What is the Indian cricket missing ?
I am an avid cricket fan, and right now a disappointed Indian cricket fan.
After 2 losses & a potential exit from the World cup, its easy to find faults with the Indian cricket team. A lot of people are doing so 24X7, but to me most of their "analysis" seems shallow, just like out cricket board president's statements - "we need youngsters". If the ( Read more... )

Certainly this week will always be remembered in the history of Cricket and in the minds of Indian Cricket Fans. May the soul of Bob Wolmer rest in piece in the heaven.
Well now coming to the matter regarding the debacle of Indian Cricket team.
Well I think everyone will agree that Indian team has some good players or the potential to be good players. But that couldn't prevent the defeat in the matches. If so then it's time to think as to what went wrong? Media is extensively covering this episode and boosting it's TRP. I noticed the comments of Swami Ramdeo. As per him,"there should be some guidelines frrom the Sports Ministry regarding the advertisements in which players advocate the products of MNCs which everybody knows are detrimental to the health of common peaple, children in particular. While doing so they put aside Indian Values and Cultures."They are quite pertinent.
Well let us apply the "principle of succesive exclusion." Let me explain it a bit first.Well suppose in a given time an activity P changes to Q and in between a, b, and c events takes. As per the principle, one of these events or their combination will be responsible for the change.Now we will repeat the above activity with all the combination of events and note down the result. SUrely one of the combination will lead to the change from P to Q. Thus we can find the culprit.
Well I guess many don't know what the hell it is and many would reject it summarily. Problem in India is that "Science is confined to books and examinations. We don't apply it in our day to day life."
Let us take the case of M.S. Dhoni, being the recent benificiary and victim of corporate world and it's advertisements. Few months back he was firing from the front. And suddenly all that fire and fury turned into performance with lack of confidence and full of doubt. Well so what happend in between. Well we can guess few things like ads , modelings , lots of endorsements , lots of money etc. etc. Few other things will there, that only he himself can tell.
But there are a lot of peaple who follow this phenomena and interestingly meet the same fate. So we can say with some confident that ads and endorsements make player irresponsible. Well I also agree with it but I think we are not going to the crux of the matter.
I think all of us will aagree that no player himself want to perform badly. But still they have not done well enough. Let us find out what happens during the ads. Well players put lots of makeup ,color their hairs ,give them stylish look etc. etc. But cricket is mind game. Reaction time required is very small. And since Dhoni has done well earlier but not able to do now compels me to conclude that it happend due to coloring his hairs.
So all you guys Please tell Dhoni and the rest of players to not to color their hairs. Also there is no need to do so. It hmpers their(it applies to anybody who does so) reaction time .Well life of sportsperson demand to practice ascetcism, simplicity, ideals and resolve to stick with them.
What say you?????????
