It hardly matters whether India reaches the Super 8s or not.The objective should be to reach the semi finals first.The way the Indians have been playing over the years it doesn't seem that we can ever think about the whole picture.After playing cricket for almost 80 years and since we have been world champions before in 1983,anything less than a semi final berth is a complete failure.So the focus should be on reaching there .Every match is a must win match and thats how the Aussies approach their game and they aim at winning every event they participate in.Till the semis you have all the info.on the teams that you have to face,the venues,the weather conditions etc.The world cup becomes a lot more unique after the Super 8s since its difficult to anticipate who will be making it to the semis and the strategies need a quick change.We can never hide from the fact that we have been a bunch of highly overrated cricketers.The last big win was a Champions trophy win and that too a shared one with Sri Lanka bcoz of rains.With just one major win in the last 20 years or so.,there cannot be a better example of a highly exaggerated bunch of individuals,they are hardly mentioned as a team.So if they dont go through to the Super 8s,it will be very much in line with their achievments of the recent past.They are not really that good a team to be in the semis,even though if the ICC and its team of sponsors may think otherwise.So if they are game enough ,they will up their performances a few notches and they will be staying back,else lets not waste our time and resources cheering a team that has always been a bunch of loosers.Seventeen finals in a row against major teams,all lost.Do I need to add anything more ?????.........
