dude, first and foremost , it is not the fault of our atheletes, im in no way sayin that they dont lack killer instinct, they definately do but its becuase of the facilities we are providing them, im now living in new zealand after living 22 years in india..the quality of facilities that new zealand provides even to 3 and 4 year olds is phenomenal , 500 acre grounds with courts and trainers for free to teach young kids, with flood lights to play at night , and every sport gets the same treatement, rugby is like the life and blood of new zealand but the facilities for cricket are so phenomenal its like a lords stadium for every school to practice on, and all this is done by the government, secondly we are a country raised on vegetarian food which quite frankly 90% of the world doesnt eat, every culture is raised on meat eating and excercise which doesnt apply in india, every animal and every human being is god and goddess for us so we practically rule out all sorts of food which is necessary for atheletic performance,take jains for eg , they dont even eat food grown underground like onions and potatoes, i really dont know what they live on to be honest,dont blame our atheletes , blame the politicians who mint the money expensed by government for atheletes and fill their swiss accounts with that money, i totally support our atheletes and after coming to nz i realised what a crap load of s*#$ we are brought up on in our great country with the s&*&^ people
