Amid much celebration in the Indian media on the first anniversary of their team’s World Twenty20 triumph, Daily News and Analysis' Ayaz Memon feels it is time for a reality check, for India’s performances in Test and ODI cricket over the past year have been a mixed bag.
In that context, I find that Indian cricket has not really taken off to the extent the T20 triumph promised. In saying this, I am obviously not referring to the quantum of money made by the BCCI or the phenomenal clout it currently enjoys internationally, but about performance on the field.
