Cricket in India.
by ramprakash bagree on Mar 24, 2007 05:11 PM

India's Debacle in the world cup 07,few reasons:-1/Lack of sincere effort to improve cricket by politicians who are not only interfering by virtue of posts they held but also lack of desire to earn fame & name.
2/Probable nexus between betting syndicates,
3/Poor selection- Agarkar is always in playing 11,when he is fit,where as Shreesant & Pathan have to just watch from pavilion.[He is responsible for many defeats in the past.can check his record.]
4/Coincidence!1987 wc-semifinal- Kapil won the toss & put England to bat contrary to experts advice that team winning toss will bat first,1995-6, wc- semifinal-Azharuddin's famous invitation to lanka for batting first t Kolkatta cost India the berth in final!1999 wc- The players responsible for early exit were A zharuddin AS CAPTAIN & Agarkar as bowler.
2003-Sorav invited Australlia.Dravid is the poorest captain ever of any cricket team in India.[He is an exceelent player, no doubt]
