more Alex In india no one dares to tell the truth. Why india sucks in sports in general?. Simple. 70% of indian public living in poverty. Ration food. No one have money to over eat. Every one worry about saving , school education. Body comes second unless you are in a rich family.
Two things india need most.

Keep crying people. I really think india should be divivded in sports atleast. Slowly slowy they should divide india like russian federation.

India is too big to control to be best. You can''t be democratic in sports.

Harmandeep Singh This has been our problem our team doesn''t have any genuine fast bowler. We only have medium pacers in our team. We just need to find someone only to bowl quick like the Aussies did with Brett lee and r doing with Shaun Tait.

Thanks for bringing up this topic

Hari This is really true..it is unbelievable that there is not even one person who can bowl faster than shoaib akthar in millions of indians!!even I have seen some village bowlers whos balls lightening fast when we used to play tennis ball cricket!!they should search and find 50 people who can bowl faster any where from any village.is it possible for a poor village sportsman to come into international arena in india?never.cricket has become a rich man game only in india, not in pakistan and other countries.that is the basic reason.how many pakistani sportsman can compete with indian javeline throwers and shot put throwers?so when it comes to cricket ball indians become weeker?india should ban fast bowlers who bowls less than 140 km/hour from any domestic matches and atleast 135km/hour in youth level ( Posted: Tuesday , July 17, 2007 at 11:45 )

Alex I do believe after education reservation , india needs to implement reservation in crciket team. especially fastbowlers spot should goes to Tall DALIT kids. You will immediately see fast bowlers. How come suddenly?. Simple. Indian upper caste society is blocking physically talented people from playing.

Just like during pre 1950s they blocked education for all other lower caste saying they don''t have "brain" to study...oh well..

India as a country lots to learn from western world...admitting the mistake..is the first step...temples are the root cause of the division in india. Caste pilices still there because of these temples.

I really think india will change after pakistan nukes india. Yes that is going to happen sooner or later (may be in 20 years ?)...

What india need is chinese style GOVT. India can only envy china until it fixes its internal problem or just dive india and be hell with it. ( Posted: Tuesday , July 17, 2007 at 09:29 )       
Alex In India Fastbowling means 130-135 kmph. Once they called munaf as next brett lee. Then they said VRV singh is faster than akthar. what a crock!.

Indians who gets selected are generally weaker and also it is about extreme fitness and diet and training about how to maintain at the high level.

Eating rice and dal won''t cut it. Simple as that!.

Also i really think BCCI people are stupidest!.

They should give bonus for fast bowling. Average top 30 high speed ball and average it. if you bowl 140+ then there is 5% bonus. if you bowl 145+ then 10% bonus. if you bowl 150+ then 50% bonus.

Then all pathans to Munaf will start to work on their physical condition. MONEY! MONEY! that is the only motivation!.

Also india should look for dalit people to play , they have better gene than brahmin boy!.
