India played great cricket throughout the world cup.But we must not forget that we had lot of good luck on our side like getting first chance to bat in last 4 matches.Remember we lost to NZ when chasing.Also the final over in the finals could have gone anyway. We should not overreact.let us not place our boys on a high pedestal one day & bring them back to earth on another day.let us not put undue pressure on these guys.Let them enjoy their game.Only then will we get such results 3 cheers to INDIA!

VERY CORRECT "LUCKY" THIS HABIT OF OUR CONTRYMEN SPOILS OUR CRICKETERS. SEE WHAT THE SIMILAR ATTITUDE IS DOING IN PAKISTAN. CERTAINLY THE TEAM HAS DONE EXCELLENT JOB, AFTER PLAYING THE ENGLISH TOUR(SOME WERE THERE THROUGHT THAT SERIES, INCLUDING THE CAPTAIN). PEOPLE SHOULD STOP THE HABIT OF TAKING THE CRICKETERS ON THEIR HEAD, OTHERWISE, NEXT TIME, ON FAILURE OF THE CRICKETERS, THE SAME PEOPLE WILL BURN THEIR IMAGES, STONE HOUSE. TAKING CRICKET SO MADLY, IS ALSO CREATING THE BAD THINGS LIKE MATCH-FIXING. SO I APPEAL TO OUR COUNTRY-MEN TO STOP OVER-REACTING, ONLY NOT TO CRY OR GO BERSERK. WE ARE VERY MUCH VIOLENCE-PRONE.
