In Test cricket, sorry to say sachin has been a miserable failure..
all his runs barring a few have no significance at all to the end result.
The poor chap is confused about his game and the fame and name... or his shrewd manipulation of down to earth simpleton personality has backfired finally because of some ruthless bowling by England and Aussies...
Fact remains, if going gets tough, Sachin wont be seen anywhere in the vicinity..
This Indian Loser cricket team should be given Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratan Award. The award named after the person who had nothing to do with sports is most appropriate for this team.
Srikanth regional feelings killed the spirit of whole team. Instead of taking blame, he is shifting the blame on Dhoni. He selected following players in last 4 years.
Vijay Murali - Average is 30 in tests and 15 in ODIs Abhinav Mukund - Average is 20 Badri - Average is 20 in tests and 15 in ODIs Dinesh Karthik - Played 23 tests and 52 ODIS. Average is 25 only. Scored only one century
Ashwin - Took only 4 wickets in 2 test matches against Australia eventhough Australians are vulnerable to Spin Balaji - Forget about him. played 30 ODIs and 10 test matches
Nearly half the tamil nadu team. if one fails, he gave chance to other tamil.
He killed the spirit of whole team with his idiotic approach and non sense reasons. He needs to take the responsibility and need to step down. If Ashwin fails, Srikanth is planning to give opportunity to his Son Anirudh in the name of all rounder
now time come for new plyear coz india need this i think give chance to rohit sharma its fine bet in odi and also test and bring momd kaif he also useful in test cricket
1) Sachin is 38 years old and if even at this stage, he has to be in team, by international standards, he should be a no-way avoidable player and recent matches show us he is not. The results would have been no less better if he wasnt there in the team.
2) By being in the team and not performing in crucial situations (note: performing means not scoring and having the team lose, but scoring and getting the team to win) inspite of the numerous oppurtunities provided to him even at this age, he caused loss of place to a younger cricketer (who knows somebody like a Kohli could have scored more runs and avoided match defeats atleast).
3) Sachin skipped the West Indies tour very smartly with plea he wanted to be with his family. Now that it was projected that his team had won the world cup for him who had served the country for 21 years, doesnt it become his duty that he serve the country team on a tough tour and prepare for the series against Eng or Aus. Or is that he doesnt consider those tours as significant ? - a serious question that can be asked on his so called commitment.
4) Not even once we have come across a news item regarding an India away tour on Aus, SA or England where we read that Sachin played a great innings and carried India to victory. (Eg: in 1999 Captain Steve Waugh of Australia played the magnificient 120 against South Africa in England on a Fast bouncy pitch against Fiery fast bowlers of the likes of Donald and Pollock to rescue Australia from dire strait

Well said. Ponting is 23 years old and hence the main player in Aus. :-)

Correct, but why such a lousy & lengthy message that too at night?
ppl seem to be more talking about batting as the reason.. bowling is equally a shame.. remembe india coult NOT bowl out england not even once in the entire series. same case.. out 8 innings of 4 teste .. india managed to boulout Aus only once.. such a shame
Srikanth needs to take the responsibility and need to resign. We need a new selection panel who can come up with fresh ideas. Also it is better to remove Srinivasan. He along with Srikanth created the whole mess.

Why selection commitee to blame when the batsman are not played upto the mark.
Y coach & Captain not used the bench candidate when he & whole team knows the end result (Failure/Loser)
