Future of Indian Cricket
by Saurabh Saxena on Mar 26, 2007 11:36 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

I donot understand why we hype our cricket team so much. I heard an ex Indian player who said that we can never be as good a team as Austraila. We can win matches here & there but cannot continue the winnning streak long. I totally agree with him.



After the WC debacle, many heads are bound to roll. First one seems to be of Guru Greg Chappell followed by Dravid. Last night I heard that BCCI is planning to make Sachin the new captain of Indian team.. What a waste!!! I think it is high time that he reconsiders his career & seriously contemplate RETIREMENT..He should look at his counterparts like Lara & Jaysuriya. They r not burden to team but still an assets. I think Sachin has become a burden on Indian Team & we should loose some dead weight.



Only hope for Indian team is to bring new guys with an Indian coach like Sandeep Patil & give these guys some time to build a team with target WC 2011

i wish i could have read the messages which have been falgged as abuse. i can just smile thinking what they might be.

on a serious note : indian team sucks. watch how south africa gave australia a fight, that cricket. indian would have fallen for under 1000 runs had they been chasing australia's 377.

The God re-incarnated is only a burden & liability for the team. How many more world cups does BCCI want him to participate in. I think soon he will hold the world record for being a player who has participated maximum times in the world cup. If Tendulkar is not ready to retire gracefully ... kindly just sack him.....

who ever may be coach of india india will play like this.india need to follow australian theory who is playing good keep him in team and who is not playing keep him out.Dravid is still the best player in indian team but he is a leader of jokers. even Ponting cant lead indian team to WC win

Sandeep, U r talking like a joker. It seems u r also a Dravid supporter. People like U r also somehow responsible for today the HIGHS Indian tema has reached from the last World Cup (hope U remember). So better U go and check your brain, so that U can see and analyse what is going on, and give your suggestions unbiasedly.
