First of all my opinion is that the indian players does not play upto their calibers the reasons are
1.The players dont enjoy and play the cricket ,rather they enjoy modelling and always play cricket with some pressure.
2.Souvrav ganguly being a opener and a senior batsmen have not used the power plays effectively.He showed immense passivity , a defensive approach,and a fera of playing shots in the power plays and just pulls back the cricket as they would play in 1993s or 1994s where a score of 220 would do the job for them.But in the recent scenario even 437 is not enough.
3.All the players where not playing as a team but played for their individual positions.
4.India never had world class bowlers in their life time.Poor bowling by zaheer,Agarkar,and munaf led to the team’s demise.
5.Fear ,Fear and Fear …..thats the only thing which led india down .Throw Ganguly ,out he shows some negative signs in batting causing a fear to the Up coming batsmen and he was responsible for breaking the momentum.(I espcially say ganguly because see his recent 10 games he has good scores but see how many balls he has taken)
6. Poor fielding done dy Munaf ,Bajji andEven Yuvraj(Sad to say)
7.Poor running between the wickets(They run as if they play VETERAN’S CRICKET)
Solution:
1. Bring some fear less youths to play.
2. Increase limited (50 overs and 20 overs)over games in first class and county crickets in indiaand selection should be based on that(for one days) I say this because selections now are based on RANJI which is on test match basis.
3.Improvise the some pitches to foriegn standards which could be some bowling pitches too.
4.We dont want patient ganguly,sachin, dravid who are concerned with Individual performances.we ant the persons those who can score for the country.
5.Analyse the defeats thats the only way to improve

thats right
They are not fit to play only interested in money and money

First with bangladesh - Sachin would have played more odi than whole bangladesh team added together. Sewang and others - no need to mention.

Against Bermuda - Scored more than 400. Bermuda is worse than a decent college team in India

With Srilanka - Srilanka played professionally which we never see with Indian team

Finally - 1) It is better for sachin to retire
2) scrap entire team. Take some new fellows and teach them - will be a good asset in few years time
3) As citizens of Indian we do not want cricket gods - want some decent players

ALL THE PLAYERS WHO FLOPPED JUST NEED TO PERFORM WELL AGAINST SOME MINNOWS TO RETAIN THEIR PLACES FOR THE NEXT 20 MATCHES.
WE INDIANS WILL FORGIVE THEM. AFTER ALL ISN’T COMPASSION WHAT GANDHIJI PREACHED TO US?
