Probably you are not aware of Team India's inconsistent behavior.
In the last 2 years they have been first round crashers in WC 2007, T20 WC 2009 and ICC CT 2009 recently. Also, they were comprehensively beaten 4-2 in recent series against a second team of Australia.

BCCI is greedy, that is the only word for it. Since ODIs and T20s bring in more Revenue to the ever open coffers of BCCI, they don't care about anything else.
Just two tests in six months ! Didn't they know that India would become No.1 in Test rankings? How do they maintain this status if they don't play ?
What a shame, we may lose the ranking not because of our lack of talent, but because BCCI is too focussed on money.

they cant predict ind can become no 1. in fact, no 1 position is like musical chair. it depends not only on our good performance but also on others' bad perforamcne.

Perfectly. Australia losing ashes to England contributed to their descent.
Since India is going to play few test matches next year, this No. 1 position will be shortlived and meaningless. No reason to celebrate when this form of cricket is on death bed.
sree defenitely been underbowled, and people aint blind, they can see wht happening on field, India won the match n series and became no 1 fine, and nice, but whatever one do at field, is always under observation, and so the injustice happened to sree, this need to be stopped henceforth, all know who is the best pacer in India today, and sree doesnt need thondies certificate for that....wait and watch wht happens in the coming matches.
