we have a chance to qualify for super 8. if all of the following conditions are satisfied without fail.
Ind has -0.14 pts Ind vs Bermuda - Ind should win by big margin (like by 150 runs or by 8 wkts with 10 overs remaining) 2.94 - 0.14 = 2.8 (sample) Ind va Srilanka - Ind should win by average margin (but narrow margin would be risky) 2.8 1.5 = 4.3 (sample)
Bangladesh has 0.14 pts Ban vs Srilanka- Sri should win by average margin (no need for big margin) -1.0 0.14 = -0.86 (sample) Ban vs Bermuda - Ban wins by narrow margine (average margine is also safe or Bermuda wins -- wont happen) - needs 5.2 in this game to beat indias 4.3 ie 5.1- 0.86 = 4.34
As per my preciction india has still a chance to qualify for super 8. But Srilanka should defeat bangladesh else our players can start packing their things......

Do you really think that India deserves to be in super 8 the way we played against Bangladesh? Get up guys we were never a world class team ....it would be foolishness to expect India win the worldcup
