India performane was very good in 2005 and captain was dravid ..everybody knows that we chase consecutive 17 games.. that time yuvraj, kaif mongia raina and dravid play excellent.. In 2006, performance was suddenly down... what reason???

When Saurav was removed the team built by was still there. The spirit and the team won the matches. When dravid took over and started experimenting gradually the same team went astray and dtarted failing.

Money may be the reason as per some news chennels BCCI before sending team to WC they told some senior players that they will be paid as per their performance, in 2005 it may be different situation as far as money matters are concern. So players must have thought that it is not BCCI who will perform in middle of the field, some players must have decide to teach BCCI a lesson that do not mess with seniors otherwise result will be worst then what is was in 2005.

But this is fact.. some indian players are playing only for their record.. we observed that once they make 50 threw wicket.. they don t play for country... there are still internal problem. no team work .. different group... if one player droped his group not perform..if one sebior player in team he emphasises to take other player from his group,...this is our tragedy.. you can see why sreesanth/kumble was out in crucial match..
