What is happening to the Indian Cricket Team?

The whole cricketing world and anyone who follows cricket even in a little most manner, would not be unknown to the recent mishaps that have happened to the Indian Cricket Team. Once, it was in England, and now, the ghosts haunted them against Australia as well. India lost all of their recent 8 Test Matches abroad. And that too in great humiliating ways.

But, what is the reason to it? Earlier in England, it was said that the injuries plaguing the team, and too much of cricket during those months, was the reason. Accepted. But, what about now? What happened in Australia?
As with all the things that underwent Down Under, there is a small doubt that the problems plaguing Team India are psychological rather than technical.

None of the top players, were performing as was expected of them. The reasons, not yet found out. The Australians were not supposed to be such a strong team as their earlier versions, but still Team India faltered.

And strangely the top official of the board still says that they can still beat any team in the world. That was surprising, weird and ridiculous!

It's high time that we figured out a way to get over this. Because, the experienced players are in the twilight of their career, and there is still a long time, until we have an Away Test series. So that must be ample time to figure out a future team. Selectors, take notice!

Congratulations to Sachin!

And after a wait of 369 days, the day has finally come! March 16, 2012 will go down in the history books as the day when the Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar reached the almost unrepeatable milestone of 100 International Centuries in the Game of Cricket. This particular century had garnered a lot of attention, especially since it was the 100th one. And also because it took such a long time. Possibly the most Sachin has taken between centuries before. But as we say, all good things come with a wait, Sachin also had to sweat it out for 33 innings and then came this much-awaited century. It hasn't been easy for him at all, it's not that you by-default get a 100 if you reach a particular point. He had to strive for each and every run, even for the single after the 99. That's how the game is. Just merely because he is an expert in the game, doesn't make his work easy. It just makes others to consider it as easy for him. For him, each and every match, each and every inn...

Vicious Circle of Survival of the Fittest

It's one of the famous theories existing in the world. The one part of the evolutionary theory proposed by Charles Darwin, which we all have learnt in school - "Survival of the fittest". Along the years of human evolution, the above said principle has seen to be followed by us as a species. And it is very evident in other species as well. The strong and the healthy ones, survive the competition and progress further in time. The ones who are weak, perish and the cycle repeats for numerous number of times. It might have been repeating for millions of years! Once one-sided, but it returns back! When we reflect on our society, we see the very repercussions of this theory in it. People have been evolving as civilizations along many years, and there have been remarkable changes in our societies as well. But as we should see two sides of everything, there are two sections of people, one which is very well off in their lives, and another section which is not at all so. P...

elections in d country..

Kerala and various other states of d country went to the vote on the 16th of April as part of the Phase-I of the elections in the country. And this time it is going to be really competitive. coz this time people want change. people r more aware of things. they are not going to fall for those old promises and vote. they r definitely changed. this is the scenario not at all places, but same places atleast. so this time its been different from olden times. so the political parties had to work really hard this time to gather votes for them. But after all, thinking generally, elections must be the process of electing proper officials to power and not just political parites. it must b an exercise that leads to the shaping of the country. And interesting thing is, u can always recollect all the negative aspects of the different political parties in the country at the time of elections. They all pin point mistakes of each others. So u surely get to know more. I am feeling sad that I couldn...
