Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! With a heavy heart I tell you all my countrymen to stop watching cricket. All the players and teams are helpless at the hands of the match fixers. Dont watch the game. Only that can save it.
They have hit us in the heart and made us all weep for their failure. Let us hit them in their pockets where they have stashed their gain from the advertisements and endorsements.
Each player in the team should be asked to give back atlease 50% of his income from other sources since the last world cup. The funds collected should be used to start a Cricket Academy which can spot and train new players.
And yes, the players in the current team should also be asked to do community-service by giving free coaching and training at the Academy till the next world cup.

Man this is how you react to the cricket team... what would you do to the army. It is a game and big upsets happen. Not the first time that it did. Get a life and focus on other sports as well.
BCCI should make a good use of their over-flowing funds by organizing shadow world cup 2007 at India by inviting all eight teams crashed out of WC at West Indies. So that India and Pakistan cam make some world records against new criket playing nations.

hahahaha! but are you sure these eight countries will be defeated next time they play? Don't be so confident about India buddy!
We should all stop buying products that these shameless cricketers are endorsing and making millions and start hurting the bottomlines of the corporate giants so that they do not signup these characters and leave them to play for the country.

The companies are giving the money to do ads.. BCCI is selecting them to play. They did toil to get into the team.. I agree that they sucked big time and didn't come together as team. So stop showing interest in the game as such and all of this will come down. Nobody used a tax payer's money to pay them for the ads. So chill.
I think there should be a blanket ban on Indian Team players doing all sorts of advertisements on TV. They are more concerned with minting money on adv rather than playing well for the country.

that's their prerogative and BCCI's ruling. Don't play a headmaster of old school

Did you see the Australia and South Africa game today? That's what a real cricket is. India ki izzat thee hi kab? We were the most over hyped and over-rated team to begin it. We are not even a 'team' in a real sense of the word. What with all the fractions and egos. The team met its destiny. They were not outstanding to start with. And that is why they are out.
the match loss by indian team clearly tells that it is the time to change the team india. otherwise , people will feel shame to say the indian team as our TEAM INDIA.
dada nana kaka sab budhe ho gaye team change karo puri ki puri. itni badi jansakhya main bahut saare acche acche ladke balla pakad kar baithe hain cricket ko politics se alag karo. izzat lutwa di desh ki sharam karo.
India's failure is clear msg to team management that all their plans/decision were sheer failure. Team management is to be blamed who tried to amend things, tried to accommoade failures into team. We had four openners,Sachin,Sourav, Sehwag, Robin, why didn't we choose the best combination? Sachin-Sourav or Sachin-Sehwag or Sachin-Robin??? Why do we have accommodate rest of these players??? Change BCCI president who doesn't even what cricket is all about!!! The time has come to chnage capton, coach,BCCI board and their working systems. DON'T PLAY WITH INDIA'S PRIDE, and make cricket more proffessional.
