history states, fast owlers never been the greatest of fielders, exceptions might be there, but when genaralise, the answer is clear, fast bowlers are good throwers, but never good fielders, a genuine fielder, always attack the ball but the running around the ball is the way of a fast bowler, and there is problem for bending their back, they take more time to reach, and grab the ball, even though their release n throw is better than other fielders. Even a minor injury can push the future of a fast bowler into deep troubles, they are like the race horses, to run, the horses need to be fit 100% same is the case with fast bowlers, injury means out of trade, so please dont blame Zaheer onesided, he never been a great fieldeer, but that is how it is, a team have to compensate, but he is a good bowler, and there is years atleast a couple, still left in him, so dont please write him off, let him come back strongly. The absence of Sreesanth, is defenitely affecting the bowling departmnet, may be many would rate him as over acting one, but still he is the only Genuine Fast Swinger of India, who can beat the opposite batsman with his Swing of Air and Move of the Pitch. What I hope is, Get Mr Singh back team, as the Fielding Coach and Pray Sreesanth Join the Team atleast from the next match onwards. All the best ma Team India.
- 20 more runs needed for fielding lapses; - 3 more batsmen needed to arrest the regular slide witnessed in batting; - 5 more catches to be dropped by the fielding side to enable our batsman to a huge total; - 2 more bowlers needed to have variety in bowling; - Boundary lines to be brought inward further so that we can freely attempt fours and sixers; - What more do I need, I think .. .. ..
I have heard of this during my elemetary school days: "Ill-equipped dancer complaining the condition of the floor for poor performance"
Sportsman spirit lies in accepting defeat magnanimously and giving credit to the winning side. Introspect within the four walls of the room where you discuss strategies and plans for action. We care to see your performance on the field only, as managers care for performance at work. Strategise within.
Dhoni : You have been the luckiest in all ways; You took charge when nobody even in their wildest dreams expected India to do well - a big advantage for a captain;(Yes, I refer to the 2007 World T2o event); When you took charge, most other teams had second rung players in the process of developing their respective national teams; When you took charge, the spirit of winning had ingrained well in our team members for which the seeds were sown by illustrious predecessors in many ways; You have been blessed with placid home pitches so you can score easily to your heart's content.
Stop giving excuses - of late we hear more of excuses from your stable.

Get the fielding right and things will follow. Get bowling right in first 2 powerplays as this is hurting India since some time. Oppositions are easily taking indian bowlers to 10 an over in first 10-15 overs
