Its dis-hartening to always find Indian cricket captain blame the bowlers of poor show when batsman have let the team down.
Example: ODI against Oz on 26th Oct 2009 at Vadodara the Aussies were at one point 6/256 whereas Ind were6/190. The difference between 6/256 and 6/190 is the logical victory margin and it is entirely responsible with the Indian batsman who were unable to afford to get 75% of the target.

I could not believe my eyes switching on the TV at around 7 pm yesterday to see India reeling under with 46+/- for 3 with the best 3 batsman of our ODI side back in pavillion. A worst day for the bowlers or can I say (w/o much introspection of the pitch & conditions) that the wildest dream of an indian fan, (losing to bangladesh (Not offending to our Bangla brothers) with "One of the best ODI side" - Sachin said this! so almost gospel!!) was about to be at display at Mirpur yesterday, when the younger elite members MSD n VK took those casting clouds off the scene. Sensible batting display by Raina in the end to not only pull off a win but a piece of my heart too for the Indian middle order batsman.
