Indian fans for some moment should stop watching cricket. India lost to arch rivals Pakistan and thus lose the series. Sehwag Gambhir Yuvraj are nothing but nuts and they should some how be sacked. Cricketer remains in India team on their yesteryear performances.

Though India is under-performing in International cricket, I think it's a bad idea to blame specific players. Though we know they should have performed, we also should understand that it's wrong to expect things to go as we imagine. Moreover, No player would want to under-perform purposely. I think the team lacks moral strength right now. They need to be trained to be calm and be focused. Basically we need a good mentor like Sachin!

I think the current coach is also to be blamed partially. And I do not understand the fixation with foreign coaches. Why not have an Indian coach- someone like Anil Kumble, or may be Rahul Dravid?

Yes, I have stopped watching the cricket of Indian team. When Sachin retired I decided not to watch, because then itself I knew that these all things are going to happen. I should say that Indian cricket team is in its black phase after the retirement of Ganguly,Dravid,Laxman and Sachin. It's very difficult to find a replacement for these guys. In my opinion selectors should have given chance to the youngsters while they were in the team on a rotational basis. So that the youngsters will get the correct guidance and also a good experience. But everyone was urging for the retirement of these legends. Now team India has to suffer a lot. If they could realize and understand from these failures then I would say it's well and better.

Well, Indian team has seen lows in the past also. In 1999-2000, Indian team was in a similar situation after losing out in super-six of the World cup 1999, then a 0-3 defeat and bad performance in tri-series in Australia, and then a home defeat against South Africa(test series). Teams do go through a cyclical low phase, and then transition to better times. So, we should not hurriedly conclude everything.

To some extent you are right, but at that time old players were sacked down and new players like Ganguly Dravid Sehwag Laxman join the team which were full of enthusiam. Now again India wants new players but that is not happening. Indian batting line up is same for the last 3-4 years. No new players are given chances. Sharma Jadeja Gambhir Sehwag Raina Yuvraj are always seen. When will new players apart from these will be inducted in Indian team. Sehwag Gambhir and especially Yuvraj are nearly pathetic and they are not going to improve much in coming days as well.

Well, players like Ajinkya Rahane, Bhuvanesh Kumar, and some more batsmen are now likely to be getting more chances. It is upto them to utilize these chances and make their position solid in the team. Else, they may see more competition.

Hi anilhclites
Yeah i agree with you Indian team members remain in the team with past performances to most of the extent and in this some part of Dhoni is also there .Talking about Gambhir , Shewag and Yuvraj they totally failed this time i think it's time for Indian selectors to reshuffle by giving rest to Gambhir,Shewag and Rhoit replace them with Robin,Rayudu and Rahane .
