ICC Cricket awards for the year 2006-2007

No surprise looking at the nominees, there is no one from then Indian men's
team nominated for any of the category in this years cricket awards. For the country boasting to have one of the best pool of cricketers, where cricket is considered a
religion... there are no excuses... Is it a problem with the BCCi or our cricketers approach towards cricket or is its money thats spoiling it... u never know...

Thanks to Jhulan Goswami for flying Indian flag high... I have never really followed womens cricket but really she made me proud...
