One of the greatest blessings of being an Indian cricketer is to have the affection of millions of your countrymen who support the player through thick and thin, the good times and the bad times, the ups and downs. 

Every player who has played for India for some years will vouch for this. Given human nature, there will also be some who may not be fond of a particular player and may also not want him to do well. That’s to be expected too. Then when that player doesn’t do well then those who don’t like him may well try and make a lot of noise questioning his place in the team.
