But seriously the amount of T20 they play, there is no excuse for the poor record.Vaibhav Sharmahttp://thecricketwindow.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8280288165385498522.post-64620708867731197672012-02-02T07:42:33.720-08:002012-02-02T07:42:33.720-08:00I think it does not matter what format...The writi...I think it does not matter what format...The writing is on the wall. Representing the country has become optional for players. A second choice. Even the seniors have succumbed to it...These guys know that even if they fail while representing India, they will get contracts with the IPL. Where is the motivation? <br /><br />The World Cup was an exception to this trend but I guess it is natural to get pumped up about a world cup plus it was held in India.<br /><br />Also for T20s that are part of a tour, I think it must become difficult to gel as a team. Not enough time. And the WCs have all taken place after a hectic IPL schedule. That might explain India's poor T20 record.<br /><br />I don't follow English Soccer nor do I follow the IPL but I think Indian cricketers have become like English football players. Clubs/Money will always come first...After that if they have time and energy they will show up for a game for their country and expect to be "respected" for past accomplishments.Golandaazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593900110552569215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8280288165385498522.post-62629986641345768232012-02-02T06:39:42.171-08:002012-02-02T06:39:42.171-08:00I am not supporting the seniors.

I am just stressing on the fact that these juniors despite playing at least 15 T20's a year regularly still cannot take India to victory in this format where other players don't play it as much. I expect these to perform well in T20's given the IPL exposure. I have n't judged them/critized them on test or ODI front. And we have been losing T20's since 2008-09.Vaibhav Sharmahttp://thecricketwindow.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8280288165385498522.post-18092741139329837762012-02-02T03:07:14.092-08:002012-02-02T03:07:14.092-08:00After 8 losses you are still a vehement senior sup...After 8 losses you are still a vehement senior supporter. For the youngsters you give only one game? <br /><br />Also losing is not the issue...its the stubbornness, sameness, refusal to admit something is wrong...etc etc<br /><br />Seniors are holding back the team...once they are gone the next 5 years will be exciting for IndiaGolandaazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593900110552569215noreply@blogger.com
