I dont see any sign of India Improving. I've neva been a fan of the Indian team and never will be one. Infact Im happy that they lost.<BR/><BR/>btw nice blog.<BR/><BR/>Peace & Love<BR/>JeeVYImpressionisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00732915252931492149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643254.post-49856329010983491622007-03-30T10:48:00.000+10:002007-03-30T10:48:00.000+10:00Amen to that!!Amen to that!!Amritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11085959321069455203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643254.post-80789969207796144892007-03-29T12:00:00.000+10:002007-03-29T12:00:00.000+10:00well simply put, yes it is. theres no point trying...well simply put, yes it is. theres no point trying to look 'deeper' into the problem and whatnot...its quite simple. harden up(physically and mentally), get fit, work harder than ever before, dnt take anything for granted. the indian team have totally destroyed the age old cliche "when the going gets tough, the tough get going". now its "when the going gets tough, who cares we're getting paid anyway". Mediocrity should not be tolerated.Vikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14144810745520715567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643254.post-41925937703961298902007-03-29T10:07:00.000+10:002007-03-29T10:07:00.000+10:00Thanks Vik :-)But my point is that on paper atleas...Thanks Vik :-)<BR/>But my point is that on paper atleast Indian batting is the most skilled and the Indian 'team' is the 3-4th in the world! <BR/>So whats happening?! I mean is it just a cry to play as a 'team' and get fit?Amritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11085959321069455203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643254.post-16155127213381006032007-03-28T22:32:00.000+10:002007-03-28T22:32:00.000+10:00btw, the srinath kumble win at chinnaswamy wasn't ...btw, the srinath kumble win at chinnaswamy wasn't a world cup game at all, was just a series against aus i think.<BR/><BR/>the indian cricket team is just not that....they're simply are bunch of individuals thrown together. we cannot imagine to begin comparing them to the aussies or zaffers(or even kiwis to an extent) who are not just cricketers, but are simply better athletes, i mean just look at matthew hayden!! in this day an age, this is more to the game than simply batting fielding and bowling, although it seems that we cannot even get those basics right. we lack the mental fortitude and tenacity to be successful and this means that we will never win any game when it goes down to the wire. just watching the aussie batting against windies yesterday left in me awe. i was then thankful that the indians didn't indeed make it to super 8s; it would have been a ruthless slaughterfest. The crisp and clean hitting, the sharp running...all add up to the fact that aussies have scored over 320 in their last 6 consecutive innings. anyway where was I...oh yes about india. They suck...Vikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14144810745520715567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643254.post-37212150495982847482007-03-28T16:57:00.000+10:002007-03-28T16:57:00.000+10:00Im not sure what the Indian fans would prefer.

But a lack of drive, determination and focus means a lack of trying dont you think?Amritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11085959321069455203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643254.post-82707821465251702632007-03-28T15:11:00.000+10:002007-03-28T15:11:00.000+10:00while i agree that the indians suffered a terrible...while i agree that the indians suffered a terrible loss (one that they thoroughly deserved!)...i wouldnt say it was due to lack of potential.<BR/>if there is one thing they do have, it is potential.<BR/><BR/>the cause of the loss was their lack of drive, determination and focus.'Tis a beautiful life!https://www.blogger.com/profile/04463156519787737640noreply@blogger.com
