Fret not: India will go thru to Super8
by on Mar 19, 2007 02:18 AM

It is very unlikely that India will NOT go to the next round of the WC. Given its clout compared to other relatively puny nations (notably Bermuda and Bangadesh), I am fairly sure that deals will be worked out in the backoffice between the respective nations. Most likely scenario: in the final game of the group, Bangladesh will NOT beat Bermuda by the margin that it requires to go thru. A perfect win-win situation for diplomats of both counties. India goes thru and Bangla wallows in the pride of beating India (plus back-office credits/allowances).
