I AM AMAZED

The writer of this article makes a BIG NOISE on the heat being on the coach. Fine. Duncan Fletcher has some pressure.

But the way it is presented is coloured.

WHAT ABOUT SOME LITTLE HEAT ON THE ELEVEN PLAYERS THAT REPRESENTED INDIA ON THE FIELD?
WHAT ABOUT THEIR PERFORMANCE?
FLETCHER DID NOT PLAY. THESE PLAYERS DID.

Could there be some accountability on these players please?!??!

Yes, but what is the role of a coach? If the team members are loafing around, it is his duty to train them. Afterall, Fletcher is supposed to be a hard taskmaster.

No fit player for test
by pandharinath prabhurajivadekar on Dec 11, 2012 11:49 AM

I think after exit of Rahul/laxman/Kumble. There is no player in India who can stand test of five days. They are not mentaly as well as physically fit to play five day cricket. For players Cricket has become place to earn money for day to day living. With IPL and one dayers they make enough money. I think india should announce retirement from Test Cricket as a team. I dont think we will be a known test team now onwards.

Heat should be on Dhoni

Stop these guys from making fast buck thro' ads. They are not loyal to India. No one sweats out and we are lame ducks watching them fool around and make fortune out of us.

Cricket should be discouraged and individual games should be encouraged.

Whose choice was this !
by Bharat on Dec 11, 2012 11:12 AM  | Hide replies

its time to find out on the first place who recommended him - and what justification was provided at the time of his selection.

In case he was selected just to provide some people a free hand. Find them out and then dump them along with coach.

Don't think he is doing any good - and has added any value till date.

No strategy or road map seems to be there on his part.

High time for Indian Board to rethink and take a decision.

Dont Blame Fletcher...our so called cricketers dont have the attitude to play for the country and the fighiting spirit...they have been given more money than they actually deserve...how do you expect them to perform.....like in IAO BCCI needs to be kicked out of ICC for some time...may be we can learn a few lessons.

duncan should be dunked
by thomas mathew on Dec 11, 2012 11:01 AM

duncan fletcher may not be the cause of this state but he is ineffective and we need a person like Mohinder Amarnath who calls a spade a spade or like Greg Chappel who does not mind giving a nice slap even to a senior player if he does not perform well but maintaining arrogance , is needed for our team to turn around , if we can't get a person like Kirsten .Obviously , an old war horse like Duncan is not the choice come whatever may.
