Team India disappoints fans by losing npower Test series – Cricket News Update
The fans of Team India, at home and abroad, are highly disillusioned and mournful over the nerve-crushing and heart-wrenching defeat of the team in the 4-match npower Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013.
However, they differ on the causes that have pushed the Indians from top to bottom in no time. Some blame the team’s new coach, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Duncan-Andrew-Gwynne-Fletcher-c54742, and some think overconfidence is responsible for this demise.
The Men in Blue have mislaid the world No 1 Test rank after losing three Test matches to the Poms in a row.
England have outplayed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 in all three departments and the Indian rock-stars have failed to avert ignominy. The 3rd Test at Edbaston, Nottingham was the most shameful event in the history of India cricket as the visitors lost the game by an
innings and 242 runs. Earlier, they were beaten by the hosts in the 1st and 2nd Tests with huge margins of 196 and 319 runs respectively.
Now, India, which rose to power and prominence after winning the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Cricket World Cup 2011 at the home ground, has fallen in the deep ditch of condescension.
On the other hand, the English have succeeded to materialize their long-cherished dream of gaining the top slot in International Test rankings.
Team India’s failure has badly heartened the feelings of their fans, who consider cricket as a religion.
Talking to the media, Aakash Singh, an ardent lover of the team, said, “I am very disappointed that world`s number one Test cricket team lost by 3-0. The team was not (performing) well and our coach is not very serious about the series, we have to change
our coach. Being a Mumbaikar, we have to change our coach. Basically, the batsmen were not doing well, so they have to work hard in the batting line-up and we have to do well in the last match."
Another fan, Sohan, said, “See, the Indian Cricket team is over confident. In fact, it has been India`s weakness to play on fast pitches.”
Fletcher, who succeeded http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gary-Kirsten-c58527 after the World Cup, is a subject of severe criticism as the fans think that he has not prepared the team according to the requirements of the English wickets.
