1. I think india requires sympathy and has to be encouraged. if we dont suppot them the who will do in the whole wide world
2. serious critisism
   why
   if not,
   they again play irresponsible cricket over & overe man
   this is the national cricket team.
   not your street cricket team buddy
   you dont have to be so sentimental about tit
3. yeah.they need encouragement.
4. My friend I think the reason why indian cricket team performs badly is b'coz we give them too many things,at times sympathy and at times critisicm.So the best thing to do today is to do nothing and let the boys do their jobs.
5. the media had made a lot of fuss about it and I think they need a lot of encouragement so they need sympathy
6. No , Sympathy at this moment
7. I think they themselves are hurt and disappointed a lot ....they have got enough of criticism...It is time for us to look forward for the upcoming matches....let us all support them because they need their mental strength back...it is useless to still criticise them which would put them in big trouble...let us stop to feel pity for them and give full support for our team...

8. what Indian team needs today is a little bit of sympathy & most of all they need peace, & they need to practice well for the upcoming bangladesh tour.So, no violence like many people do in India-burning players pictures etc. are to be avoided.
9. Nothing...Please ignore them for 1 year and they would be OK.
10. Do you still think that they deserve sympathy? Even serious criticism will not make any changes. This is Indian cricket.
    
    Come on India!!!
11. They way they played they need serious sympathy. :-)
12. I totally agree with u.they are after all human beings.they also have nerves and brain.they should be encouraged for what they have done for the upliftment of indian cricket.some sympathy may work wonders for them
13. It does not need any sympathy at all; because the failure against minnows like Bangladesh can not be excused or pardoned by any cricket loving fan. It was the result of sheer arrogance and over-confidence by the Indian team, while it was a systematic onslaught by the Bangladeshis.
    The criticism by the media only echoes the high expectations by the whole of India on the men in blue. Had they come to the super-8 stage and lost against some better opposition like Australia or New zealand, the criticism would not definitely have been like the present one.
    It is high time the Indian team is injected new blood by taking in new talent and bidding adieu to hapless seniors like Ganguly, Sachin, Dravid and Sehwag ! Such a stern action will be a lesson for all the future players !!!
14. good question
    what indian cricket needs today is not sympathy or criticism, what it needs is enpowerment of its internal cricketing structure.
    
    all indian cricketrs have low mental power to handle pressure & level of international cricket. What happened in WC might have happened somewhere else, but it was must to happen bcoz our problems would at last effect us at some point or other.
    What we need is to send our "india-A" team again n again to world tours, give respect to upcoming line of young cricketers, train them on fast pitches (which can be made easily on our hill stations), make them to handle fierce pressure of international level & finally transform them into mature cricketers when they appear at the international levels.
    
    But I know that all this will never happen in our country, & even we all indians (better hippocrates) will soon forget this WC tragedy & return to our routine trends & even one victory of india on its home pitches will clear off all our sorrows. Then we all will forget about our country's bad cricketing structure which will definitely lead to furthermore future defeats.
    
    But still there is a small hope that something might will happen good & that only hope is directing me to write all this.
15. They don't need sympathy but yes we should help them come out of this bad patch by taking some harsh decisions as well as right counselling.
16. neither sympathy nor criticism
    
    we have to encourage to build team spirit with in the team so that they can do miracles
17. they need some comfort after their exit from WC. but we, Indian fans, are criticizing them like they lost to their ultimate match, and there's no way to go back to those glorious days. we really need to change this attitude and let them change themselves.
18. What the Indian team needs right now is serious backing.It is the pressure to perform at the big stage that let them down.If you are a true Indian fan ,support them even in crisis
19. critism
