The other side of the Statistics. India in Bangladesh

Statistics has many faces and I am giving you here one face of stats which exposes tall claims of Rahul Dravid (the Indian Cricket team Captain) and cricket board about the condition of Indian team.

1. The top 3 fast bowlers of country failed to take any wicket in their starting spell.
2. Of the 7 wickets that fell, 4 were taken by part time bowlers which could be considered as a fluke and you can not depend on part timers.
3. India is playing two wicket keepers in team and the better wicketkeeper is playing as a batsman whereas the better batsmen is playing as a wicketkeeper.
4. The top 3 batsmen fell to the opening bowlers of Bangladesh whereas Indian fast bowlers went wicketless.
5. Bangladesh started cautiously and then cut loosed after the initial innings building. Indian started in a hurry and then limped in the middle overs.
6. Dhoni pulled up his hamstring only after spending over an hour on crease (fitness?)
7. Rahul Dravid played 39 balls to score 22 runs and then gets out playing a foolish shot. Sehwag takes 21 to score 31 and played a foolish shot to get out. Well, if you have to play foolish then better play fast. Captain is becoming an useless batsmen and probably a very poor strategist.
8. Mongia loves to come down the track but then he forgets that its international cricket and not the domestic one where you are one of the senior players on the team and can get away with any thing.

Well, match is still in progress and Indian can still limp towards victory as both the wicketkeepers are on the wicket but then probably Indians hate a match without masala. First they let opposition score enough runs and then they make sure that their batsmen should do enough to add spice to it. Well, to get back to audience heart you need to win matches convincingly dear. Gone are the days when people appreciated your antics. Anyways, an ideal tour for India will be to Bermuda because that was the only team they beat in world cup. My take is that Indian team has still a long way to go. And the problem was not with the coach, its with these players only.
