So much preparation, So much hype and so much drama by Indian cricket team, Film starts trying to make their presence felt in motivating the team, Bunch of more fools and less jokers (Commentators like Srikant and his funny team with their foolish comments) collectively involved in biggest blunder of the Indian cricketing history, just to win a match against Bermuda and loose two matches against Bangla and SL.
None of the cricketers had performed their minimum responsibilities and still want to continue in the team and it is only Coach who resigned if not he might have been fired. How many times Indians will excuse these cricketers again and again for their underperformance of their basic responsibilities.
Just check for stats each of team which reached semifinals (http://www.itsmylinks.com/uscricket.html?gclid=CMjOsP3woosCFTIeGAodSxhZkw) Every team has 6 players who scored more than 150 runs and 4 players who had scored more than 320 runs and 6 bowlers of each teams took more than 6 wickets and 4 bowlers of each team had taken more than 12 wickets each. This clearly indicates the specific roles given to batsman and bowlers of these teams are being performed 90 to 100 % without fail. Where does so called India Batsman and bowlers stand. None of them have performed more than 50% of the allotted roles. But still are angry and starts giving personal Statements to press and wanted to create impression that they haven%u2019t done anything wrong.
They are being trained motivated paid salary hyped and mostly prayed to all different GODs in India by 100 crore mad fans just to win one game and loose two games.
Buch of fools and jokers will be sitting again on April 20 to select 15 fools if not jokers who are so called cricketers of India for a Bangla tour. Lets see how many underperformers will still get a chance to be selected which will reflect how blind the selection committee is.

The Board President sud b changed.No more excuses. If he wants to survive then he has to deliver. No more recomendations. Y dont they think of a good Bowling coach? No more Sachin/Sehwag. All r fed up in waiting for their turn n they didn't n never turn. Its really shame tht on BCCI as it can't select 11 extra ordinary players from 100 crore pupil. Only way is just drop the present team. Thtis the gift we give them. No matter who he is and wat he is. Wat do u say guys?

I totally agree with you vamsi. All that preparation for nothing. You will see, next tournament against Bangladesh, On a flat pitch Sachin/shewag/dravid/saurav will make centuries and thats it.. they become gods again. All these stupid media/selectors/fans will be praising them.
We have to understand on flat pitches where there is no swing/bounce/pace any player will make runs. Look at the way Ricky plays.. amazing, I think he is the best player that we have around now. He is so consistent. We have to learn from what Aus do, they are ruthless, if you dont perform you are dropped. Simple as that. They dropped Bevan!! He was the best finisher.
Sehwag plays good ones in 2 - 3 years, sachin clicks on flat pitches now-a-days even that we dont see, saurav clicks when bowlers are not targeting his rib cage and its is flat pitch... We have to have sense and stop supporting these players and support some other team like SL, NZ, SA or Aus.. they play for their country, their pride, they are proud to represent their country. Our cricketers all they care about is money money money. What really irritated me is Captain after coming back to india .. doesnt talk about what should be done to improve indian cricket.. he talks about endorsement. Comeon!!! how ridiculous is that.. and how stupid can we be supporting these type of losers.
I was a die-hard fan of sachin,dravid.. these are just bunch of losers playing for money thats all. None of these cricketers really care about fans.. fans who giveup everything to watch these guys play, How many of you stayed up late to watch these losers lose.. how many of you guys made advance bookings to watch them live, how many of you bought packages to watch them on tv..how many of you did other sacrifices for these losers.. does it really matter to them. I dont think so.. end of the day they say "waw!! this tournament we made so much money, when is the next ad shooting".
Its just sickening. Its never ending story.. Till all these stupid endorsements and other things stop.. Our cricketers wont improve. I can challenge.. India winning WC is just a dream.. other teams are going ahead, we seem to be going back!!! There is not gonna be any major change in selection, same old losers will be back on the team, same old thing will keep happening.
