I don't know why people start criticizing after a few innings. It was Sachin who had hit 130 runs in the final match against Sri Lanka. One can check his records in 2009 and it’s not that much bad if you compare it with Raina, Yusuf and even with Sehwag & Gambhir’s. In this series, even Sehwag could manage 94 runs in all 4 innings. The rave about his slow batting, Dhoni in the last match made 26 runs out of 46 balls. Dhoni, Yuvraj, Raina, Kohli all had the strike rate below 65. Why didn’t they do anything to win the match for India? In the previous match Ponting made 50 runs from 96 or something balls! But nobody from Australia said anything about his slow batting.
It’s always easy to criticize anybody but difficult to go in the middle and perform. Opponents know how crucial his wicket is. If Sachin is on the wicket, you can always hope India will win. If strike rate is that much important, then nobody in deserved a place in team just 5-6 years ago, because Sachin was making runs at a higher rate than others.

In the last 14 matches, Yuvraj has scored 377 runs, Raina 196 runs from 10 matches, Yusuf pathan 47 from 8 matches, Dhoni 538 from 14 matches, Gambhir 277 from 10 matches and Sachin 309 from 9 matches. There is not much difference if you can calculate avg. Dhoni has a little higher avg but no one else. His strike rate is still over 85 after 20 years, just 5 below dhoni’s 90. He’s still scoring at a healthy rate except this series. And you people starts criticizing on the basis of just 4-5 matches.
As things have shaped up from the first match onwards, it seems that this series is fixed by any of one either by BCCI and ACB in consent of ICC or by bookies....there are certain points which raise fingers, such as:
- In first ODI, India's almost winning comeback and thats too with two tailendrs putting some 80 run partnership with some continuous wayward bowling from aussies in few last overs and then again to lose the match when only 9 needed in the last over (agree that last over done by Siddle and he wasn't wayward, but still dosen't it make point that if India win that match then it shows a clear match fixing ).....so now the question is what could be the point behind this whole drama....so If series is either fixed by BCCI and ACB in consent of ICC or even by bookies then purpose could be if India loses match with a big margin (as harbhajan and praveen partnership reduced that large gap) then firstly people might loose the interest in rest of the series (BCCI and ACB wud never hav wanted this) and second ODIs are already on stake due to T-20 and series was of 7 matches (a 5 ODI matches series could be enough and here ICC would have put its thought).
- After four matches series is still in balance 2-2 (agree Aus have shown some good performance and even admitted by some of us), what was interesting to see that India did a great comeback after first ODI in next two ODIs and then suddenly throw the fourth ODI to Aus and thats too when they were smoothly (continued...)

(continued...)
moving to get the target....again what was interesting to note that Mohali track was throughout an ideal one (for batting and bowling) if it had been either a bouncy track or Aus had done some superb bowling [again agree that they bowled and fielded well but isn't it that more then their better bowling and fielding it was indian batsman's errors which made aussie win the match, the way yuvi ran out (ponting's superb fielding but who provided that chance to ponting, raina's silly chipping out and then get bowled. Interestingly target wasn't so big that these two things were required)].....again the point was same to keep series and people's interest alive that BCCI, ACB, ICC or bookies could not afford.
- Aussies first team selection and then the replacement of injured players - aussies got the problem of opener with tim paine's injury then who could be the best choice other then David Warners who has played in India too. Bowling was weak as first Bracken wasn't there and then Siddle got out due to injury but it seems Stuart Clark has got retired too from International cricket for ACB (agree on the point that they would have thought about trying some new players on Indian pitches keeping WC 2011 in mind).
Well, there could be anything but there is one thing atleast that things are not completely transparent.

I agree with the fact that, its still not transparent. The fact is that even if its not so, a cricket fan shall always have a question mark on the integrity of the players and BCCI
