We are individually heroes and collectively zeroes. That is why we dont have much gold medals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are underperforming in Hockey, football etc <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But we were a cricketing Super Power. Now that position is threatened , as New Zealand’ master strategy clicked and humiliated India 3.0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have to make some corrective measures. We have reports that some players are not playing in Ranji Trophy, but in IPL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This tendency should be discouraged. We should implement the principle that those who do not play in Ranji Trophy should not be selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 1975, India beat WI in Wi. One of the biggest upsets ever. But that was against a declining WI side, Declining in age.Gary Sobers was around 39.. So were many other players. Gary Sobers stared at disbelief at Wadekar , who asked him to follow on<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So 4 seniors are on their way out, due to age. Four youngsters should emerge as world class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NATURE & NURTURE <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have abundance of talent. we can field 3 world class teams simultaneously. Somebody opined that India is so experienced that they may lose to India A !<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cricket experts should help BCCi to nurture the immense talent available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
CURRENT FORM IS ALL THAT MATTERS<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no meaning in stating that he has scored 200s or 300s five years long. What is his current form !<\/p>\n\n\n\n
