If you are trying to find the interview that Indian cricket coach Greg Chappell gave to Guardian Magazine about Sourav Ganguly some days back, then you have come to the right place...

Greg may have been a great cricket player himself, and even when his performance as the Indian coach is producing pleasing results now, he should be careful of what he says in the media. On first of March, 2006 - the day when India vs England series kicked off, he said yes to an interview with Guardian Magazine and went on to express his feeling like a true Australian - Frank and bold. This is what Chappell said - " I'm not the hard-nosed control freak that I have been portrayed. I'm thorough, a realist, a pragmatist and I'm honest. Much has been written and said, a lot of it misleading, but in essence I told Sourav that if he wanted to save his career he should consider giving up the captaincy. He was just hanging in there. Modest innings were draining him. He had no energy to give to the team, which was helping neither him nor us. It was in his own interest to give himself mind space to work on his batting so that it could be resurrected. He was not prepared to do that. What I didn't realise at that stage was how utterly important to his lifeChappell&Ganguly2.png and finances being captain was"

Right now its 0307 hrs here in India and I feel glad to present you the complete interview by Mike Selvey for Guardian Magazine with Greg Chappell about Sourav Ganguly. To me, this interview proves that our Indian cricket's future is in honest hands..Whatever Chappell is saying, one thing is for sure that he is thinking about the future and producing results. And along with Dravid and Kiran More as the chief selector, we can hope for some international glory very soon.. what's your opinion??
