Dear Team India
While we are still figuring out the reasons for your seventh
consecutive test defeat overseas, let me express my humble condolences. It's
the time of economic slowdown, why should you be expected to perform otherwise?
There is one more to go, but the media and critics have already written you
off.
Your critics say "Unlike in England, where injuries
mitigated the dejection of defeat slightly, there has been no place to turn to
for comfort in Australia. For the current squad is India's best at the moment;
the critical mass, the great batsmen and the bowling spearhead, hasn't changed
greatly from the team that had success abroad in the previous decade”. I
disagree, haven’t we got likes of Sreesanth and Ravindra Jadega sitting back
home?
I don't believe in ICC test rankings, especially if
countries like Kenya don't feature there. Atleast we are still ahead of
Pakistan. And what's the deal with overseas win anyway? The main thing is none
of you got hurt so far by the seemingly enraged desi fans out there. Virat
Kohli, who promotes "I'm sexy when I'm me " flying machine jeans,
showed what it really means to be oneself. How often do we get to see such
incidents?
I actually respect you for preserving all your strengths for
IPL, where injuries won't matter and centuries won't count. You are just doing
your homework where scoring above 20 is considered pretty okay .I hope you
don't mind the brickbats of Arnab Goswami. You know it's said that a one horned
Rhino gets poached in Kaziranga every time Arnab(pronounced Ornob)Goswami opens
his mouth on television.
Seriously, have fun in Australia. Television rating has
already been slumped, which I hope is great news for you. And if you get lucky,
you might get invited for drinks by the Australian PM. You know, a lot can
happen over alcohol.
Sincerely
A humble fan
