Fear

The day Dravid and Tendulkar retire, Indian cricket wont be the same. Evident from how so called young guns have performed.

do you know how many matches it took sachin to score his first 100 in ODIs...?

the problem with today's young guns is not talent and skill but temperament...which i think can be sorted out...

79th match in his 6th year. Its not abt churning out 100s. its abt attitude, its abt hunger and its abt motivation.

the younger lot has got money a bit too soon what the generation of sachin,dravid and kumble got.

that prolly has corrupted the minds of Sharma. he knows he being young wont be thrown out so soon, so this many failures and shockingly same mistakes every match.

there is no dearth of talent in the country and he is not indispensable. once he is thrown out, it would take ages for him to come back.

i remember how dravid started in ODis. Didnt he turn around his game? Gambhir and Veeru are another example. They were dropped, they were in and they were dropped.

look at Rohit sharma. once in in the ODIs, he has never been out of the 14 or 15. He hasnt been given tough message. he has taken his place for granted.

thats the problem. thats where the trouble with this young lot of Raina, Pathan Y and Sharma lies.
