Indian cricket team-tour to australia

Well,the curtain fall eventually!The better team has won.Autralia was and is the best team and they have proved it again.
And Indian team?Performance curve weavery.But most concern that curve dint went up when needed.Frankly speaking,indian team fared better than australian but lacked consistency or rather stamina
During last match,the team looked more tired than dejected.The body language spoke all.
VB series with ,say,6 matches would have been indian's game.
The kind of eterny we have we need two national team.I have played cricket in domestic circuits and I know its real difficult to perform well day and day on.Cricket is not like a normal job.It takes our your sweat and blood everytime you step in the field.Mental exaustion follows every time you leave the field.Going through 55 odd one day matches,10 tests and travelling really takes toll.And at the end,you cant expect them to win.
A rollsroce also dosent run without fuel!
So have mercy on cricket players

Yes, I do accept the better team won.But defeating the best team would have really been morale booster.
I do accept the body language spoke of tiredness, not this the real problem was the failure of the top Indian players and the saga of injuries has led to this defeat.
With specialist bowling coach and one of the better team coah and physiotherapist on our side this negative body language had to be dealt before this downfall.
the Aussies were under the same schedule though they had the advantage of being the home team, Indians never fell short of support.
Looking on to the optimistic side the youngster had much to learn and the tour even helped the senoir players to know their pitfalls.
Dealing with all this tiredness is what todays challenging world demands.
Though players like Brett Lee lost form but they always hit back and this what the Indian senoirs had to learn.True gold always comes after taking the goldsmith's hammering.
This tour should help Indians to get stronger physically, mentally.
As the only team who could challenge the world champions Indians could have done better than this.
Consistency and strength are the need of the time.
