Australia crush India by 298 runs to complete 4-0 whitewash. Why Team India test temperament is at low ebb is moot point.
Senior players failed to show the defensive game of cricket,lacked maturity to stay at site and failed to deliver on fast tracks which needs quick reflexes.Practice and fitness is key mantra to which senior players needs to play more test games thus building their games and none of the senior players wants to have rest is matter of concern.Bench strength of team India needs to be tested with regular induction but the cartel makes the strategy hard to bend. Sachin Tendulkar God of Cricket failed to present his 100th international century and is without a century for 25 Test and one-day innings media reports his last hundred was in the World Cup last March. Team India big names famous for their batting standards in game of cricket are reduced to paper tigers in the test format of games and selectors needs to reinvent his team or he should too exit for the sake of the game.

Srikant said in one of the seminar,We started the game of 1983 world cup just to enjoy the foreign trip and were never serious about win but it was Skipper Kapil Dev who kept on pursuing that we can win the world cup.Srikant the selector needs to think that team India can retain the number one status is games administrators are serious on the subject and donot look for only spin of money. India batsmen with rich experience lacked patience to stay at crease and were cheaply bowled by the Oz bowlers with their penetrative bowling.
India slumped to their second successive overseas series whitewash after losing the fourth and final Test against Australia by a humiliating 298 runs in Adelaide on Saturday. Chasing 500 for a win, India were bundled out for 201 runs in 69.4 overs in their second innings. Australia won the Test series 4-0 after having scored comprehensive wins in the previous three games. India, thus, suffered their eighth straight overseas defeat after having whitewashed 0-4 in England last year. Resuming at 166 for six, the Indians lasted almost an hour and 13-odd overs during, which they added 35 runs before being bowled out for 201, handing Australia a clean sweep in the series. The sight of Indian tailenders prompted Australian captain Michael Clarke to start the proceedings with his faster bowlers and they responded to his skipper’s call by removing the two overnight batsmen Ishant Sharma (2) and Wriddhiman Saha (3) in the first three overs of the day. Ishant was the first to depart, poking at a Ryan Harris delivery, which wicketkeeper Brad Haddin had no problem in pouncing. Next over, Saha followed suit in identical fashion, caught by Haddin off Peter Siddle. Zaheer, unlike his previous innings in the series, seemed determined to spent time at the crease rather than flashing at every delivery. He batted for 18 balls, from which he scored 15 runs with the help of four boundaries before Ben Hilfenhaus sent him packing. Zaheer lobbed a simple catch to David Warner in the covers while trying to pull a short delivery off Hilfenhaus. Umesh Yadav was the last wicket to fall, handing Haddin his third catch of the morning off Nathan Lyon’s bowling. Ravichandran Ashwin remained unbeaten for India on 15, which came off 31 balls. Off-spinner Lyon turned out to be the best bowler for Australia, finishing with impressive figures of four for 63, while Harris picked up three wickets for 41 runs.
