Hats off to the Australian team for the all round performance. India and SA should learn from them. Bench strength has to be really good quality.
India's test team would be in deep crisis when Dravid, Tendulkar, and Laxman retire soon. India lacks genuine and consistent fast bowlers like Australia. there is nothing wrong in aspiring big but the "ONE OF THE RICHEST" management should bring in measure for quality and bench strength else India will be only an empty vessel

they didn't have to face more spirited teams like Sri Lanka, Pakistan, India in crucial matches involving tough nerves and presssure.

i said crunch , knockout maatches. Any ways the match with India wasn't won by them and that with Pakistan was just a scrape through. For beating England and NZ in key matches they don't deserve much credit. It is the other mentioned teams which are more competitive aand spirited.
Great composition.The way they held the batting after ponting was out is really great sense of winning attitude.Hats off.Good captain and good team.Watson is great allrounder.

Boss, let the other sportsmen do well in their sport before u expect the fans and the media to follow them. No body follows a loser, friend. Have we won anything concrete in hockey, football? U do well in something and then u would find people chasing u...that is rule of the game!

Do you know what is cricket baby? This is the same team which won in Perth (only asian team which won there). Recently India acheived number one status in ICC rankings.Previous compac cup was won by defeating srilanka in srilanka. But one thing is for sure that bench strength should be strong to ensure that injuries do not hamper Indias progress further. Simply blaming the team for one bad treatment is not enough .Just support the team in this bad phase. It will emerge above just like anything.

Milind ..have yuo ever watched a test match in perth before this? The perth track on which india won is not the lightning track on which Sachin scored his best hundred in 92.The have mellowed it down similar to the normal tracks elsewhere ..thanks to the excessive commercialisation.
