After a week of gruesome post mortem carried out by the media and all the “Indian cricket fans”( who consider themselves to be no less than the committee members of BCCI) about this Ganguly- Chappell issue, the big day had arrived. The day on which a few former captains got together with BCCI officials to have a little chat with Mr., Captain and Mr. Coach.

People were eagerly awaiting for this day as they expected some fireworks to happen resulting in moral victory of one of the parties leading to stepping down of the other. But, as usual, we had to settle for a few highly diplomatic explanations about why these things happened. It was said that the whole issue was result of “miscommunication” . I would rather say, BCCI officials made sure that through their “Judicious Remarks”, the real ‘communications’ would be completely ‘missed’ by the public. Mr. Mahendra, “Yeh Public hai, Yeh sab janti hai ”…

It’s a well proven fact that Saurav is a lazy bone. And I can bet that he would be faking injuries just to avoid practice sessions as per Chappell wrote in his mail. But Mr. Mahendra says that none of this has ever happened. This means, Mr, Chappell is lying. If so, he deserves to be sacked for making such allegations to the most successful Indian captain till now who also has 15k runs on his back. But what do they do, they say that Mr. Chappell & Mr. Ganguly will work together.

People don’t have to be brain surgeons to read between the lines. It can mean only one thing. The allegations were correct and officials are trying desperately to cover it up. In an attempt to make sure that real truth won’t be told, they have issue a fatwa, “players will face disciplinary action if they directly go to the media”.

Moral of the story, “Chota baccha jaan ke humko na behekana re!” We have been exposed to enough of similar bullshit so as to spot this Gangoogly and dismiss it for a six!
