cricket and india

I was hardcore cricket fan at a certain point of time but the Indian match fixing scandal has changed that. It was so easy for the culprits to get away with murder and now these same players come on Indian news channels (who really stink) as experts and give there uneducated opinions. What have they achieved in there playing career than individual records. As Indians we tend to live with our past glories; we only have won one world cup and that too in the 80’s. Indian media and creative people really don’t have bright ideas so they keep on promoting Indian cricket (example Pepsi ad) and keep the whole jargon running. We see every other kid playing cricket on the street but are not able to produce a world beating team why? Is it because of our system or is it because players like sachin & co who want to keep on playing so they can make few extra bucks. In physics we were taught moment of inertia a property of a body to remain motion less till an external force is applied. It’s the same case with our system maybe it is in cricket or politics so let’s give a big push and move the system.
