India is very unlucky
by veejay on Mar 26, 2007 08:55 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

i believe india met with a resurgent bangladesh and then with sri lanka who will most likely win the cup. apart frm that our net run-rate was quite good as compared to teams who won two matches in other groups. just the stars haven't favored us.
india is still among the top teams and can beat any other team on any given day.. we should not be angry with a couple of loses!!!

With all due apologies, either you're on crack or you rate our performance versus Bermuda really highly. Dude, we're amongst the top 8 teams in the world - at exactly the 8th position, but there are only 10 Test playing nations and one of those below us, Bangladesh, has just defeated us and it took us 4 attempts to win a series against Zimbabwe in Zimbabwe.

And yeah, these were just 'a couple of losses', and unfortunately for our greatly gifted team, Bermuda could not beat Bangladesh else we could have lifted the World Cup, may be on 'superior net run rate', right?
