Indian Cricket Team - The New Zealand test series

I am an avid armchair sports fan. I do play a  lot of games, but as far as a full days entertainment goes,nothing to beat cricket. It can be thrilling, throughout the match as you expect something to happen with every ball being bowled. The crazy run finish, trying to limit scoring, the alert fielding all add to the excitement. Needless to say, that I am a big fan of the Indian cricket team and go through despair when they perform the way they do, especially against "seemingly" weak teams like New Zealand. I dont care, I want our team to win at all cost as I am addicted to the feeling of well being that comes along with it. I could never figure out, why the Indian cricket teams performance was so inconsistent.

Recently I came across an article " http://hubpages.com/hub/Cricket-Winning-and-the-Indian-Cricket-Team" that got me thinking. I started analysing the teams performance and actually the article started making sense. After all, Its all about the money, honey and TRP's and pulling in the fans. Suddenly everything seemed to be clear..Well, atleast now I dont despair with every loss as I know that the team shall be back with a bang and I am quite hopeful that the team shall win the third test match against New Zealand.
