It seems to me that we are happiest when the team does badly. After a victory like yesterday on home soil after nearly a quarter of a century, there is no joy in the responses. It's as if our Indian fans are frustrated at being deprived of the opportunity to abuse and criticise their cricket heroes!

its because everyone knew that.pakistan is now a weaker team than india.only if india manage to do that against aussies,then only we will know how much improvement is there(or there isnt any?).but i doubt as team's fielding is really pathetic and most of our batsmen dont like moving ball.so they r goin to have harrowing team in australia(INCLUDING DHONI,GANGULY,YUVRAJ,UTHAPPA).but who cares ,they will come back , hit few fifties on slow indian wickets,and retain their place.so, i feel dravid along with sachin r still the best in india as their techniques r not flawed.others have really terrible record abroad(outside subcontinent)!!!

Well, if it was so clear that Pakistan was the weaker team, then why did u watch the series ? HAHAHAHAHA... no answer right ?
Its the same with people who think every match is fixed. You just have to ask them if every match is fixed, then why are you watching it for God's sake ?
and you'll get no answer !
If thats your criteria then you shouldnt watch any cricket except the matches with Australia right because those are just waste of time ! Right ?

But its more. Most cricket fans and TV commentators like Kirti Azad for that matter realise they will never be able to make as much money as our cricket stars make, so its an avenue to throw the jelousy out.
No wonder everybody ignores them.
I mean imagine there are still people in this country who think Sachin Tendulkar should retire !
I mean the Australian and Pakistanis must be laughing in their rooms. These Indians sure know how to shoot themselves in the foot. hahaha
See how Ian Chappell wanted to end Sachin's career and he didnt fall into the trap ?
There are Indian people who support Ian Chappel for that.
Tells you a lot about our collective intelligence.
