Traditionally over the cricketing history, Indian Players have been very good IInd. Inning players. A case of too little too late. But better late than never
dhoni is similar to dada. he chooses his own players who sings praises of him, never bother if we win or lose, its the same face we could see in all the formats. dada's chamchas were bhajji and viru. dhonis chamchas are ashwin, jaddu and ishant. its time the selectors are ruthless in picking players on performance rather than with political background.

...and looking at the complete flop show, it seems nearly entire team is supporting Kohli, except for dhoni and ishant who after being flow in so many series are now trying to give their best to save their a**.
boring line by ashwins, media boost that ishants coming will boostindian boling attacks wht happens. miches will finish by 4th day lunch time with ENG wins series 3-1
The real culprit is our own BCCI. Earlier all greats were playing county cricket once in while so they know handle swing a bit . BTW england in practice matches the wickets were flat . No movement. IPL has destroyed Indian young cricket . All wicket to wicket to spinner like jadeja or akshar patel. No one like to spin the ball they will get hammered and will lose contract. But former players can not speck as they get money from BCCI and some of them are mentor of IPL franchise .
It would be nice if they can somehow manage to at least score a triple digit score. Already know the score card for second innings: Murali 0 Gambier 2 Pu karma 0 Khoi as usual 0 Ajinkya 10 Dhoti 50 Bunny 0 Ash win 10 Buvi 2 Ishant 0 Vaaron 0

I expect following scores: Murali 20 Gambier 5 Pu karma 7 Khoi as usual 3 Ajinkya 28 Dhoti 60 Bunny 12 Ash win 28 Buvi 8 Ishant 6 Vaaron 1
All Out 188
So yeah it will be better performance than first innings but we still lose by innings and 150 runs.
Besides the batting failure, it is of utmost importance that Dhoni should take a break from Indian Cricket. The way in which he is handling the bowling is terrible. He has selected a team but not giving the opportunity to the right bowler. Y is Binny being allowed to bowl so many overs? See the amount of runs he has given away. Besides the incapability I also feel that there is some thing much more serious happening.
