Changes in Indian cricket

http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/indi...ry/289280.html

Well, I must say I am a bit surprised. This is a step in the right direction, though I don't know about some of the coaches.

Keeping Dravid as captain is a good move

Yup very pleased with the actions the BCCI is taking, it seems they are serious this time. And Robin Singh has vowed to improve fielding standards supposedly.

And me being the optimist I am, I believe these changes will really revolutionize Indian cricket and we'll not only be one of the most fittest, and better fielding sides, we'll also be one of the most professional and athletic sides in world cricket, in times to come.

Before every tour, all the contracted players have to undergo a fitness test and only those who fulfill the benchmarks will be considered for selection.

I like this one.

What's the reasoning behind players not being able to write newspaper columns anymore?

Seems a bit harsh to me.

shastri as the coach i am willing to wait out and see what happens, prasad i have grave doubts about, he was more or less a mediocre medium pacer, not sure why dravid recommended him other than the fact that he is from the same state, robin singh was a brilliant fielder and could teach these sloths a thing or two....anyway some of the other changes are long overdue and very welcome at this stage of indian cricket, hopefully all these don't take too long to implement because of the weight of bureaucracy....
