This defeat proves that our players are not playing for the passion for the game. If they really do play for the passion they would have shown a little grit to face the fire of the fast bowlers. Instead they all were seen trying to defend their well being instead of trying to defend timber ! Understandably their prime concern to save their body is money oriented to earn millions through just posing infront of cameras without any harm to their well being. I wonder if there could be a possibility to make a rule to call back the non- performing players, leaders, teachers, beurocrats, ministers, police and defence personnels.

First ----- give benefit of doubt to players ? why ? ----- BCCI should take responsibility and make steps to make some good bouncy pitches --- dismiss DUNCAN FLETCHER and get someone else ---- purchase some bowling machines as well
This losing trend will continue till Scahin gets his 100th 100.But then he will aim for 125th 100 at the cost of an young player's place and team's performance. This will go on till his own son will knock the doors for national team slot. Please give him Bharat Ratna and tell him to quit cricket and concentrate on some cricket commentary like Saurav.

aboslutely right. If sachin is great why he not performed. Atleast he could have save India. Understand team performance should be greater than individual performance. His 100*100 should help india for a victory.

He failed only in Perth. Earlier two tests he was the highest scorer. Go and check your brain

Oooh.. What was the highest he scored? Pls educate me. He can be good player but when his relatively low profile opponents score triple hundreds against the best(!!!) Indian attack he strggles against a worst Australian attack, his calibre is really questionable. It is country, should always come first.

so u want to say that he dosent think about ...dont give lectures on country first............... wat your younger players r donig????? his innings in first two tests showed that still his class is different.....but its a team game all have to perform.....if others scoring three hundred it means ur bowling is substandard
Now they have to give chances to Rahane,Rohit and say bye to Dravid,Laxman,Gauti or Viru. Anyway we cant expect too much from Rahane & Rohit who doesnt have experience, Atleast they will have a chance for learning which will be helpful in future where our seniors players could not able 2 learn after batting 4-5 innings.
The Pitches in Bangladesh have suddenly turned green. It didnt suit our batsmen who were taken by suprise.Our bowlers did the job in getting them out once but batsmen failed miserably.Hope we do well against Ireland in the next series.

seriously --- like Indian economy? ----- they were ruled by mughlas british and now Italians and scottizsh
As a captain, Dhoni looks in immense shit right now and should be immediately stripped off. Also, it is time to give a good break or drop the openers. The erfect team to atleast battle something for Adelade is :- 1.Parthiv, 2 Rahane 3.Virat 4.Tendulkar 5.Rohit 6.Pujara 7.Zaheer 8.Umesh 9.Ojha 10.Ishant 11.Dravid (haha - as his wickets are cleaned up so well so he belongs to tailenders.)

Sachin Tendulkar to donate 10,000 runs to India to get over ‘selfish player’ image
is neither good for test nor for ODi/T20. he is a mediocre player.
In ODI he manipulate his batting order according to situation......... when it is easy going he comes ahead of UV and raina....but when the situation is tough.... he hides behind those same batsmen
Bcci always want to prepare flat placid track to create records like Viru getting 200 and who ever kuppan & suppan they bring will score century in indian pitches. Very soon in Indian pitches Indians will get 500 Runs in ODI format. And In future overseas test they will get all out with in 10-15 overs for a score of less than 50.
Re: Bcci Will never change.

You are right, Kuppan and Suppan will score in India and will others score outside India
