back to square one!

yeh kya ho raha hai !!

this loss must ve reminded dravid of the bad 'ol days ! when he used to b d sole anchor n other big hitters used to get out to leave him with a fifty for a losing cause...

yet again the ppl at d top faltered and d ppl lower down d order had to suffer...tho karthik still came up trumps...remaining not out till d end...

a run out to start with n with gambir as tentative as ever...d pressure was always on dravid n tendlya to perform n score at almost a run a ball to keep hopes of winning alive

tendlya as usual disappointed...n dravid tried but could not get much support from d other end...so it was left to karthik n d others to try n give a fight..which unfortunately they cud not n in d end lost by a huge margin of over 100 runs...

this sets a bad tone for d rest of the series n i feel recovering frm here is nt goin to b all tht easy..but wht the hell..good teams r able to turn tides in their favour n i believe we have one gud team in the makin..lest we can get rid of d stars n get in some performers..its high time d board decided to switch to youngsters..
may b the twenty20 may throw up a few..

am not sayin we will def do well with youngsters but we have seen wht experience has got us.....they have d fear of failure lingerin so hard in their minds tht they cannot see victory at any place n if not got rid of them soon this feeling might sink in with the youngsters too n we wud b the windies..

its time to bid adieu to the likes of tendulkar, ganguly, dravid, n kumble n time to breed in some new talent..
they wud need time to groom n blossom..

now is the best time...!!!!
