So we agree finally that India won because of Kirsten and not because of the players, and least because of captaincy?
Well admitted!!

Agree! BCCI does not care Indian team lose or win.If that was the case, they have told Sehwag right after the wc, man go and fix your shoulder, told Zaheer to rest and Yuvraj Singh. But no, they need money! What can we do?, just sitt here and explain our views. We are so helpless! BCCI are too strong! even players dont dare to say a word against them.

It's a money game. they are just a bunch of politicians controlling this game. our former cricketers are pawns in bcci, they do the groundwork at cricket level, but have no role in administration or running of indian cricket, they just can give advice on cricket issues, but it is often discarded

Also, the way gavaskar, shastri and bhogle spoke so much in favour of bcci in between the sessions (with even bhogle cutting off boycott to not let him talk about ipl) , I can't help but to wonder if they are especially given instructions by our board to speak in their favor.

I have enormous respect for each of these guys incl. bhogle, but their aggressive pro-bcci stance was a bit strange honestly.

Michael Slater on Cricket show when he presented on Channel Nine in Australia demonstrated a Cricket Bowling machine that is advanced and simulates almost 90 percent of bowling action of every fast bowler in the world

Michael Slater told on the cricket show ,,that Aussies purchased the machine from USA ,,Which the americans made for BASEBALL training

Michael Slater said ,,Aussies modified that machine to suit Cricket bowling instead of Baseball bowling

They use that machine in Cricket Academy where aussie batsman can use to do practice

I hope Team India can find out about it and get one purcahsed

it should be used especially by young guns like Murali Vijays or Abhinav Mukunds to do lots of practice(both indoors and outdoors possible) to simulate high rise deleveries and bouncy pitches

Can Dhoni make some enquires ?
can some one on this forum bring this to the attention of BCCI authorities please

BCCI can afford to buy that machine I heard some kind of bowlers movements are captured by software and stored in the database which the machine will use as the basis to throw bowls at the practicing batsman

If we could purchase the machine our Tcs or INFy or Wipro or hcl CAN put some better software and make it robust for our team india

so find out from Aussies or Australian Cricket Board about the machine
I heard Michael Slater saying it is good and really helps the batsman get the practice in his own comfort

ipl is just 4 overs for bowlers, there is a bigger culprit.
No program to be number 1, no team A and team B-or Team C to counter over-scheduling by ICC.

No planning for program to be number one and how Team A will play once in two years for IPL whereas team B and team C are allowed IPL or champions league. while Team A has time to preprare to be number 1 test and 1 dayer plus T20 team. also, shuffling of player between Team B and team C and team A per their performance.

Angrez have program to be number 1.

whereas Indian has program to get videshi coach so the management can LOOT AT WILL and selectors and gang can push their players for records, endoresments and trophies.

and that program was extensive that indian wits wont see. it had player fitness, batting-bowling focus, Media, forcing DRS by many means, Umprites picking, pitch conditioning and recondition at night and certain special cricket balls. India has coach and team management who had no clue about players fitness ...

Angrez coach tells indian coach, you are doing a crucial work for Angrez, hang in there, just watch them ruin there team. IF THEY DO ANYTHING TO IMPROVE, inform us promptly so we can take counter-measures.

Solutions are :
========

1.Expand and get some ex players inside BCCI decision making process

2.Let Vengsarkar or Kapil or Madan Lal get the chance

3.Also please read the message about using the Bowling machine that Austrlians have (read above) or make Ebnquiries with ACB or their Cricket Academy
(Michael Slater)

5.Let us create a battery pf fast bowlers like 2 zaheers and 2 Ishants always on stand by

England deserve No1.
Before the series that Bengali Saurav was saying India will completely dominate this series.What a joker he is now.
But to be fair he improved in commentary as series progressed but the two BCCI spokespersons Shastri and Gavaskar along with the 2 idiots Harsha and wilkins kept getting depressingly worse and one sided.
finally yesterday Ravi and sunny was accepting that jimmy's spell was fantastic.
Just compare Wilikns description of final wicket of the game to David lloyd on sky : wilkins was pathetically saying how bad India were and not how good england have done and thay are No1

he said infact India should be better prepared for England tour as England has strong bowling line up

he also cautioned Indian batsman to get more practice as there is some good fast bowling in store for them

He made the comments before the series. It came on the basis of our earlier performances in England - and also with the assumption that our batting lineup would stand up to their bowling, and put the pressure back on England. That has been our strength for our Test for almost a decade or so. At the beginning of the series - nobody would have expected that our batting would not cross 300 in six Test innings. What was wrong in that statement before the series. He didnt say 'India would whip the England team' or 'India would win 4-0. He just said Indians would dominate - there wasnt any bad in that statement. What about the comments from Botham, etc. - I dont think even the biggest English supporters would have imagined such an easy victory and a 3-0 scoreline after three matches. And why are you bringing this 'that Bengali' in your comments.

Why Dhoni is scared to say, they play too much of cricket. BCCI should open the eyes and see it. BCCI is the culprit not the player. They are human beings, play cricket almost 365 days and keep on winning, not possible. On the top of this... players have to play IPL. Shame on you BCCI

Right, but BCCI is shameless. Just the other day I heard Rajiv Shukla saying in an interview that certainly bcci would go ahead with whatever commitments they have given in international calendar.

Just see their 2011 calendar, team india is so packed up. Now there's unnecessary championsleaguet20 also coming up right after england tour.
