India defeat in cricket due to solar eclipse! Is it Solar or something else?

I was in Air, traveling from India to US while team India was sinking in the world cup and as soon as I landed, I connected to web and saw the news of India defeated by Bangladesh. Once at home, to know some more details about the match, tuned to Zee News with which I share a love hate relationship. I hate it because it is worth hating and I love it because I have no other choice! So here comes the news where the intellectual looking news reader called some astrologer and tried to relate India's defeat with the solar eclipse which is being observed in India right now। I immediately switched off the channel after hearing the silly talk and started narrating to myself-Is it really solar or something else? No doubt that cricket in India is under eclipse but this eclipse is much more dangerous than the solar eclipse and unlike the solar eclipse which lasts momentarily, this eclipse is since years and doesn't seem to be going away in near future. Let us find out what kind of eclipse is this and what is causing this eclipse. First and foremost one common root cause of all illness-Politics। No doubt that Politics hasn't spared cricket since ages. We have seen game of politics in our country and we have also seen politics of game at the same time. The game starts from BCCI which is famous for it's political appointments. Who doesn't know about fight for BCCI presidency every now and then! Currently the power of BCCI is Mr Pawar (so rhyming , isn't it?) and what at least I know about Mr Pawar that I haven't seen any step so far from him which could do any good to cricket in India. In the past, there had been power struggles to grab the chair of the board and whoever won, the loser was Indian cricket. We will never be able to get out of this eclipse until the board is the set of non political people selected by non political people only- Another thing which has been setting eclipse has been personal interest of players. Be it match fixing and losing matches, players becoming brand endorsers and ignoring cricket, players chasing their own fifties and centuries and resulting match to a draw, Rahul Dravid blindly favoring Sahwag for selection in the world cup team- all these cases, Indian cricket only has lost. But, after all this, do you know who is the biggest cause of eclipse on Indian Cricket? It is the public-Us, Indian Janata who set very high expectations for the team-who makes Tendulkar GOD when he plays well and throws stones at Kaif's house when he plays bad. Fortunately, I was in India when the world cup started. Gosh! So much is being done to help India win-Organizing Hawan, Prayers, People creating song CDs, signature campaign to wish the team etc. Even Bollywood this time is also ahead in the race. Couple of movies releases recently are cricket based and they have been released at the right time seeing the emotions of the "janata". All these set very high expectations for the team and make them heroes even before they perform. Getting so much even without performing, our players don't even try to perform. Let us first get rid of these Rahus and Ketus who exist among us and cause eclipse on the Indian cricket. Once we are matured enough to reward/punish the players based on the performance and throw these political bugs out of Indian cricket, we will find Solar and Lunar eclipses will automatically doing good for the Indian cricket.
