India has gone with out of form Shewag,Gambhir,VVS,Uselesses like Dhoni,Kohli where as this ba---d Dhoni dropped class players like Badri,Pujara,Murali Vijay,A.Mukund & D.karthik. Further the fellow has not given chance to Mukund in England tour, not allowed badri to play in WI but still giving chance to Gambhir & Kohli. These fellows will play once in 20 tests & they will be retained. Any how good luck for Shewag & let the ba--d Dhoni be sacke from team.
Sehwag is never under pressure as he is never bothered who is bowling to him.He treats all bowlers with equal contempt. In fact,the whole India team is hardly under pressure as they bother not whether they can avoid innings defeat or not. Nobody expects India to win a test against Australia. So,why should they be under pressure?

The point here is 'redemption'- No one expects them to win - but seeing them crumble like the pack of cards against OZ bowling once again, will not do any good to the individual careers of the present team players.
Hence each one needs to do some introspection and find himself a way to hang around and defy the OZ bowling.
The war is lost but a 'battle' can still be won ! mentally atleast !

They have already done that on field in last three games.
Actually this time they could have spent time on sea shore/ Golf club/ go carting/ beach volley ball/ or plain sun bathing, because no efforts are going to change results of series now & makes no difference to Indian people, as the team has slipped (also sleeped- slept) in ranking

They are so bothered that they are not even getting proper erections in bed, poor guys :)
I, the smallest common cricket loving indian who hasn't the slightest idea or experience of facing a delivery bowled at 140 kms/hour , cannot in my wildest imagination , understand, how a net practice session of three or four hours with the same average, inacurate and slower pace Indian bowlers will do any good to one's batting skills and prepeare him in anyway to face the speed and accuracy of australian bowlers - May be the the Indian must invite the fast OZ 'county bolwers' to get a feel of the type of bolwing they do - or even BCCI could contract the OZ mainstream bolwers to bowl at the Indian in the nets before test matches.
BUT I don't wish take away anything from the Indian squad who still are the best we could send to OZ
- Are there some better players - youngsters ? - yes ! with little of no experience and who need to wait -
So is BCCI ready to change the selection criteria - youth over competency - chance over experience -
Rather a big NO! given the huge corporate endorsing and backing this sport has in India -
We need the STARS to buy our products -even a pepsi wouldnt sell if Sachin didnt endorse.
The value- bank of our society is almost bankrupt and still has heroism, image worshipping and fantasies strongly at its very root.
So whats the problem if our STARS fail - they still the best we have !
Cricket won't change as often as our governments in 5 years.
