by Srinivasa on September 29, 2011

Though the title may sound cliche and may be discussed everywhere within the cricketing fraternity these days, the topic is very relevant from the point of view of the champions league that is currently in progress.

When a good team such as India lose thier games so badly time and again , it makes one wonder if they will ever even once on this tour ?.  Honestly rather than feeling down and spiteful about the loss, I was really enjoying England play.  Obviously this team is a great English side which [...]
