Hello to all cricket fans.Recently kapil dev gives the comment that "Ballers are servant(he used hindi word "majdur" for servant) and batsmen are officers" in indian cricket when one press reporter asked him "why BCCI has made very batting friendly wicket?".I think it is truth about Indian cricket.Kapil dev also added that in India everybody wants to become Sachin tendulkar,nobody wants to become Anil kumble.We should really change this mentality to build a perfect team.What you think guys?

I think he does have a point there. But it is not only India, but all the sub continent pitches. Also the rules of T20 and 50 over cricket are so heavily stacked in the favor of batsmen that it is very difficult for the bowlers. Things like power plays and mandatory ball change all work in favor of the batsman. What was the last rule change in favor of a bowler in the ODIs!! Cheers! Ram

So true.I think ICC should do some ammendments in favuor of ballers also so that cricket will have any sachin tendulkar from balling side also.
