New Indian team

As I am writing this India is thrashing SL for their 4th consecutive victory and 9th in a row. Somehow this new India which arose from worst worldcup defeat seems very confident, ruthless and fighting. Something good to watch during the depressed times. Mahendra Singh Dhoni who was considered as a hardhitter when he first participated in the pakistan tour is playing totally different role as captain with his focus more on rotating the strikes and keeping the innings alive. Either of openers are playing pretty good and there is always some one supporting the previous efforts. No bowler is world number one, but they all bowl for the ultimate goal. Looks like a strong bonded team. Something similar to my work place. Everyone is thirsty of success, each one helps in others success.
Couple of weeks back I saw an interview of TamilNadu cricketers on Coffee with Anu in Star Vijay. What I saw was a different picture there. Even though the pool consisted of speciality batsmen, speciality bowlers and all rounders none of Jelled together. For a given question, no body seemed to be approving or even listening to other's answers, shocking. For whatever sake, guys next when you come on a 30 minutes enjoy the moment and serve the purpose the interview rather than trying to win the show. if you server the purpose you will win it as what those folks in the ultimate place do. Look at Sachin, i have never seen him smile and be so jovial like this..
