A one time the Indian Cricket team were considered to be tigers at home. They were today proven to be domesticated cats by the not so much star - studded cricketers of English team. Shame on the Indian Star Studded batting line up consisting of Shewag. Tendulkar. Dhoni. Ghambir. Yuvraj. for displaying such lackless application and that too against spinners of England that come no where near Shane Warne nor Muthiah Muralitharan, especially when Indian batsman are famed to tackle spinners better than players of any other country.
I think dhoni;s problem when he walks out to bat he thinks he is giving catching practice to the Indian fielders...have you noticed how he always steers a ball up into one of the five slips hands ? Dhoni was lucky to get more test & world cup at indian picthes and good players they can play well at sub continent pitches Dhoni never performed or did anything. It just others where performing and he got all credit for doing nothing. In world cup also he did not perform at all but till get credit. Mark Waugh was right when he mention that Dhoni does nothing and just wait for things to happen. And we indian thoguht he is cool. All hardwork is done by Sachin, Viru, Rahul, Zaheer and he get all credit. thats too bad
He ran out of luck no sooner the tension of real cricket knocked at his door.The abject surrender in England & now in Australia exposed not only his thoughtless captain-ship but also the poor technique both as a batsman & keeper.You can't win matches by being a mute spectator behind the stumps & waiting for something to go in your favor.The selectors obviously will not take any strong measures under instructions fro mafia in BCCI & sponsors who have put millions in brand Dhoni which has been sent to laundry by English & Australian cricketers
indian team can't play pace and spin..they can play only medium pace that to on flat pitch. when toured england except dravid no one able to handle pace in australia virat kohli..only resisted in 2 innings. currently indian team dont have quality spin bowlers. ashwin is gud for 20-20,50 over games. the middle is order is weaklink the indian batting order.
sachin want to prove something....but last 4 series he failed miserably. v.kohli need to learn how to play test cricket. yuvraj can't play spin,pace... no words to describe viru,gambhir.
but the great dhoni should learn that he is not made for test cricket.
on spinning track we are beaten by 10 wkts that give strong indication that we need to kick the seniors urgently.
in the 2nd test two players for india pujara and ohja but england have four KP cook panes and swan. kick out sachin, dhoni and bhaji. dhoni have his explanation for every failure. indian spinners also try to bowl like they are in a oneday match aswin also a big failure and i think this is time for selecting and setting priority for the right format for every player
BCCI should not make duplicate policy. Dravid & Laxman were drop from the team due to poor performance at Australia tour & Sachin should also be dropped now with immediate effect because he will himself will not retire.
