Ting Tind dear..... I hope u dont expect Anna Hazare & all patriots to hunt down Rakhee Sawant & mosquitoes :)
Test match is the real scene to know the credibility of a player & attitude of team (playing for a win/draw). It maybe a timepass for you, but a career for many people! If u dont want to watch test matches, dont do it.
Revenge should be a word to be removed from dictum today. You are No.5 team and play like underdogs, dont try toomuch to do too little. Stick to your basics very strongly and do not let lazyness creep in. Look to the opponent into their eyes and play, then only you can win. Remebering the past doesnt help, revenge thought itself shows you are really defeated earlier. It all happens in the game. Return the dish / curry in the same cup you have received.
Team India have already started taking revenge on BCCI and the selectors for the taxing schedule to which they have of late been and are being subjected.
Manifestation?
- Losing a couple of winnable ODIs to West Indies in West Indies.
- Winning the test series 1-0 instead of the 3-0 margin which was eminently possible and on the cards.
- Losing the test series 4-0 in England, whereas it was perfectly possible for them to make it a 1-1 draw or atleast 1-2 or 0-2 loss.
- CSK not qualifying for the semifinals of CLT20 and RCB losing to MI in the finals.
I believe that all the media hype about the "revenge series" notwithstanding, Indian team will go all out to lose the series.
This is the only way the players can teach BCCI and ICC the common sense of not killing the goose which lays golden eggs.
Should win the series with a good margin - if not anything , one to prove it was not a fluke ,two our cricketers need to be put in their place .With so much money in IPL , CL .these tournaments have taken over the real cricket .It is now clear Club is more important than Country .Who heads the clubs - white collared looters.

New Jersey my friend, cricket is not like wrestling to be fixed :) Definitely not Indian cricket after Azhar & Jadeja were sacked! The team toils hard for the victory or defeat.
Revenge is when you visit England and beat them at their backyard. Back here you prepare pitches where the ball just rises to the toe level. You pack the team with 10 batsmen and no one has a chance to pick wickets in such conditions. So the team that scores 400 runs will beat the other team by 10-15 runs...every one day will see 700 being runs scored with all the bowlers being bashed black and blue.

In england you see wickets prepared to their liking. So whats new ? England needs to be able to play and win in these conditions to be a top team and also No 1. Or is it that it applies only to india.
