Dear Suresh
========

it is not indian players nothing wrong with them
------
It is about improving Technique

AUSTRALIA have bouncu tracks
have well built bowlers who can deliver with 145 MPH speed
----
so our Team Coach ,BCCI management should have mimumn programm to prepare the Team for such a tour
======
Bowling machines in Indoor nets
making Indian pitches 2 of them Bouncy

will make changes in right direction

results will be visible over time
=========
But if we just sack players ,replace them ,drop them etc

we are not attacking root causes with correct policies

we might damage our Cricket itself like HOCKEY

=====
so let us reform BCCI first and ask them to frame right policy and adopt it

Iam sure results will follow as well

aussie beat SL in SL, than 1-1 against SA in SA. only they lost one test against NZL but it was 1-1 in series. consider india. won 1-0 against WI, then lost 4-0 to englan, 2-0 against WI. which team you will consider better. just think if india had performed like aus beating SL in SL and drawing series in SA. we would have considered it historic achievement.

Kohli needs to assert himself with score

I feel Laxman was set for score ,the ball was too acurate for bails ,maybe he tought ,it is going above bails height

Mindset

Indians are the ODI world champions. In ODIs, a score of 300 is a competitive score and mostly a winning total. Players have get tuned to this and that is why they are getting out below 300 in test innings. Now that they have scored 400 in a test innings, their performance in ODI may take a dip.

Sarfaroz suppandi should have been prefered ahead of P Sanyal. He can bat and bowl with right and left hands, can field in any positions, do wicket keeping and carry drinks to the field. Rest of the selection is OK.

I think you are right.
Let us take out Sanyal and put in Suppandi, though I feel sad - Sanyal is a good bowler and bats reasonably too. He even scores runs sometimes.

Zubair

Thank you. This team is selected after a lot of analysis, thinking and talent searching. Batsmen like Joseph Thomas are of rare talent. He has broken three windows in my galli in the past 3 years, and mind you we play using only tennis ball. Imagine what will happen to the windows if we used real cricket ball. I think this team will surely solve all our problems.

our massive loss to australia, shattered saina nehwal (an avid cricket fan)so much that the poor thing was crushed in 2 straight games by an unknown chinese in today's quarter final bout in the victor korean open 2012,presently on @ seoul. saina is our gold medallist hope for london olympics 2012.

In Aust - they have nation wide
Programm - Grass roots cricket (AUS cricket board plus Commonwealth Bank )
=====
question is
why BCCI so powerful with cash
has no Nation wide policy

only some Azhar or Irfan Pathan will start Cricket academy
but will it be accessible by Indians especially Rural and tier 2 cities in India
=====
CWG stadia is only in new delhi so school kids or college kids in new delhi access but not other parts of India CORRECT ?

Re: picture

why BCCI
===========
Not building Indoor nets at major Indian cricket stadiums

why we do not buy Bowling machine and employ hot spot tech

In that way - we can simulate 145 MPH speed deleveries with swing and bounce in those indoor nets

indian batsmen before embark on overseas tour especially - aust,eng or south africa

use those infoor nets and emply hot spot tech to review their own video footage to see if ball made contact with bat on edge or surface
==========
then Batsmen can practise in indoors till he gets Footwork ,and body movement plus bat movememnt correct

they can do outdoor nets
===
then when they tour australia ,they would have worked out their technoque ?
=======
we have ISRO (with moon mission 2 ) experienced in robotics
Tata consultancy service provide software to ferrari racing car
so we can ask them to customise the BOWLING MACHINE before installing at the indoor nets as well

Spineless Batting by so called Paper Tigers Indian Batsmen
by sriraam subramaniam on Jan 06, 2012 01:21 PM  | Hide replies

It is really pathetic that we are getting defeated again and again. What is Dhoni and Fletcher doing? Are they not able to direct or motivate the so called Indian World Class Batsmen Sachin,Dravid,Sehwang, Lakshman?

How is that a much lower ranked and weaker Team like New Zeland won in the Second Test and Levelled the Series? It is better that the Indian Team come back and let us send a Youth Team and get defeated in the reamaining Tests. What the selectors are doing? BCCI shame on you.

Both Kohli ,Rohit and Raina are all good and young players

soon seniors will make way in near future

we should mould these young guns with modern coaching methods and technologies like bowling machines

Virat Kohli has compact footwork and I feel he will become a good player

Australia is a tough place to tour

so let us keep things in perspective as well

When ponting, clarke and hussey can do, what's wrong with sehwag, dravid, tendulkar,dhoni and other so called glam boys.truly spineless. the prediction is all our batsmen will dance at the crease with 4-0 in avour of australia.
