And both teams won't win anything going by the way things are going.

 

This happened earlier too in the late 90's when they sent 2 odi teams. One to the sahara cup in Canada vs Pakistan and another to the Asian or commonwealth games. Both teams lost miserably.

BCCI has completely shifted focus to IPL. With ICC giving them complete window for 2.5 months next year on and the cash they are getting why will BCCI care anymore about international cricket. We are going to lose more now than win.

Ya government had put pressure to send strong team in commonwealth because cricket was added first time. Sachin and Ajay Jadeja were sent there. And they deliberately played badly.

 

More recently we had a test team in England and a B team which played in SL.

KL - Rohit - Kohli - Sky - Pant - DK- HP -Jadeja - Bumrah - Chahal - Bhuvi. 

 

This could be the final playing 11 in the upcoming Asia Cup & WT20. Its amazing to see that we have around 30 World class players who can represent us But sad at the same time that we have to bench such great talent.
