Countries were not given enough chance to prove themselves in the group matches(since they got to play only 3 matches against each other), whereas the Super 8's have five matches for each country to add on points(for what good reason?).
also, the format for this time (WC) has taken away the sheen from world cup cricket and turned it into a AD-generating football match series! Cricket in the traditional sense was never played like this before!
it should be either a elimination round leading to semifinals or a full blown world series with countries being given more chance to prove themselves and add on points.
world cup is not really "cricket" but a fun-place to bat and bowl:)
Our team india is a good team but there should be some changes in our team.In our team the senior players like sourav ganguly,sachin tendulkar,rahul dravid Should retire and give chance to young players like ambati rayudu,dinesh kartik etc.,, And dravis should resign the captiancy and yuvaraj singh should be the captain linke this some of the changes are necessary in our team for better perfomance in the next world cup-10 I hope that india will win the next world cup-10

we did the mistake by just blaming the COACH and the PLAYERS. we can also do a think to change the team performance. By boycoating the PRODUCTS in which the crickets sign. AVOID using the the PRODUCTS. In this way the company may kick this players from his product adds. Then the have no work they will play for the country. Now they have shotted lots of ADDS before going for the worldcup. They have earned their Money. So why to play and waste their energy in the ground when they got lots for shooting for a product.
