191 was not easily chaseable on that wicket after looking at the way India batted.the wicket was difficult. But then we had Rahul Dravid making few blunders:-
1.opening the bowling with Ajit agarkar instead on munaf. 2.Asking Sachin to bowl seam rather then spin.for those who dont know Bangladesh bowled 30 overs of spin...predictable left arm....got 6 wickets.maybe Dravid didnt watch the match when india batted. 3.Munaf and bhajji were putting teh pressure then the smart captain got agarkar back. 4.Sehwag came to bowl when they needed 30 to win. 5.two factors that would haev won the game for india.munaf with new bowl and the spin-bhajji,yuvraj,sachin,sehwag.dravid negated the advantage by using them very poorly. 6.Dravid doesnt look like a confident captain while playing against bangladesh.
THE BOTTOM LINE ...INDIA WONT MAKE IT TO THE SUPER 8....ATLEAST NOT THE WAY DRAVID SHOWED HIS CAPTAINCY SKILLS...IF THEY GET LUCKY THEY ARE NOT GOING ANY FURTHER THEN THE SUPER 8.....
I AM HAPPY FOR DRAVID TO BE THE CAPTAIN AFTER THE WORLD CUP...FOR REST OF HIS LIFE...BUT PLEASE FOR SAKE OF INDIA....GIVE IT TO GANGULY....INDIA NEEDS GANGULY NOW AS A CAPTAIN.

Dravid was the culprit. ganguly and uthappa were the best openers. but dravid, for the sake of sehwag sent him as opener, so that he can score some runs against this bangla desh team. but now he realised that sehwag is not a graeat batsman to get open his account against bermuda too. please drop sehwag for next few games in world cup. give chance to others.or else remove dravid from captaincy. give it to bengal tiger. the team was playing well in his captaincy than this.

Atleast INDIA wont give up that easily...SAURAV LOOKS LIKE SOMONE IN CONTROL THAT RELAXES THE TEAM MEMBERS...ON THE OTHER HAND DRAVID LOOKS LIKE CONFUSED UNDER PRESSURE GIVING WRONG SIGNALS TO HIS OWN TEAM AND THE OPPONENTS...... GANGULY HAS THE RIGHT ATTITUDE TO LEAD INDIA...AND PASS IT ON TO...YUVRAJ...SEHWAG ...ZAHEER...BHAJI...DHONI...PATHAN...UNLIKE DRAVID... DRAVID IS TOO INSECURE....

Ganguly ...What did he do the other day. Facing 120 odd balls and scoring just 60. Atleast He should have taken singles or rotate the strike to ease of the Pressure from the oher partner. He is playing for his self. Cunny Fellow
