USELESS COMPARISON
by Dazzler on Sep 25, 2007 08:43 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

stop comparing 1983 world cup win with this win.
That is incomparable.
1983 we beat the invincible team which had stalwarts right from no 1 to no 11.
Here we have beaten pak which consists of only few class players.
There the competition was intense. here it is slam bang song.
So keep that separate and this separate.
Iam not saying this is not an achievement, so dont jump about without any sense.
I would like response only from fans who witnessed 1983 match as a matured fan and not from guys who were born later, since they may not understand or realise the potential of the likes of Sir Viv, Marshall, Clive Lloyd, greenidge, Holding, Roberts and garner etc.

This world cup is no way less worthy than 1983. Here we played against full team Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, England. And every team fought according to their merit and we own this world cup due to our great team spirit.
