Whitewash

The debacle of the Indian team in England has caused quite a commotion back home . Why are we shying away from admitting that we lost to a far superior team in all respects? Even had we had no IPL or West Indies tour, we would still have lost because our players were not only old but lacked the will to fight/ somewhere the desire to succeed was missing. Very unfortunate considering that we were coming off a famous World Cu]p victory. As far as the skipper was concerned the article described his captaincy as downright bad. How is it that a Captain lauded for his skills two months ago suddenly turns bad! In fact Dhoni just had this bad series if one considers his track record. Instead of witch hunting the need of the hour is to unearth quality bowlers who can take 30 wickets in test matches and win us games. They should be played alongside youngsters in the series ahead and groomed for the series against the Aussies. I feel Lakshman and Dravid performances notwithstanding have now to make way if Indian Cricket is to do well. Hope the cricket authorities see sense at least after this ‘English’ thrashing, We can only go up as we have already hit the bottom
