Lot have been said and written about the ability of indian cricketers on bouncy tracks. This topic has occupied enough space to draw attention and rightly so. There's hardly any doubt about the 'talents' of our heavily earning cricketers, not that I have any qualms about their hefty checks. But this "talented" tag shall trouble them, as much as it is troubling the followers, given the performances in big events. This tag should haunt them and they shall work hard to justify its usage and associated rewards. They have never taken responsibility..they all hide behind the formal leader, and when was the last time we witnessed a leader among the bowlers to lead the pack and bring them out of mediocrity. They don't want to win is not what is being said, but the little extra needed at highest level of international cricket to make it count is certainly missing. Mediocre efforts have no place in such competitive cricket. Dhoni's men have to brace themselves to prove that winning world cup(T20) wasn't a fluke. Hope they come forward and take charge as and when situation demands. They should also keep taking formal or informal inputs from the likes of sachin, dravid and laxman. Ipl has given them much exposure, enough to be well equipped with responsibilities and adjustments. Lets wait and watch what they have to offer in coming matches .Hope no one raises questions on their attitude again post match!!

Very true.. The performance of Indian Youngsters even in IPL is very bad leaving 2-3 exceptions. It sometimes seems a good idea to host IPL outside India.. Atleast guys here will play on livelier pitches..
