All over again?
by India on Dec 07, 2007 12:10 PM

Here we go all over again. Now Tendulkar and his senior friends will try to get rid of Kirsten and Upton. The same thing happened when Chappell brought in his support staff.

Not a good move...
by Jay on Dec 07, 2007 05:11 AM

This is what 'politically correct' foreign coaches bring to the table in Indian cricket. I was hoping all the players are mentally conditioned before I read the above mishap from Rediff. Why would professional cricketers need a mental conditioning coach ?

I am not sure if that move would improve their mental conditions although I am definitely optimistic of them getting brain washed rather leading up to a string of poor performances in Australia. You see pro sportsmen don't need such things unless they are on steroids or other drugs that have physically and mentally tarnished their careers. Its a path which is almost similar to counseling by psychiatrists.

If Kirsten could do one sensible thing then it would be to hire a baseball coach from the USA and bring him to India so that our reckless and stocky fielders can do something about a problem that has plagued Indian cricket since time eternal. Now some white cricket nations have even gone the distance so as to say 'Asians cannot slide'. Its a robust indignity that must be felt by all the Asian teams.

We don't need a mental conditioner or hair conditioner. Just a sensible accomplice in Kirsten who would do many people happy by just keeping his sick-a$$ plans at bay.

simple
1. They cant pick a side without fear or favor.
2. They dont want to win in aus.
3. They will lose the series and The stars would score runs(without aiming to win) and be in the team forever and will blame the lack of quality fastbowlers in india.
