We are a cricket carzy nation , too much money in this sport. Aus tour was well scripted so that indians will be glued to the tv sets and bookies will make a kill. Imagine if aus would get their best side and win , no Indian cricket lover would watch. good ploy of ICC and BCCI. Pak are right when they say that all are involved, otherwise 7 nation playing the game would not drive so much craze.
It is foolish to keep matches in south India when the south west monsoon is active there. Look at the place selection first kochi, vishakapatnam and Goa. Why not cities in north India, where the monsoon has already withdrawn. BCCI lacks wisdon both on and off field. God save them.

tours are being arranged by the board considering maximum entertaintment to the foreign teams. Cricketers are away from home and they need more fun than the cricket lovers..! that is the reason they often loose matches in foreign conditions. It is applicable to all teams touring any country. Cricket board ensure that the players gets maximum outing and night life, nature beauty etc. etc....
Are these ground moderators living in 21st Century or 18th Century. First it was Cochin and now Goa and I do not know when these guys gonna make a proper draining system in the grounds. At both venues, it was bright sunny day yet the match could not be played due to wet conditions. Cmon guys, first instal proper drainage system in grounds. You can also pocket money by doing this; Just for that sake; do it.

There is no need to spend huge on such,instead BCCI must know the climatology of Indian subcontinent.No match must be allowed in cties in western coast till October and no match will be allowed in cities of easten coast from Novmeber to December 15th

Australia are No.1 by a considerable margin in Odi Cricket check your facts before posting
Wat a shame a nation which is called Mecca Of Cricket....A TEam travels thousands of miles only to be frustrated by Nature....cant find the logic of staging matches in sub standard centers....This only sends shoddy pictures of the country which boasts of the richest Board in the world. Indeed mypoic outlook of the authorities has once again brought disgrace to the country...so what if India won 1-0....it wasn't fair to the visitors as well as cricket lovers....

who cares about the cricket lovers? You know Mr. Shyamal, tours are being arranged by the board considering maximum entertaintment to the foreign teams. Cricketers are away from home and they need more fun than the cricket lovers..! that is the reason they often loose matches in foreign conditions. It is applicable to all teams touring any country.
