India lacks big event temperament-Exit from T-20 World Cup

It is not short pitch balls alone but it is the lack of strong temperament in crunch hours and in big and competitive events which is the short coming of Indian cricket side. I am sure if there is a world cup in test matches our position will be no different from that in T-20 or ODI. Our unduly great obsession with individual records and habit of giving great importance to the individual stats has landed us in this state where we are no better than minnows in all ICC titles. How will you otherwise explain conduct of our cricket god Tendulkar who made himself available for Bangle Desh tour and 35 days long highly strenuous IPL but withdrew from hardly 10 days longT-20 world cup. Answer is -after playing international cricket for 22 years-Tendulkar knows where he would confront friendly bowling attack that will boost his personal aggregates and where his nerves will be put to rest. Is it not strange that the man whom we bracket with Bradman has not given India even a single ICC title in 22 years? Lesson lies in not attaching great importance to individual records.
