Cricket matters should be taken in its own stride. Ups and down are always there in cricket. It would be unfair to blame one players when most of the players could not perform well. The team manager need to analyse the performance during Australian tour, ascertain the shortcomings of each player and take some remedial measures to improve performance. Revival of the team through positive actions is the only answer rather than picking up one or two players and make them scape goats.

No one can be blamed individually for the debacle of team India in Australia. It is a collective failure and barring Virat Kohli and Sachin Tendulkar to some extent, all our batsmen failed miserably to adjust to the bouncy pitches of Australia. Even though Laxman and Dravid failed completely in the entire series, no one can forget the service they have done for India in the last 10-15 years. The famous Kolkatha test and Adelaide test, both of which India won, are the solid examples of their class. If there are any players to be blamed, they are captain M.S. Dhoni, Virender Sehwag and Gautham Gambhir, because they never miss IPL in any case, but when it comes to the question of serving the Indian team, they don't show as much interest.
