Indian cricketers, take charge of your lives

By John Cheeran
With World Cup only a few months away, the Durban Disaster has unsettled Indian cricket in a big way. Some critics are clamouring for the blood of coach Greg Chappell.
A coach can help the team only up to a point.
It is highly tragic if anyone thinks that Indian cricket's fatal flaws could be covered up just by getting Chappell to interact with our players.
In the end, in defeat, players have to own up responsibility.
Cricket is their bread and butter, it is their life.
If India terminates Chappell's contract, the Australian loses nothing. He had a fine print given by the Indian board and he will have his pound of flesh.
After all, Greg Chappell has earned his place in cricket history as an illustrious cricketer. Coaching is only the icing on his career cake. It is for the trundling Indian pros such as Mohammad Kaif, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Suresh Rainas to seize the moment and play for their dear lives.
It is important to have clarity of thought both for critics and cricketers.
Let's own up the mistakes and try to give the bestest possible shot while on the playing field.
