Cricketing rollercoaster

The Middle of the tour has always been some sort of a honeymoon for the Indian cricket team.
They truly believe that the sweetest part of any fruit is in the middle.
The initial part of the tour is always one of apprehension.A lot of doubts and aspersions are cast on them.Questions are also raised regarding their commitment,fitness and form.
Truly,baptism by fire for the team.

As the tour progresses,the Indian team finds itself in a commanding position mostly by winning the test or salvaging a draw.The same media who until then trashed every move of the players starts singing paeans about their heroics and sacrifice.The best moments of every match are shown repeatedly along with the latest Hindi songs.Marketing gets a whole meaning.The media in its eagerness, could milk a cow until it loses its udder!!!!!!

Now with the fruit almost over,so are team India's chances.Looks like they are following some kind of dogma by losing the decider and ultimately settling for a tame draw or a humiliating defeat.the media goes GA GA all over again and the players go into hiding for sometime.
I HOPE all this changes when India meets England in the penultimate match.
Hope is what i would stick to because in case they lose they are HOPE-less!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
