The essential difference between our team and the Aussies have been highlighted today, the instinct to finish of the opposition, the killer instinct is just not there, the Aussies would never let this happen, thats what make them world beaters

Bob Raj....if you want to find Inividual talents .. then u will Lose the "Team". Dhoni & Co are a real Solid Team....u need a Solid Team..not solid individuals...like Rohit Sharma......When Shewag hits Century Yuvi samiles from his heart ..the same same is with others in this team..think about the old teams...Also when we lost to Australia in ODI 4-1 ( after T20 crown ) dhoni made some changes in team ..which turned fruitful for the team...

He man this is 2009 and u r talking abt 2001 WC. Is ur calender moving back....?
I THINK INDIA LOST TODAY ONLY BECAUSE OF ONE MAN AND THAT IS ROHIT SHARMA.AS SOON HE CAME TO THE CREASE HE WENT TO DRAVID LIKE SHELL WHICH LEAD TO YUVRAJ AND SEHWAG THROWING THEIR WICKETS AND HE LATER RAN OUT BHAJJI AND ZAHEER KHAN ONLY TO CEMENT HIS PLACE IN THE SIDE.THE MOST SELFISH INDIAN CRICKETER SINCE NAYAN MONGIA.

Yuvraj and Sehwag should be professional enough to not throw their wickets. When Yuvraj tries to manage the game, he always fails. Yuvraj can play fast paced scoring game easily. if someone can get as to his average in chasing score compared to batting first, we may find some truth.

You are absolutely right...Rohit's 43 at a SR of 57 should not be praised. He was too slow for ODI's. Selfish cricket should not be tolerated. Uthappa is a better choice.

What Cement and concrete u r talking about . The rest team couldnt even last 43 overs Why..?? just to pick one and blame is sign of immaturity. Becoz this is team game. And if u think Yuvi and Veru threw their wkts becoz of Rohit wht abt Gambhir and Suresh raina..??

wow blame it on Sharma cos rest of the batsmen failed. Sharma sucks and has not justified his talent, no doubt about that . But he is not to be blamed for other batsmens failure
this is why we need somebody like sachin.. who can play sensibly yet destructively.. i really dont know why ppl dont understand his approach... useless ppl as usual..
today more bowlers like munaf,zaheer,irfan should playing on afraiding pitches useful for bowlers and not extra batsmen like rohit sehwag cant bat on afraiding pitch and good on only happy pitch for batsman ball not having movement but jaffer playing good on this type pitch opening job tough always kaif is pressure batsman and not careless like Raina yousuf should come at 3 position he is not pressure batsman yousuf not given chance to bowl today but ishanth useless bowler bowling lot of overs today also praveen in other matches
best india team for winning on afraiding pitches:
jaffer sachin yousuf yuvraj kaif doni irfan harbajan zaheer munaf rp sing

U missed Azhar yar.... u can make one minority team.... have u ever consulted any psychiatrist... no no.. do not do it.. psychiatrist will go mad...
any definitive explaination for the performance??..201/0 in last innings under floodlit conditions and moisture and 149/10 under sunlight bouncy pitch??...This is bcmng a trend...don't win all matches...just win series and then lose the next game
Earlier captains used to fail in final match (take several examples of Ganguly, Dravid & Azhar). But for Dhoni he win the series first and ensures there is nothing called final or finale and it doesn't matter if he lose last match of series....kudos Dhoni and your all team members...excellent stuff from you guys
