This astonishing series for England and India. India never played this badly in a decade and English are playing stunningly superb. India is not even playing like a test playing nation, they are like Canada and Netherlands in test cricket. How can one team make almost 700 odd runs in every test and other team can not even make 250. The English can make 400 a day. This is the greatest dominance of all time.
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   Â

Venky, Mohanty, RP Singh, Sreesanth, Kuruvilla, Balaji all bowl consistantly @ 120mph ...school boy stuff. U could hear Sunny and Harsha jumpin in joy in the commentary box coz they call them pacers..LOL
By now we all have realized that current Indian team is the worst country has put out for years. Their batting, bowling, fielding, and tactical game plans are below par.
Team Management: Absent and non-existing team management did nothing to take charge of the situation. Grandson of Ch. Bansilal, Haryanvi manager should be fired as he has no clue about anything. Appoint a former test player for the role.
Coach: Now we know that it was Gary Kirsten who masterminded India's success in past years. Without him Indian team lacks tactical game plan and looks clueless. Duncan Fletcher is not Gary Kirsten. Bring back V Prasad and Robin Singh as bowling/fielding coaches.
Skipper: Dhoni has failed as the leader of the team. he has lost his way and appear clueless. His ad mocking his senior player and his dead father was cheap and divisive. Him bowling at a critical point of a test showed his lack of commitment. His own wicketkeeping, field placement, and bowling changes are very poor.
Pace Bowlers: Without Zaheer Khan, Indian fast bowlers look 2nd rate and never threatening. Why was Munaf ignored? Srishanth is a retard and RP Singh should have never been there.
Spinners: Without Harbhajan, Indian spinners look like Ranji players. Mishra, Ojha, Powar, and Chawla are just not making it at the international level.
Selectors: Team selection defies logic. Players like Mukund, RP, Srisanth dont deserve to be in the team. Kohli, Munaf, and Saha should be playing.

Yes , you are right . Pathetic bowling performance by the Indians . It is better to call back Venkatesh Prasad as Coach .
