India will reach in super 8...!
by Ian Chappel on Mar 20, 2007 08:38 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Mates..
India will reach in super 8..
Reasons:
1- SL will beat BD by a big margin so that BD's NRR goes down so much in minus that they shouln't even dreamt of beating Barmuda by any margin, In short last game of group will be just of a statistical importance and nothing else..
2- If SL beat BD by just a smaller margin and India beat SL, SL will be in big trouble if BD manages to beat Bermuda even by 200 runs or 7 wickets...
3- So, SL left with only and only one option which is beat BD by a big margin and dont let the thing go beyound your reach. SL will never want to take risk against furious Indian team..!
4- After that India can beat SL by playing proper cricket without having tension of NRR.

INDIA is in Super 8...Yu..hu
Anyone with different openion...

Hey Mate, Great statistics, and good to see you around!

I have been having a ball of a time playing with the Indians, here! Some have been tying to hang me, or tear my hair off, due to my comments and opinions, which rubs some - like sandpaper across their face.

Anyway, as usual, I concentrate on my Australian Beers, which continually give me the Cheers,

AL in Australia

We believe in India's win or not, but we r with Indian team.Aussies may have the most chances to win this but we still support India.Dropping India and picking Aussies shows ur sick mentality.Go there they will have u as their pet.Thats what they r going to do with u.Thats what ur worth is in their mind.Whatever u may think of them....

if srilanka wins by a huge margin and plans to knock out Bangladesh, and India wins against Sri Lanka, then Sri Lanka will go into the Super 8 with 0 points and India with 2 points.

So the way Sri Lanka can take 2 points is by letting Bangladesh get into the Super 8. So If Sri Lanka just beat Bangladesh, then Bangladesh has a chance to go to the super 8 by beating bermuda big. Sri Lanka already has NRR 4.5, India has just 2.5. So in that case, India will have to win and win big, to have their NRR be higher than Sri Lanka. Otherwise, Sri Lanka will go in with 2 points. That is what they will want.
