Indian team performance will never improve. Players have also become businessmen.Just look at the Pathan brothers.They are not to be seen anywhere in cricket. Within the next two months they will become fit and raring to go.

Yes, fully agree with you. Same with S. Sreesanth. There is more money in IPL than playing for Indian Team plus all that is required is to play one season of 30 days. Remaining 11 months you can relax. So naturally the preference is shifting to IPL.
i wonder y sri now want dhoni to step down... he should not have made the capt at all. in fact not in the team... from here on wards ...india will be like in 70's
Our MP Sachin should go on for ever .He is lord of the lord .He should make record for maximum appearances in ODI,Tests etc..even if he makes any number of zeros.Even if India is whitewashed we should not lose our cool
He has already told them to decide his future in Team India if they have the guts.I doubt if sachin has the maturity to leave international cricket without being completely humiliated by all teams.It will become Sunami from disaster for us if he is allowed to play any more in Team India
The guy chickened out when Mohinder ask for his head & rather toed the line of dictator in BCCI who is also from his province.How would Dhoni fit in as test batsman & keeper after his failure on both fronts if sacked as Captain?

though laxman was a superb player in his hey days, of late I do not think he might make much of an impact.
he has lost that fluency, footwork, agility and the timing that made him a class apart..
Also India should consider think the future.. Players like laxman, sachin, sehwag, dhoni r not the future of Indian cricket..

Except in Aus series, his batting was batting was good. Planning for future is fine, we don't need Dhoni. Instead of elevating someone like Kohli it is better to have a captain who will be focuessed on planning the future for the team rather than own commercial commitments.

This is the difference between a Good and intelligent CAPTAIN and just a good player/keeper being a selfish Captain winning matches because of an excellent TEAM built by the unity, intelligence and hardwork of someone else.
