its a well written and thought out article but the solution is simple to me.

if the players cannot get their heads around whether they are playing for money or pride then the best way to find out is to drop them from the Test team if they underperform.

Too many of the side have become 'undroppable' - poor old Hoggy must have been really naughty last winter to get dropped after one poor test in NZ and you could never accuse him of being a money-grabber.

If the selectors (or whoever is picking the team on this tour) actually drop a few of the players it might make them (and some they don't drop?) realise that for all the dollars in India, their place in the England team is not guaranteed.

Too many of the current team think they are better than they actually are - the West Indies had to hit rock bottom to work their way back up again and their hunger and pride seems to be there with some fighting spirit and team ethos - oh and a few of them happen to have been made into millionaires as well when they won the Stanford T20 v England so why are we not challenging and questioning their 'Money or Pride'?

Again - the answer is simple - because they are winning on the pitch and this is ultimately what its all about. When you look back at your career the record books will show how many runs, catches and wickets you got, not how many dollars, rupees or euros you earned.
