Will Srikkanth take responsibiltiy of the blunders he made and resign:
- Selecting unfit players (Zaheer, Sehwag..etc)
- Rushing back Sehwag (thinking he is superman)
- Continuing with Harbhajan (even though he is a failure for the past 2 years)
- Selecting a player as replacement (RP) when he hasn't played for 4 months

Considering the form of a player should be standard across the board (for senior & juniors) - say example, if someone is a failure for the last 3 tests or last 5 one-days he has to be dropped. Dont count on reputation.

Indian Captaincy!!!!!
by MadhuSudanGopal Rao on Aug 22, 2011 10:04 AM

Can somebody explain how logical was for the captain to send Dravid to bat inspite of the fact that he had faced 300 balls in the first innings. Why did not Tendulkar & Lakshman not volunteer knowing the fact that Dravid is tired. For a minute keep aside the technical aspect of opening batsmen and look at this with a human face !!!!

Weird

WEIRD. Thats what we should call India's performance. They dont even look competitive like a kids cricket team. They may be tired after World Cup and IPL but this is not that.......ITS SIMPLY WEIRD.

Anyway its going to be a sure repetition when England visits India later, only the role will be reversed........if they hit us with bouncers we twist them with turners.....Thats going to happen for sure.....

Without bowlers calling ourselves no1 is a same.if your batting is strong,bowling is weak,why you have not employed 5 bowlers?
It was a fixed series,but England routes us instead of token win.see the crowd on 4 th day of 4 th losing test match. Every visiting team is made to lose by bookies.pak was openly doing it

Wrong Decision

When batsmen get benefit of doubt when checking with the third umpire how did Steve Davis gave Rahul Dravid out when the third umpire knows Rahul Dravid's wicket was crucial from India's point of view in saving the test.

that's like a true indian attitude, we must play a blame game and throw the responsibility on britishers for our humiliating defeat....now champs look like chimps....
