Dear friends, We should start a campaign to limit IPL to once in 3 years and not every year.The players are not putting their best in the 5 day format.Look at Sehwag. He got injured playing for IPL. IPL is not cricket,but it is just MONEY and Glamour.
we must have got atleast 150 run lead but last 5 wicket fell for 20 runs. howcome broad is allowed to take score from 128-8 to 221. and then we slump from 250-4 to 288 all out. pathetic. can happen once but not in all innings. we cross 300 only once including the tests in WI and England till now. on top of that we cannot make 180 from 47 over after allowing batter like edward to bat for 37 overs. Is this no.1 team
Without Gary Kirsten. Poor field placings by Dhoni cost India too may boundaries and Englands' run rate almost 4 an over. This is very poor tactics by India's captain, especially when bowlers are not getting help from the wicket.

Ian Bell is wicket keeper unlike dhoni is learning from dravid batting skills and applying mind to build 100 to 200 runs & partnerships to put england in commanding position
