We are losing because of lack of talent. Our batsmen lack the talent blunt out and survive against quality bowling and our bowlers don't have to bite to exploit favourable conditions to the fullest.
Its a biggest lie whenever our cricketing pundits say that there is lot of talent in India. That's wrong, we really do not have enough talent to put up a decent test team that can take on good opposition in challenging conditions.

mr venugopal you are over expecting with this team.it clearly indicates that none of the batsmen are technically fit. by so many losses in test matches ,the bcci shud have formed a new test team by now but they are just showing faith and seeing embrassments.
uts a shame that india cannot play well on bouncy and swinging pitches on foreign tours. too much dependence on too few players who are expected to bat, bowl and field is the result of such pathetic performance. Also T20 shots are much to be blamed. Test cricket is a 5 days affairs and we need solid openers like greenidge-haymes / slater-hayden etc. Sorry , India Team is test is not upto the mark and dont be surprised if ECB cuts the future tours to 2 or 3 test affairs in next trip to Great Britain
It is time India selects Anushka Sharma in the Indian cricket team, to partner Virat Kohli,when he bats, her presence on the pitch will help Kohli to get back his form,which presently has evaporated.
at least India won one test match. they can be assured no wash out. 5-0. Shewag should be back. Dhoni must think above self and pick the best,drop Kohi
All due to favoratism. Keeping match winners like Sehwag, Bhajji out and playing failures like Rohit, shekhar and Vijay. Lets see what BCCI fav. son Ashwin does.. Talking wont help.

the only solution is to have pacy pitches in India.Let India primarly be Sping freindly. But atleast every 3rd match played in India should be a pacy pitch. Only then our batsman and bowlers including spinners can win or atleast fight it out rather than going down cheaply every now and then
