 Mumbai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
International cricket is widely watched, and the city almost comes to a standstill on days when the Indian cricket team plays important matches.
The local Mumbai cricket team is one of the strongest domestic teams that compete in the national Ranji Trophy, the nation's top domestic cricketing event.
Hockey, India's national sport, has gone into a sharp decline in the recent years, losing out in terms of popularity to cricket, though many players who make up the national team are from Mumbai.

The Indian cricket team is a national cricket team representing India.
Though there has always been no dearth of talent in the Indian team, and many Indian cricketers have been acknowledged and respected the world over, the Indians have had trouble performing well overseas.

In spite of the fact that at least three Indian corporate behemoths cried off because of the "sponsorship overpricing", Sahara accepted the BCCI deal to ensure that the national team was sponsored by an Indian brand.
Ever since ITC backed out from sponsoring the Indian cricket team following a cabinet decision, which proposed slapping a ban on sponsorships by tobacco companies, the cricket team was left high and dry without a suitor.
Henceforth, the team will be called Sahara Indian Cricket Team.

 Indian Cricket Should Wake Up to Realities
Whenever the entire nation condemned them for their successive miserable performances, the Indian cricket team used to come up with some outstanding triumph.
A national team is certainly not a club team where captaincy has an effective impact on the development of the team.
Should Indian cricket reach such an enviable status, it is high time the administrators, sponsors, former players and the media sat together and charted out a fool proof master plan for India's domestic cricket.
