India Won the 20-20 WC appreciated.. but again we are doing the same mistake by giving them too much value as we are doing from last 25 years. Media is responsible for all hype they are creating for these cricketers. And eventually we will find that these players also playing in pressure as we are increasing our expectations. And why are govt. giving money, I don't think cricketers are poor. Better give money to freedom fighters whom we have seen struggle for even 2 times food. BCCI is there to give them prices why should State govts. BCCI is earning thats why no problem even they distribute 50 crores. Why should govts... 5 lacs is more than the annual income of normal middle class person..
When whole of india is celebrating the T-20 triumph of india... the 50 unfortunate sons of indian cricket must be feeling isolated... i think they can't even enjoy this... because they are not and cannot be part of this.They must rueing their luck to join ICL , specially after BCCI declaring there own brand of 20-20 format.
RP Singh gave the brave performance. But RP Singh converted himself from ordinary to a lethal bowler. It has been an impressive performance from RP Singh since the tour of eng. More important thing and a lesson to others is that prior to his comeback to intl ckt, he was slow like irfan. But after he was dropped from the team, probably his stint with MRF academy, gave him the results. He not only improved his fitness and also increased his bowling speed. It is good to see a youngster like RP making efforts like this. From him, other bowlers have to learn a lot. eg. Irfan has been a slow bowler since his initial career, he shud work out just like RP to improve his speed so as to become more potent bowler. Another lesson for Munaf - who was originally a speedster, but got his speed relinquished somewhere. He shud also get his speed back and learn the lesson to remain fittest.

Compare this with Munaf. He was supposed to be India's answer to Bret Lee and Shane Bond and look where he is now. Part of this was media hype and even before he had made his debut there were articles mentioning that he bowls consistently in 140s and his aim was to bowl 150kph. Total BS. Probably he may have bowled a couple of deliveries around 140-142kph. But his speed has now come down to 125-128kph mainly because he is totally unfit. I dont think he should be selected again unless he bowls at 138-140kph.

I think you should also retire from putting your useless comments here. You are asking the players to retire at 30? Why do you think a 30 year old person cannot perform as well as a 22 year old? Sachin even at 34 fields better than Sreesanth, RP Singh,Powar, Zaheer and Sehwag. You are nuts to even mention this

may be the new faces were 1 or 2 like yusuf n rohit. but the difference was a new face called dhoni the captain.
if i was a cricketer, i would've quit withing an year of getting in. reason, the crazy indian fans with no life at all. they jump on you when you don't perform, and they jump on you when you perform. manners and social etiquettes seem to be distant relatives. shame shame shame
