If you have noticed the media reports recently regarding India's overseas tours and Shastri and Co. 'insensible' remarks about their performances, you could have seen Sourav Ganguly confronting them every time. The way things are being handled by Shastri and Co., it seems they are undermining the power of our legends. Tendulkar has always been a gentleman and kept mum even in the strangest of situations. Can't expect anything of note from Dravid and Laxman, so it has to be Sourav to become the voice of opposition. He could even become unpopular in the process but true fans of the game would know who is being right. CoA in a way hasn't helped Indian Cricket and BCCI don't even care what's going on 'in-the-field'. After such a meltdown (like England), they would either call upon New Zealand or Windies to come and rescue India's domestic calendar. If they are the best travelling team in the world, they must know what they have done in those travels could only pass as an infamous 'Shastri rhetoric' which at the end of the day, doesn't sound meaningful at all. It's all delusion and being delusional wouldn't benefit Indian Cricket.

Well who am I to comment on such an indefinable ‘qualitative’ perspective? I’m one of you, those wretched creatures that are still in need of true, great friendships. Well I certainly can’t say that I haven’t got friends. I’ve got friends, plenty of them in fact, and some of them are real great. I s...
