lol
They did fall short by a lot the first two games but I don't think there's any need to hit the panic button just yet. The current crop are a good mix of reasonably young seniors in their 30s (Ashwin, 35, and Rohit at 34 are probably the oldest?) Lots of youngsters are also being blooded, Shubman Gill, Shaw, Venky Iyer and Umran Malik etc
Away test series against top sides is the real benchmark for how good a country plays cricket, and yes, there are 'white ball specialists' these days but the core group of top guys play all formats.. Kohli, R Sharma, Rahul , Bumrah, Pant.. these guys retained the test trophy against Aus, in Aus.. for the second straight time.. doesn't get any bigger than that, your wazir e azm saab also acknowledged it the first time... and then they played brilliantly very recently in England.
The GABBA test was won by basically our B (bench) team, bigger than any silly limited overs world cups can get, bigger cricketing achievement than 83 and 2011
and the one at Lords, dear lord.. 2 events that shook the time space continuum of the cricketing universe this year. Man, James Anderson just held that failed forward pose forever after Siraj knocked his stumps.. rongtai khade kar dene waali wins !

Main point being that.. Indian cricket, despite their poor showing in the 2 most important matches in this 20 cup, is generally in very good health overall.
No nationalism or anything here, just love cricket.. and am actually more excited about the Ashes than the New Zealand tour of India.
Kashmir gaya tel lene, I want out countries relations to improve so we can play a proper game of cricket.. gend laal, kapdey safaid.. 4 slips, 2 gully, fwd short leg.. SS Afridi vs Sharma and Kohli.. usme hai asli mazaa !
Who is being a "sore loser" or doing any RR here ?Do whatever you want to with your team win whatever test series you want to. Just stop the randi rona now. Its pretty annoying.
Crying about test matches now but before Indo-Pak clash every Indian journalist and fans were on the moon. Now suddenly they love test cricket and Sunil gavaskar thinks IPL is bigger than World T20. Joke of a Nation, really.
Stop being a sore loser. Or well just carry on with your rants.
This bit of your post suggests you are delusional. India is not the best cricketing nation. In 20/20 cricket - you have been beaten twice and eliminated - in the other group - England Australia and South Africa would be teams India would struggle. To suggest you are the best in the world is certainly delusional. I do t think India are a bad side - what I don’t like about the team is the arrogance - the exaggeration and the Laiser faire attitude they have of being the best - when clearly they are notbut India are still the best cricketing nation
but India are still the best cricketing nation

but agar koi seriously in do mulkon ki 'all time greats' ki team banain to
Sarfaraz and Kapil Dev as swing
Waqar and Wasim as pace and swing
Qadir/Saqlain/Mushtaq and Bedi/Harbhajan/Kumble as spin options
Sunil Gavaskar, Zaheer Abbas, Tendulkar and Saeed Anway ki zaroorat hi nahi hogi : )
20 to theek hai, pop cricket (and I'd say this even if India had won this one)
aap zara Australia, England etc mein test series jeet ke dikhao
real glory is Akhtar knocking Tendulkar and Dravid with consecutive inswinging/dipping yorkers at 150+, in India, at the Eden Garden, with 1.5 lakh pajeets in attendance watching it live
lol
lolAndho ke haath bater nahi lagne wali .
forget about imaginary team making ,
australia is bringing return ticket for one team , you can guess
lol
but maan-na padega.. acchi performane rahi hai ab tak Pk team ki... unke laundon mein hunger hai !
dum hai to WACA/GABBA/Lords etc pe test match jeet ke dikhao na but
i don't mind if India is zero in 20 but winning test series overseas
