First, I thought probably did you not want to give test cricket too much importance. But after that, I thought if they did not want to give test cricket too much importance they would have done that from the start. They have failed in the most important test match of the year. Part is they have failed so miserably but they are still not worried about it. I believe the selection should be controlled by the coaches now. Because the players are basically screwing up the selection process by having power in their hands. They are obviously choosing players by having an influence of favoritism inside them. And of course, the players have to be held accountable for their bad performance.
As a matter of fact, I am not a big fan of test cricket. But still, I would argue that players who are not interested in test cricket should not be a part of the test squad. While watching the WTC final, this was the impression that I got from the Indian players. It seemed as if they are paying just for the sake of it. The aggression and commitment that these same players were showing while participating in the IPL a few weeks ago was suddenly missing when they were playing against Australia at the Oval. In fact they looked quite happy when the match was over.
