India's early exit from WC 2007

Well, first of all, I pay my condolences to the great INDIAN players who could not make it to the finals...errrrrrrrr.....sorry...to the Super Eight round of the WC 2007.

Well I guess we were unlucky to have Bangladesh in our group..(I dont know..all of a sudden these B-grade players changed there grades and defeated us. I feel ICC had a setting with them...Or they must have taken steroids...or some kind of drug since all of them used to go mad after taking a wicket...dancing all around and punching up in the air...now if you wanna punch at least punch in the right direction).

I have a question that is killing me...Does India perform good in WC after being defeated in a tournament just before the world cup commences???(This happened in WC 2003. But in this WC..we played extra-ordinary in the previous tournaments)

I can understand that INDIANS are human beings(Yes they are) and they are bound to make mistakes. Cricket is a game after all...(I believed Till Bob Woolmer was killed...) Sometimes the players are bound to perform badly and sometimes they shall be the Best. I dont understand why can't we take our defeat in a normal way rather than behaving like a child.

The media and the BCCI(Baramati Cricket Council of India) , I guess are going to make this sport a dirty and a non-promising sport. The media is just bothered about there publicity than anything else....
The BCCI is running around praising that Australian(Good for nothing coach). It has still retained him for some king of job(I guess Chappy is interested in MANDIRA BEDI and has bribed the BCCI for retaining him).... And the media on other hand is busy searching for some bad conduct of the Cricketers.The recent news about Sachin Tendulkar( The GOD is synonym for this Batsman/Bowler/Fielder) cutting the Cake with Indian tri-colour on it. Now the case should be filed against the person who did the icing on this cake....not the one who did the obvious thing of cutting the cake....

Now to add to this drama, the selectors are planning to take some freshers in the team....Are they gone mad? Is cricket like IT industry where in a fresher can do much better work than a 17 year experienced one...I feel it is more of show-off than anything else..They just wanna show some concern about the things happening...

There are more things to add... "Sachin should retire...Sachin no longer GOD of cricket...Sachin send the notice...". Now a question of retiring I guess should be an individual's decision. And specifically in case of the GOD...he has a lot to give to the world of cricket.. Not performing in two matches does not mean he is doomed... He is the MASTER BLASTER and shall remain one...
There is no doubt in his excellence... I doubt whether any one can break the record of his centuries in ODI... The DAY Sachin retires I bet more than half of the population of the world shall loose there interest in Cricket.

Habibul Bashar's comment on India and Pakistan not fit to be in Super Eight shows of his ignorance ..... Simply by performing good in a few matches does not mean they are superior. Let him experience th defeat in the forth coming series.

Well I personally wanna give a message to the INDIAN team...take this defeat in a positive manner than a negative one..and give your Best when you enter the ground next time...
Best of luck against the Bangladesh series... Hope that you reach the finals.....oops..I guess since there are only 2 teams you shall surely reach the finals.
