Black Friday for the Indian Cricket Team

Indian Cricket Team has fallen short of its glory after losing matches against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Now as we all know they may be out of the World Cup but yet there is a possibility for them to still be in the world cup if Bermuda wins the next match against Bangladesh. Yes it looks impossible but it’s a game that can change at any point of time.

As it is said that India has already lost their game so we should not only blame a single player for it but the whole team. I feel that the enthusiasm to win their final match to reach the super 8 was totally missing that brought the downfall for India. But the Indians were over expecting from the cricket team which made them wild and angry, we should watch the game as entertainment and not as we Indians usually do. There may be many difficulties the Cricket Team might have faced during the game while charging the score of 255 runs. The wrong decision was to field first and then bat after winning the toss.
 

Comments:
Failure of our star cricketers have greatly disappointed the cricket lovers and why not, a large amount of money is spent on this game and on each players. Today this game has become a place to be millionaire. Has BCCI any provision of payment to players based on their performance? It is very easy to say that the cricket is a game of uncertainty. If it is true then why the payment is certain. Till now no great players like Sachin, Sehwag, Dravid, Ganguli ... have opened their mouth on the punishment or on their retirement plan to open the gate for the younger. From news, all appears to be crorepatis. Good sense must prevail on them on not to wait for action by BCCI or general public. Every one including coach, now seem to be finding excuses and India's name has gone to earth in the eyes of the world. - T S P Sinha, Jamshedpur - Mar. 28, 2007

ns a cricket fan I don't understand the term "High Expectations". I expected the Indian Team to win against Bangladesh. Is this high expectation? I expected them to go to Super Eight. Is this high expectation. If Indian Team can't fulfill these expectations then I am sorry, non-performers have no right to be in the team... be it Tendulkar or Sehwag or Dhoni. - Shabab Sham - Mar. 29, 2007
