Laurels - team india
by Sanjay on Mar 08, 2008 02:17 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Was it such a big tournament to win that the team is being loaded with appreciation. Is it not a media HYPE? The team is getting so much laurel as if they have won world cup. I agree they performed well for which they appreciation but media is creating such a big hype of it that tomorrow if we lose some matches, media will run after them. We must maintain a balanced approach. They played well, they deserve appreciation but there has to be some limit. It was not a world cup

Dear Sanjay,
For your information this is the 1st time in the our history of @20years we have defeated Aussies on their land. Aussies who are no.1 in cricket and 3times successive world champions. Also they have defeated us in both matches in last world.Its very difficult to defeat Aussie on their land and that too in two successive finals and win the cup. And with that we were having 80% youngsters against a strongest opponent in cricket. Now you should understand why there is so much appreciation.
