nobody is giving credit to sachin which was diverted to him when he played in the odis...since then our odi wins are credited to the other team members...
now that sachin is no longer in the odi side the blame for winning is taken by bcci/csk...
since srt retired we have played 40 odis and we have won in 26 odis and lost in 12 and 2 washed out....

and forgot to add..just 5 odis out of 26 odis against SA in SA..
5 tests out of 40 against australia in aus..5 out of 52 against england in eng ..5 out of 21 against NZ in NZ..just 2 out of 26 against pak in pak..
dude our team has never been good enuff on foreign soil..pak just defeated SA in SA.,..boils down to our pathetic bowlers..and why even blame them..the way we prepare pitches in India..ball doesn't bounce above thigh level..
hope BCCI ko akal aye..and we start winnin matches all round the world..

they are saying life without tendulkar as if he was responsible for many wins outside india...when he was there as you pointed out our record was still worse in sa eng aus...i hope at least now you get my sarcasm...
btw if we are known as tigers at home and lambs abroad...it is mainly because of previous players and not current generation players...
in fact it is people like gavaskar vishwanath vengsarkar mohinder sachin dravid laxman ganguly and others who are responsible for our reputation abroad...
and actually it is the generation X players who are trying to rectify that reputation and succeeding to some extent....
these new players have hardly played many tests away tests and are in no way responsible for tigers at home and lambs abroad image...
quite the opposite they have won T20 wc in SA and triseries in Aus...besides champions trophy in england etc...
