Agreed in Australia the umpires seemed biased but what stopped the Indian team from winning in the test matches and one day matches in India. Forget Australia, we dont even win in New Zealand or for that matter south Africa.
India first needs to win, we all agree we have the best batsman, best bowlers, richest board but winning percentage Pakistan's and South Africa has better winning averages than India

You must have the tolerance to accept statements that do not match your opinion. "Shut up" is not the what Indians are famous for. No other country has as many religions living together largely peacefully as India has. Don't spoil this image, which has been earned over centuries.

Haatim, we are not saying we are a better team and deserve to win. We are the underdogs. Underdogs do win some times and there was a opportunityin the 2nd test which was methodically crushed by the umpires. I saw all the clips . About 8 decisions went against 1 team in 1 match. Tha is enoughto ruin the morale and give chance to the opponents.

totally agree with Haatim that India needs to play better to register more wins in the record books. At the same time, when they feel wronged, its very much their responsibility and not only a right to complain about it.

You said it Pal. In spite of all that happened in the Sydney test, Indians didn`t show that much courage and gumption to try for a draw. When Kumble could stay put there, why the others didn`t even try.Look at the way all the big guns of the first innings played in the second innings.There was no attempt to play for a draw. One thing is certain. Indian team allways fail collectively. they have never won with collective effort.They win only when they are allowed to by the opposition.

subramanyam this is nothing but sour grapes.The indian team wants to prove that they have lost because of poor umpiring and not because of bad performance in both tests.

yes you are right INDIAN PLAYERR CRY BABIES. if bOARD OR selectors bring players from the street where they were habituated to cry when they lost and feel happy when they win - it is the common tendency of indians - this is due to lack of confidence, few players make good runs and bowl few good deliveries and start searching for money by involving them into advertisement etc. THE PLAYERS SHOULD STOP SUCH KIND OF STREET PLAYERS AND CONCNTRATE ON REAL PLAY, THEY CAN BEAT ANY ONE INCLUDING AUSTRALIAN.
