Best wishes....

Congratulations  INDIA, we win the under-19 world cup cricket tournament. Seriously i am happy that future of Indian cricket is in safe hands. But i was, thinking, why is it possible for india to perform fantastically well in the under19 team, and have to beg before god for the senior team? For that i mention one thing that india got the world championship title after 28 years in the senior category. Isn’t it somewhat strange. I know  team india has many feathers in its cap, and is considered one of the best team in the world. But we all suffer very often from its inconsistency and uncertainty. All agree! Now i want to mention some differences that exist between both the levels of team. On the one hand, senior team and management is under the hands of much big political  and politically inspired bosses and have unlimited flow of money and perks, on the other hand, the under-19 team is not under that much fanfare. Commercial ads and recently started IPL culture, distort the concentration and level of hard work that is required at  international cricket. Many a times we saw how members of team india escape the practice session for silly things and eagerly enjoy the company of bollywood stars, full of publicity and limelight. May be I am getting too harsh in analyzing their performances, but i am sure that there must be something in it, which really work against INDIA. Or may be if the players just increase the level of sincerity with the spirit of real cricketing than INDIA(considering its potential and huge talent base)could be invincible team in the world . Question is why at the senior level team india do not maintain the level and competence that it show at the junior level? Think about it……
