Original Story:
Contrary to selection panel chief Krishnamachari Srikkanth's claim that India play equal amount of cricket with countries like Australia and England, statistics show that Mahendra Singh Dhoni's men were the busiest team in the last one year.
Srikkanth refused to buy the theory that excessive cricket, which has led to fatigue and injury to the players, was the main reason behind India's humiliating series loss against England.
"If you see the Future Tours Programme, all countries are playing cricket 365 days a year whether England or Australia. It is not the Indians only. Cricket is being played the whole year in whatever format - Test, ODI or Twenty20. So I don't think that it is the fatigue factor for the performance in England," the former India captain said.
