Man's greatness is not in never falling but rising every-time he falls

Indian Cricket - Comes a full circle


No, it is not the loss per se or the margin of infliction of that pain that hurts - it is the clueless doubt that how could Indian team display such collective ineptitude, that makes me look like an idiot googling for answers

The very purpose of calling foreign teams to play here is to defeat them on extremely home-friendly conditions and then push our claim to the top spot in world rankings. Now even that strategy appears to be under threat. 

It is ok. Victory and Defeat are two sides of the same coin. Just that sometimes it would appear the indian coin has Defeat and More Defeat as the two sides. Let us not lose our focus of building a strong team for the future and move on

Sacking the captain, wicket keeper, bowler, batsman, twelfth man, manager, physio... will not really help. Either we stop playing the game or just accept this in our stride and move on.

My only worry is if we keep losing with all the seniors in the playing eleven, then how on earth are we going to teach our youngsters the values of remaining a loser and losing team!! 

Without wanting to be singularly critical, i would assume Dhoni has brought india back to where it was when he took over ;)
