I can't believe that this Indian cricket team was No. 1, in world test cricket.
Lacklustre (and thats putting it mildly) performances away from home are the undoing of this team, & i have to say i thought that that was a thing of the past, but obviously not, i personally think that the hiring of Fletcher & the woeful team performances are no coincidence, Fletcher the only thing he ever got right for England was winning the ashes, a lot of the English supporters still think he is kak as a coach, we'd have been better off with Kirsten still at the helm.
There is absolutely no pride or aggression involved with this indian side, & they are letting supporters down massively, imo get rid of Fletcher cos he's just a liability & get someone like Warne to coach the side !
NO AGGRESSION,NO PRIDE, NO NOTHING

Dolly imo, & i have watched India albeit on t.v , but there is definitely a different body language from the team, i was surprised when the indian selectors or whoever went for fletcher..i don't rate him, never have, never will...& yeah get rid before we really start to wilt...

Well as i say i have never rated him so fair play, i just think like any coach he needs time to make his mark on the team. But either way what a coach to have to follow in the foot steps of, Kirsten !

It was always going to be 4:0, long before this series started. It's our time.

you can't blame fletcher, he doesn't write the fixture list. it is the BCCIs fault, they have ground their players to exaustion.

I can believe the Indians were number 1, the whole time they were number 1 they never played away against decent opposition, then the play SA then Eng away and lose their top spot. I don't think this is coincidence, they were never truly the best side.

Fletcher does not have control of this team, no coach does. It's the bcci and their selectors. He just has to get as much out of whatever players he is presented with.

you cant blame the coach, it is the BCCI and the captain that you should be pointing your fingers at

India don't need to point fingers or blame anybody. They are playing the best cricket team on the planet, on their home ground, and are inferior in every single position on the pitch and were always going to lose 4:0. It was always going to happen.
