What nonsense is he talking? It is he & his team that has panicked under pressure after acting overconfident & leaving for UK without prior preparations.Is he telling selectors not to touch his cronies post 4-0 whitewash in advance?
My team today's match 1. Viru 2. Gauti 3. Abhiav (Viru gots out early Dravid will go as 1 down else Abhinav) Left and Right hand combination 4. Dravid 5. Sachin 6. VVS 7. MS 8. RP singh 9. Munaf 10. Ishant 11. Sreeshant
To me spinners will play little role. Sachin or Viru should do part time bowling
Poor diet no meat.The main reason india didnot,doesnot and will not have genuine fast bowler because reluctance of including red meat in their diet.Pakistan had Sarfaraj ,Imran,wasim,waqar,Shoib Akhtar and many many more.Similarly West indies had their deadly fasties And same is the case witj England and Aus.By eating Daal Chawal,parantha,Idli Or Sambar u cannot produce World Class Fast Bowlers U can only produce Venkatesh Prasad or Mohanty atmost

dude red meat means beef ,pork,bacon ,lamb etc . EXCLUDING chicken(chicken is not meat)
BCCI has to be blamed for this defeat for cramping such a schedule without sufficient number of practice matches to enable the team to acclimatise themselves with the weather, pitch conditions, moving ball etc. I am sure with better planning, this team would have performed much better. Anyway, good luck MSD and team India.

The batting trio has reached superannuation & should be given retirement benefits without any further delay.The cost of carrying overage players for too long has been paid by Australia & is now the turn of India

True. Overaged players are playing for wrong reasons and demotivating junior players
At the end of the day, Cricket is like religion in India. And you're paid billions and your are making sure you make few more billions by endorsement and all.
In return all we're asking for some performance. Don't be so super intellectual and expect other indians to be so stupid to buy your crap..

who says therz no compettion almost all countries are trying to play cricket but they are failing in their attempts.. eg china, afghanistan, UAE, Canada, Ireland, even US any many more.. just like we are trying to play football worldcup & we dont have talent for the game ... other countries simply dont have talent for cricket.. its as simple as that.. to say therz no competition is very ignorant on your part.
