not think Ganguly and Dhoni can work together due to their history. Then again, I can be wrong. Chappel incident was known to everyone and we should very well knw who was at fault then. Every Indian cricketer including Tendulkar was unhappy with Chappel as the coach. So it was really not Ganguly's fault. An Indian coach showing middle finger to Indian public should tell you the whole story.

So how many cricketers washed their dirt in public during Chappell era apart from Ganguly? And tell me what Chappell did wrong regarding Ganguly? Ganguly was in woeful form for nearly 2 years and clinging to his place in the team via Captaincy .What exactly was wrong in removing him? But his ego couldn't take it went to media and washed it in public . And if u think Kohli ego is overrated then u are really naive .

You Kolkatans are a little too defensive about anything Bengali. It's almost like you share that typically inherent Bangladeshi victim mentality.
Indians have no victim mentality, right? They still whine about the Sydney Test! :haha:

They still whine about the Sydney Test! :haha:[/quote'] Bangladesh whinged over one no-ball in a match where they were being royally spanked all corners. What makes it even funnier is that one of your openers edged one to the keeper and stood his ground shamelessly ( So much for accusing India of cheating). Indians whine over a match that was decided based on a series of 8-9 bad calls, and that led to India sliding from a winning position to draw... and then from a draw to last over loss. Shouldn't be hard to spot the difference.
