Well lots and lots have been said about the performance. About dropping the complete team, coach, etc. etc. etc. First things first: Let us face it, we as Indians did not have the right kind of preparation. The pitches in India are tailor made for batting. Whenever we go out we struggle. It is a mircale that some of our cricketers actually have performed well overseas - Sunil Gavaskar, Tendulkar, Dravid, Lakshman, Ganguly to name a few. First the pitches should be sportive and bouncy. Then I think we should develop the cricketers both physicallya and mentally. It is very disappointing to see such a performance in the World Cup, even though it is just another tournament. It is not important who is there in the team, but it is the mindset. We are afraid of loosing and therefore try to play over cautiously. So we are neither here nor there. We should continue with the team. After all it is the same team which won a record 18 matches chasing. So come on India, play well and forget the fear of loosing. Nobody complains if you fight hard and loose. The perception is that you are taking it to easy. But as players I think your disappointment is much much more than all the fans. We as fans have our own problems and tend to forget with the sports/cricket victories. Some of us react violently. We as a nation are behind you. You should also put in a honest and dedicated effort each time you go to the ground. And improve every time. Let us start the process of rebuilding.
