Answer 2

Individually they are really talented mainly in batting and to some extent in bowling.But compared to other teams they lack athleticism and sharpness in the field and running between the wickets.This leads them to yield some extra runs while bowling and short by about 10% of runs while batting.
To that extent they have to raise their game 10 to 15% more than what others have to do.This reduces their success rate.
Unless they overcome the lethargy in the field they are more likely to fall short of targets more often.
They succeed only when more people click at the same time or when a few play extraordinary cricket.

In previous world cup there was a great team spirit but in this world cup there is a lack of team spirit. no one player is enthusiastic all are just playing and their face reflecting no any positive sign, It is true that Indian team has potentiality but they r using their potentiality for advertisement
If we think about dhoni he really did nothing Indian people had lot of expectation with dhoni but all in vain. actually he is earning money by advertisement that is why he is not so much conscious about his game which fame him a lot.
there is only one solution to get rid of this tension there must be some agreement regarding this that no one would be permitted for advertisement . if any one breech the agreement either he get punishment or kicked out.

India and Pakistan were the British colonies before and the Cricket is also British game. Now the trend is changing both countries are diverting towards USA, so by last visit of GWBush to the area, both countries are changing the mind of their public towards Baseball, a game played in USA.
It is all higher level politics.

They just seem so uninvolved inthe game,but,there is still a chance
lets c what happens in the BER v BAN game....
but somewhere deep in your heart you know its all over.
And don't u think even we have been wrong somewhere,
rather than sending 15 cricketers we sent 15 brand ambassadors

Answer 6

Because players like Sachin and Sehwag failed repeatedly.
Indian team selection was not proper.
Players not having good performance records since last one or two years were selected in the team with the hope that they will click some time!!!Those who were most deserving, were kept out of the team.
In such situation what can you expect?

Answer 7

Now they r playing only for their personal life, money and advertisement, For fame, but not for game i.e. cricket

Answer 8

they are not cricketers they are theifs according to me they not bother about indians they love only money they are bookies and the two matches was fixed.

Answer 9

Because of players like Tendulkar and Sehwag.
They are good on paper.They are past of India now, should retire and allow some young and deserving one in.
