Yep, thats the state of the indian team right now
Any indian team supporting fan would have said the same thing.
Now, the question is why is the indian team Self-Destructing after all the hard work done by Saurav ganguly and john wright. Saurav Ganguly must have exploded his brain cells after the captaincy job but people should not forget that the indian team was even worse before Gangulys Captaincy.
I want to keep this review short but fully express my views.
The reason for indian teams failure is negative attitude and uncertainity. they just seem to be totally confused whether to attack or defend. One match they attack if all goes well great, they will carry on with this strategy. If not, they will defend themselves to death, just watch the last Test match of India-Pak Series u will get a good example then.
Why in the hell are the indian batsmen blocking like fools and then getting out like fools.
It seems that they are Scared of failure, after so much experience of playing International ODIs they still dont know that if u block, defend and choke u will get out eventually.
Just ask Mr.Saurav Ganguly, I mean Ganguly has scored so much runs in ODIs Why? bcz he used to hit fours and sixes in the first fifteen overs and then when he reaches a score of 30+ he went into a Zone and it was very hard to get him out.
Ganguly is totally useless at defending unlike Rahul dravid, who is Solid as a Rock!!!
Any indian fan knows that Ganguly will block, block, block and nick the ball to the wicket-keeper or slips, and at no 4 theres not much scope for attacking bcz of the field restrictions bcz of that Poor gangulys career is almost destroyedand also bcz of one man Sachin Tendulkar.
What in the hell is Sachin Doing? instead of giving the team a good blitzkreig Starthe is eating most of the balls and putting all the pressure on Sehwag and Poor Sehwag also loses his wicket.
Now there is a Jinx whenever Sachin has opened the Batting india has never won any fiinal. But when Sehwag and Ganguly opened the batting not only did we get a excellent start, but we won two finals in a Row, (the Famous Natwest Series And Champions Trophy). now, Mr.sachin started crying that he wasnt scoring runs and miraculously opened the batting again.
Does this open a can of worms or What?
Now, if a loser like Afridi can smash the indian bowling to all parts of the ground, and make his loser teams position invincible. A batsman of Sachin class and Caliburshould be scoring 100 runs in the first 15 overs and india should dominate.
Instead, he is eating all the balls, putting pressure on sehwag, nullifying Ganguly and the indian team choke themselves to death afterwards.
I just Cannot understand this silly attitude!!! bcz of this attitude we have lostlot of matches which we could have won easily e.g: the asia cup final against SRILANKA where we could not even chase 220 bcz of Sachin who ate most of the balls without scoring adequately.
( to chase 220 at run rate of 6.00 per over is the most funniest thing ever) and sadly, indian fans had the misery of experiencing that.lol
Now, on the last note, Indian cricketers should arrest this fast downslide or
they will fall into a deep ditch and all the hard work done will account for nothing.
And to do that they have to change their silly defensive attitude.
