What I want to ADD (as all of you are more or less correct about your views) is that lack of research
quite right. i would like to add that i seriously doubt if the players do any homework "on their own" about opposition players. Like- do they check the web, study the videos like it should be done or for that matter exercise some individual initiative to enhance their skills?

From my observation it seems that the majority of them still need to be spoon fed by our "foreign" coaches. And i suspect that the players from England, Australia and New Zealand are far more creative in employing new methods and training to focus on weaknesses.

Having said that, all this debate is focused on a secondary issue. The main problem is that we lack a quality domestic competition where the players can play good cricket away from the international spotlight.
