the best thing that can happen to india is to stop cricket completely. It will not only save the crores of rupess that is going into these idiotic players' coffins but also will pave way for progress as we all but minus 11 of the population of india could do some thing worthwhile and contribute to the progress of India rather than wasting five days or even a six hour 20s game. Impose a complete ban on cricket, focus on growth

cricket is a useless game pLAYED BY 4 5 COUNTRIES IN THE ENTIRE WORLD. IT NEEDS TO BE STOPPED GIVEN UNDUE RECOGNITION. ITN ONLY GIVES MONEY TO USELSS PPL LIKE dHONI,YUVRAJ ETC. PPL NEEDS TO CONCENTRATE ON FOOTBALL AND ATHLECTICS OR EVEN HOCKEY WHICH ARE TRULY GOBAL SPORTS
I truly believe in this team n sure tht they wll come back strongly to defeat Srilanka....its about getting used to condition....n it happens in every tour tht we hav to face problem in 1st test but we come back strongly in nxt test....
Sachin is in the team only to break Lara's record. He does not have any other intention to be in the team. Forget playing to win. These two are nothing but a chewing gum in hair. They will not retire on their own. Sponsors are already neglecting Sachin. Slowly BCCI will do the same, and one find they they will ask him to just leave the team. Dada is no exception.
We need reservation in Indian cricket team, that is the only solution to this crisis
Our esteemed government should immediately mandate a minimum of 60% reservation in the national team, with at least three seats for "minorities" and one for women. That is the only way forward.
And, by the way, yes there was the small matter of Islamic terror in Bengaluru and Ahmedabad. Also our govt is busy congratulating itself on its horse trading skills. These things don't merit our attention.
Sachin Tendulkar clean bowled (no shot offered)..The best batsman in the best world out in the worst ways possible...his sponsors are running away from him, he has already been boooed in Mumbai..it's time to ask him to return to Sahitya Sahwas..his old home in Bandra..
