Views about India and Australia

Australia, despite of being the best side in the world today, is still not unbeatable, the only thing is that they believe in themselves, play to their fullest ability, keeping fully in mind that they are playing for their nation. Each and everyone in the Australian team knows the value of his place in the team. This unit definitely plays as a team, everybody WANTS to contribute towards the team, and they very well are used to playing fast bowling. Of course, besides Australia, no other team, except Pakistan, has fast bowlers with it. But India's problem is different. As soon as India's bowling is being thrashed, Indians always tend to lose heart, and does not play as a team, it does not show in their body language at all. They all seem like lost, when the going gets tough. Indians need to be mentally strong, believe in themselves, and not get intimidated by the opposition at all. Of course, this has been our age-old problem of not being used to fast pitches, thanks to a bunch of jokers, called selectors, and the politics that runs in the veins of Indian cricket. Remember,post world cup 1983 thrashing by West Indies? We could have made fast pitches after losing to them(incomplete)
