10 Dark secrets of Indian cricket you all should know
Some of these incidents coincide with the darkest phases of Indian cricket and that's why it is necessary for people to know about these secrets.
2) Differences of opinion
Anybody who is following Indian cricket will be well aware of the Ganguly-Chappell saga. It’s a time when the country’s cricket was at its lowest point as the team hogged the limelight for their off-field antics rather than their on-field actions. Mainly the tussle of war between Sourav Ganguly and Greg Chappell formed the plot of the storyline.
Another interesting character of that storyline is Rahul Dravid as he took over the leadership duties in those tough times. Though the issues got resolved after India’s shock exit in 2007 World Cup there are still some dark clouds hovering the incident. It is clear from the contradicting statements made by the two former Indian skippers.
As per Dada in one-off his dressing-room conversations with Dravid, the right-hander expressed his disappointment of failing to control the decisions taken by Greg Chappell. In a turn of events, Dravid denied such discussions and stated that it is just an opinion of his Bengal counterpart. He went onto add that Sourav should not make such remarks without thinking of its consequences. So it can be said that both the cricketers are still not on the same page of the Chappell story.
