why this happened? The players did not play well. They weren't worried about this match, were complacent & all their concentration was with IPL launched by BCCI. So, Is the BCCI responsible? BCCI! yeah they are responsible. Wait a second. Do you think they would have tried to arrange this drama in some other country. "remember Gilchrists comment on the reception we showed to these entertainers(they aren't national leaders - no self sacrifice)". So its we who are responsible. Most of us blame the IPL. But how many of us would boycott it to teach these fellows who are making a mockery of us, a lesson. Say, if among 100 of us, 50 decide to boycott & 50 others will see an opportunity for free ticket. With this kind of mentality prevailing with us, things will never improve, let it be cricket, politics or research. I work with a govt research centre. When I entered with my frds(youngsters). They all started blaming the seniors for not having created the right environment. But, I see them gradually taking the positions(characters) of those persons whom they were blaming. So, its we who are to be blamed for the whole mess that is happening in this country. Its not enough with we just becoming true to what we do. We should also stand up to support others who stand for the truth/right. & when this happens, slowly all the weeds in this country will be thrown out. JAI HIND.

Seriously, I find people like u really funny. I would even go on to say, "i'm not proud(communal violence, rape, chicanery, corruption..) of my country". It hasn't produced that many quality people considering our population - 100 crores. This is my motherland & i'm debted to it (this is different). Don't be just emotional, put ur brain to think & stand for the right.

what do you say that you are not proud of the country. You try to be too intellectual and lose the basics. Its easy to say that you are not proud of the country and start doing same communal violence rape chichanery corruption by yourself, as other criminals do. All the criminals have strong reasons to say for that. If you are not proud of the country you cant be a good citizen of the country.
You dont have to keep on searching the 100 crore people for a good soul, good leader, good politician, search you and try to be one. Then India will be alright by itself. Please dont speak rubbish....
