Your bowling was atrocious. One day wonders Vinay, Ashwin cant compete in the international scene. This is the result of ignoring time tested Harbhajan, Munaf Patel, Sreesanth. Even Ojha and Rahul Sharma would have bowled much better
we miss your leadership. You built a great team from scratch. These guys reaped the benefits..but now cant hold on to the same team forget building a new team.

look at ganguly, it was because of ganguly that sachin, dravid laxman kumble bhajji etc. came into the team otherwise they would never have played international cricket....
yesterday night in a talk show on Times Now, some panelists berated kapil dev for saying that sachin should have retired from ODI's after the world cup 2011. the panelists view was sachin is a "legend" "god of indian cricket", he is above criticism, the decision of retirement should be left to him. it is because of such sycophants like kiran more & ravi shastri that indian cricket is being harmed.the 2 series in england & australia have exposed sachin's weakness & technical defiency in tackling genuine quality fast bouncy deliveries(more than 150 km/hr).

Crazy fans indeed!! Ashwin had 1 decent series abroad and Kohli has 2 good innings out of 8. This makes them captaincy material??
Under Dhoni , this team became #1 in test and ODIS and decline too. Under Dhoni, India won it's first T20 Int. at SA and WC 2011 also under him. He is the best captain India has ever produced and under him only India can flourish.
Why after so many chances Raina hiding behind others..just scoring 30odd runs are not enough, he should play big role as he is getting consistent batting time in match..look at hussy,anjelo mathews. How many years he will remain juniour? same with jadeja..he never cross 20-30, never hit big shots which his place require that ability....who will look these weak link of dhonis' best favorite friends.
