Then I suggest you dont waste time here. Instead ask all SC/ST/BC/Minority people to stop watching Cricket. Automatically problems will be solved according to you
There is no weakness just the absence of Indian corporates in foreign conditions to buy the matches for Indian team so that the team members can hawk their third rate products!
Sehwag had an excellent run and record as an opener. But its time he is sent to the position where he belongs to, which is No.6. Test Openers need to decide and dictate the course of the match and it depends on the situation and opposition. So Sehwag can win 3 matches, but because of him we might loose 8 matches too. If we are any way loosing matches with ageing stars,

Actually Viru should be thrown out. He plays irresponsibly and media hails him as a hero.
When we accept that on foreign soil we cannot do as well as in home soil, we can take defeats and wins with equal composure. Are they not the same players? They are not like others we know who have reasons to play otherwise than their best. Be thankful that they are more worried and sorry than us.
It will be better if India cricket board hire Australia's stadium & their young bowler to arrange practice once a year for a month.India neither has such type pitch,nor fast bowler of that speed and swing and also the moist wind .

well better idea would be to hire australians to play tests for India ... how about that ?
this is sheer parochialism.All the players failed .maybe Shrisanth had failed it would have been a good selection? The truth is except on occasions india has always played badly abroad.It is because of the docile nature of pitches here which allows players to score multiple centuries at ease.same is true for bowlers .the spinning pitches promotes mediocre bowlers to perform rather well and when they go abroad they struggle.The correct approach is to have at least a dozen fast pitches like they are abroad and then the batsmen and bowlers will get practice.
