Australia's Domination Ends

Australia's domination over cricket is on the verge of ending.In the last Decade we have seen the success story of australia .From world cup to champions trophy it won every tournament in which it played.It remained the Number one test and oneday team until recently.From 2001 till 2010 it remained the number one team in the world . The team made several records such as winning 16 match on the trot under the captaincy  of the great steve waugh. Australia have won the 2003 and 2007 cricket world cup without loosing a single match forget about loosing no one was able to challenge them .Its domination over the world cricket was possible only because of its players like Ricky Ponting,Adam Gilchrist,Matthew Hayden,Justin Langer,Shane Warne,Glen Mcgrath etc.
The player mentioned above are the greats of the game they could trun the game at there will.Players like Gilchrist and Hayden in one day hayden and langer in test most of the time gave australia a strong start they could demolish any attack in the world .Players Like Ponting,Martin played there part in the team who can forget the amazing patnership between these two at the final of world cup 2003 against india.Players like warne and mcgrath could rip apart any attack.
But things have changed with the retirement of these player australia is not able bring new players who culd fill the shoes of these players.That is the main reason for the poor perfomance of the team in the recent past.
Now cricket Australia should look forward and nurture new talent so that they can fill the vaccum which has been created by the retitrment of the players.

Naxalism:An Eye Opener

Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh On April 21 2010 said that "Naxalism is the gravest inetrnal security threat to the nation ".This indeed is true because in the year 2009 133 people were Killed by the Militants in J&K whereas during the same period a whopping 908 people were killed by the Naxals.Until March 2010 30 people were killed in J&k by the militants during the same period 132 people were killed by the naxals.The comparision dosen't mean that militancy is not a problem now. It just goes on to show that the work which was earlier being done by the militants ie to kill innocent civilians is now being done by the naxals or the maoist. Another significant thing is the geographical reach of naxalism as compare to militancy. In india militancy is confined to the state of j&k only on the other hand as of 2009 naxalites were active across approximately 220 district in 20 ststes of india accounting for about 40 percent of India's geographical area. They are Especially cincentrated in an area known as the ''RED CORRIDER".India'sResearch and Analysis Wing believed in 2006 that 20000 naxals were involved in growing insurgency.
Earlier all the naxalites groups were engaged in guerrilla war.But with time some of the naxalite groups have become legal organisations participating in parliamentary elections, such as the communist party of india(Marxist-Lennist).Others such as the communist party of india(maoist) are engaged in armed guerrilla struggles

INDIAN CRICKET TEAM THE NEW WORLD CHAMPIONS

Indian cricket team has emerged as the new world champion after the back to back win over australia and new zealand.India showed to world that it can now beat any team in the world wether it is australia england or southafrica. indian team showed that they the have good players who can win matches for them single handledly. the most significant thing about team india is that this team has more than one match winner 5 or 6 years back the whole team relied on sachin if sachin plays well the team will win but if sachin will fail the whole team will fail. but now situation is different indian team have match winners like shewag, gambhir, laxman,dhoni and even harbhajan these player can change the match in indias favour whenever they want.

Another thing about the team is that now it does not rely on the spin bowlers for the wickets and the past few years India has got some of the finest fast bowler it has ever produced. Zaheer, Nehra, Srisanth,Ishant are world class fast bowlers.

There is fierce competition between the players for a spot in the team thig is good sign for indian cricket.The new motto of team India is "Fire or Retire". This shows the spirit of team india.
If the team plays in the same fashion as they are playing now then we can surely say that india is the new power house of cricket.
