Collapse in the Carribean
by ravi sinha on Mar 23, 2007 02:26 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Well, All are forgetting the major strengths of the Indian Team or lets say TEAM INDIA. What TEAM INDIA is most experienced in.
The answer is the batting line up collapse.
Whenever you expect the most out of them, the line up collapses.
I am sure they will prove me right once again.
TEAM INDIA lovers, (ironically I am one of them) get ready for the Great Collapse in the Carribean by the master Collapsers. Even the great like Sachin or the wall like Dravid frequently contribute to this Collapsing Team Effort.
And every collapse of theirs is better than the previous one.

So, I will stay glued to the TV tonight to watch once again what our boys are best at.

This shows how strong pessimist you are.
Though Team India has batting collapse in recent times, but as an indian fan and a true supporter one should atleast be optimistic and support them rather than mourn on their past failures.
if you feel that we will collapse, then why do you waste your time watching the game, better go and watch some new releases today.

hi sp i respect your opinion but are not you too optimist at the same time. people have always supported Indian team to the hilt, but every time our team let its people and fan down. here not the question of support but the question of pride. if they don't perform then they deserve to be criticized. if they keep loosing against the team like bangladesh thats too in world cup, i am sure you will also say bye bye to such team.

I watch their game as no comedy show can be better and after all its free of cost. And I would suggest that you keep supporting India as someday, Dravid might notice you and include you in the team.Dont worry, if you dont perform. He will continue with you as long as you are in his favour. Or atleast he can give you a chance with some minnow nation where your averages will be enviable.

I watch each and every game, becos I like this game and I appreciate good game of cricket. But when ever India plays, being an Indian my support is definetly with Indian team. If India loses, I don't pass silly comments like you becos I know it is game, some one has to win or lose.
Whenever India plays my support will always be there and even if dravid notice's me and offers me to play for his team I would not play, becos there are great players in the indian bench who can play better than me on any given day.

As I write against this Team, I too internally support them and want them to win.
As for liking the game, I love the game too and I love watching good players. I liked to watch Saeed Anwar more than Sachin as I loved his game and style.I liked Zaheer Abbas more than Gavaskar. Though there are pinch hitters now, I found Srikanth and Kirti Azad better than any of them.
This the reason I watch Cricket. I love the game, I love the game of some players.Being an INdian I support India but the Sad part is I never seen any team lose so frequently without putting up some fight as India.
