Its surprising that even Mr. Gavaskar fights shy to name players who should improve upon his credential to play for India. Quite unfortunate we Indian dare but little to speak up for the good of the country. Money, surely and undoubtedly playing havoc even for people like Gavaskar act Timid.If we dont blame captain and or coach for the debacle of such nature then whom to. We cant blame every individual soldier for the defeat but the General only who failed to inspire and utilise his force against the the enemy. Mr. Ravi Shashtri also found to be hiding and not even a single word has so far been uttered by him against the quality of captain ship of Mr. Dhoni while many of the foreign players have spoken a lot. Dada was so bad for him and he spoke more than necessary against him at some point of time ; same is true for Mr. Kapil.But no one seems bothered / dare even speaking a little against sridhoni. Alas!
all three platforms are totally out performed by English teams. Why Gavaskar what happened to all these so called machos. Gambhir was sitting and playing like a freighted school kid. It seems these people are fit to be cheer leaders than to play for the country. There must be a new team for Australia. Dump them. BCCI is board of clumsy cricket
On the field he was a gutsy player but now he is BCCI chamchaa. How many tours they will say its a inexperienced team. Gavaskar was worried about his contract when IPL responsibility was given. Gavaskar can poke only at Australia and England not against BCCI.
Dhoni is a good ODI captain but when it comes to building a team he is no where near Dada. Look at the players Dada has groomed-Zaheer, Viru, Yuvi, Bhajji.. all match winers. Dhoni won 2 world cups with the help of them and taken all credit. Name a single match winning palyer Dhoni has groomed??? Where is Dhoni's fans hiding now????

Very true. Dhoni has some good qualities, but is completely overrated based on the results he was lucky to get.
After rigorous IPL T20 macthes Dhoni & Co. are relaxing in England and also will get relaxed in Australia till Feb-15 and will be fresh and active for IPL-2015 matches. Anyway Srini is there to protect them. All is well!
Most of the cricketers, perhaps until now exceptional Dhoni too, got influenced by the situation seems, for, the cash rich IPL provides money as well as fame that the cricketers are least bothered to perform for the nation. Rather they are more concerned to perform in the IPL for, if they lose the lucrative contract their career is doomed and even if they lose the national call they are capable of managing with IPL. Idiots only repeat the mistakes, Indian team gets bracketed with their performance not only just concluded England tour but the previous tours of Australia and England's India tour too were Indians were beaten black and blue. Isn't Sri Lankan team better that they drew the series with England just before India tour?? They are also from the sub-continent, with the same limitations if they could perform why not Indians.
I think the bowlers are to be equally blamed. Its suprising to see our bowlers were struggling to get them out while they got us out twice. Our so called successful bowlers on our flat pitches could not bowl out the opposition under bowler suited conditions. What happened to the rib barrage after the second innings of Lords? Why not play fast bowlers like Umesh Yadav instead of idiots like Binny? Yadav is even a better bat like Bhuvi.
