RAINS P0UR F0R TW0 DAYS ! C0z BCCI CANT BUY NATURE ! Like THEY BUY PLYR, UMPIRE ETC. BTW WH0 CARES WHEN WE WIN AT HOME ! TIS NZ TEAM HAS BEEN WHITEWASHED EVEN BY BANGLADESH !
We seem to have forgotten the 4-0 drubbing that we recd in england & australia only recently. Mohinder Amarnath was & is still right in saying that our selectors are a bunch of jokers. Why do we have ODI / T20 players like Raina in the team ?? Rohit sharma who was taken to Oz did not play even 1 test there & is now dropped from the squad courtesy MSD. I really agree with some of the rediff viewers if MSD merits a place in the Test team?? ODI / T20 is OK no doubts about that.
meaningless series against weak opposition on favourable wickets.They should have given an oppurtunity to pujara and other youngsters in England and Australia because next time we will send a team unfamiliar to the conditions and fail miserably again.Atleast board should learn from past mistakes and make fast,bouncy wickets for domestic cricket at least.

You can call it vice -versa, as ALL OTHER TEAMS fail in our region ie India, Sri Lanka & Pakistan.
Every nation prepares wickets suitable for home team - that's what we follow. To become a 'World Champion' a team has to master ALL types of wickets, but unfortunately not a single nation has that capacity at present. - We had it once, before our tigers like Zahir became purring cats.

Check the record of South Africa in India.. They have done very well.. Beaten Indian once and drawns 2 times... Australia have won in India and so has West Indies in the past.. whereas India has never won in Australia and South Africa ( Don't give that excuse of austalia cheating.. In this test match.. at least 3 kiws players are given wrongly out.. )
Again good play by Team India at Home ground. This habit needs to be continue, when playing in abroad grouds. Team India will be accepted worldwide only if their records at foriegn grounds will be improved. Bharat Kumar
