Benefits of playing as a team...

Indian cricket has improved a lot over the last three years.
Before that Indian cricket was all about Sachin Tendulkar.
Of course,he is Great.He is the most famous Indian Internationally.But remembering all these and considering the fact that cricket is a team Game,should this much individual attention needed?
Every one knows that an Individual cannot win a game for his team himself.
India is considering sachin as a god and expecting too much from him.
This will add pressure on him and demoralise other players.
This was the reason why India was failing when sachin got out early.
But with the arrival of players like dhoni,team play got the deserved attention and has improved to such an extend that we won the twenty-20 world cup.
With all respect for Tendulkar I should say that he was playing for records,not only him.
When he reached 90 he was always going slowly despite team's need.
Comparing India and Australia for two batsmen
Indian-100,5,7,8,9,2,2,100,4,9...
he cements his place with those two hundreds and team looses on all other occasions.
Australian-67,75,89,64,43,4,5.
its full stop for him after that 4 and 5 and a good player comes in and they are under so much pressure to perform.
Thats why sachin holds many records,and Australians not.
But with the arrival of DHONI as captain,there has been change in the right direction.
Old stalwarts have been thrown away .
One thing to be noted that there is not much centuries now,but the team is winning.Even sachin is not scoring centuries but contributing.
As Dhoni said.."Its not the centuries that are needed,but an Innings that can make a difference."
Indian cricket TEAM is safe under his head.
