I am still not able to grasp even after having followed the game blancing passion with reason: Why are we not CONSISTENT? I feel disgusted being an Indian hearing press conferences from Australian and South African teams. They back up teir loathful talks with actions on field. Our cricketers earn more than these players ( I presume this), they are provided with the best infrastructure (at least when they rech the cream layer) then what is it. I am forced to reason
1) Is this the PSYCHE?
2) Our cultural upbrinings?
3) What is it that we dont have that the aussies and south africans have?
4) Even the weather is predictable nowadays, but not these (I dont know what to call them)
This is not a new phenomenon. This was apparent when even the greats were playing. So please, the manjrekars, the shastris and gavaskars, stay out of this debate, coz none of you deserve to answer these questions I have posed other than a psychologist!

Absolutely we cant replace genes - whites are superior than us no doubt physically n one thing they luv their game while playing - but indians are not bad either they have to play to their potentials - our balling is not great but we can atleast improve our fielding n back up our ballers - consistency is the key factor for india

I think that the reasons that Indians aren't good sportsmen are:
1. We are not strong enough physically! Thats quite difficult to oversome because of genetics...
2. We lack determination... one must play their heart out to win!
