Remedies for Indian Team

After wining world cup 2011, some experts claimed that its look like cricket power is transferring from Australia to India. But after winning that single mega event the performance of Indian team is questionable. Though they won test series against West Indies and some ODIs against England but two clear white wash defeats by England and Australia push Indian team to a deep shadow of doubts regarding their performance. Question arises that why the performance of Indian team is below standard outside home? Indian team is enjoying all facilities now-a-days available for the betterment of players. They are the richest players of cricket world but they badly disappointed their fans in recent test matches against Australia and England. Here are some remedies for the betterment of Indian team J

Contracts for Sending Indian Players to Play Abroad

This is now obvious fact that Indian players are not able to play on fast and bouncy wickets. The results of Australian and England series played by India are enough for understanding the problem.  So, there is a need for Indian players to play cricket on bouncy and fast wickets when free from International commitments. BCCI can take steps for the purpose. BCCI can sign contracts with Australia, England and New Zealand to include Indian player to their domestic seasons. It would be better for Indian Cricket that some of their players play abroad instead of playing in IPL.

No Compromise on Performance

This is a fact that every great player has to retired one day. Infact this is the responsibility of players to announce their retirements themselves on right time. Looking at the present Indian squad, retirement of some Indian players is due. These great players have performed for years for India therefore now BCCI should say thank you to these players and should see off them with great respect and honour.  Indian team needs fresh blood like Virat Kohli  for bright future. Cricket is now a very fast game and only young blood can maintain pace with it.  The example of Adam Gill Crest is good enough for BCCI and Indian players. Cricket world watch Adam Gill Crest that how bravely he announced his retirement even when he was better then others. But he provided chance to youngsters for the betterment of his country.  

No Compromise on Discipline

This is the need of the time that every board has a close look on the activities of their players. The case of Pakistani players is good enough for understanding the problem. In near past Indian player Suresh Raina was noted two times accompanied by some suspected bookies. But BCCI overlooked the problem. Raina is a good player but his weaknesses can affect the performance of the whole Indian team. Therefore, BCCI has to say “No compromise on Discipline”. No player is bigger the game. The recent success of Pakistan cricket team in absence of Aamir and Asif against Sri Lanka, England and West Indies invite BCCI to think that only a disciplined team can provide better results.  

BCCI Non-seriousness

In recent days some of senior analysts showed their concerns on the attitude of BCCI in ICC meetings. To some extent these concern are facts.  The focus of BCCI is not on cricket but on increasing its influence on cricket playing nations.  Indian stance on UDRS is funny. All other cricket playing nations are in favour of UDRS with all its advantages and disadvantages but BCCI is totally opposing it. BCCI can demand ICC to take measure for more betterment of UDRS but totally rejecting this system is showing BCCI non-seriousness regarding cricket.  BCCI influence on ICC for removal of Steve Buckner and Darrell Harper encouraged Indian players to think regarding their political and financial power. This encouragement led Indian players to feel themselves more superior then the others and they overlooked the facts that their superiority should only be on the field.
