Here's the living proof of continued mediocrity in India and this time Indian cricket. Pawar has the power to silence sanity and good voices. What a politician can do is what we all have been seeing over the past 60 years. A great shame that India has no men of stature, personality, selfless dedication to run and take the country to greater glory. How dare does pawar say that Indian team is under tremendous pressure and if he and the Indian team didn't know it when they came to the public domain in India, it beilies my average understadning. None in the board and the people who are connected to running Indian cricket seem to know the sports science and psychology to prepare 15 men from a roughly a 300 million young Indian men who have the potential to play the game and have the guts to play an event like world cup to take on the best team. How will they get time when they are busy chasing their personal glory. There is no sense of shame left in any one administering the game. Get politics out of the game and take objective decisions even it's starting from scratch. The current approach, no different from that effigy buring and arsoning thugs in India. Chairman of selection committee can't speak a sentence in english but wants to head the decision affecting the emotions of a billion people. Please wake up and throw this ignominy from Indian sport and more so Indain cricket. Let's fight for the infusion of a sense of medernity and purpose in how we administer sports in the country, so that the world will stand up and applaud India.

well said except the the yardstick u have put for the post of selection committee chairman as only 4-5 % of the Indians are English speaking and not billions.
