T20 World Cup 2010 - Discussion Zone

They were looking exhausted like a fat Who**
Damn I just don't get it, why the hell Murali Vijay, Yusuf and Jadeja are in team? Saurabh Tiwary, Robin Uthappa deserve to be there instead of them.
We seriously missed Sehwag because Murali Vijay may score runs in IPL against those slow Indian domestic bowlers but against international sides? He just don't deserve it.

 

Well, I never said... Just check out this thread !
And I am also happy that India is out.

 

I am seriously very dissapointed with our bl**dy players. I mean what are they doing out there? Inspite of providing a luxurious facilities....best coach Gary Kirsten...Why they are not performing. Lack of energy...lack of confidence....
I am really shy on our Indian Players the way they are playing. Look at the big names Dhoni, Yuvraj, Raina, Yusuf, Harbhajan they are only big names on paper nothing else.
Friends I have decided I will no longer watch Indian matches from now on.

 

Well, Winning and losing is a part of them game, but its important to learn from their mistakes and overcome them.
This loophole of Short bowling was discovered way 10 months back in T20 World cup 2009 in England where Ryan Sidebottom chocked them with bouncers, and it is repeated here again.

Why it happened? i can only see IPL behind it, because playing constantly for 45 days in summer and that is in 44 degrees is not an easy task. But they are professional and getting paid in millions, they have to overcome it. Look at those other overseas players they were also traveling and playing for 45 days in IPL (Pollard, David Warner, Nanas, Tait and so on) they are also performing for their teams.

I still believe just because of tight schedule of IPL just before world cup and excessive cricket being played is the reason for this performance.

On the other side IPL fever for Indian cricketers is just becoming like football English premier league where English players likes to play more in those leagues rather than playing for their nation in international events and that is the reason why England haven't done that great in world cups or even performed better from so many years. Same happening with Indian cricket.

 

You're right about everything except the last part and especially the example about Premier League. Now each soccer playing nation's got a league, and each is as famous and glamorous as the other, so how would you explain teams like Spain, Italy or Brazil winning international tournaments/cups?

 

Who cares?...move on.

 

India is almost out of T20 world cup 2010. Sad news for Indians.

 

Haven't you got a wedding to worry about ?

 

If Aus win over SL ( they surely are at the moment)
and Ind win over SL
and Aus win over WI

That should get India into the semis, making them three time lucky... How's that for maths, huh? Pretty nice equation, no?

 

It will be very hard for India,they have very worst run rate atm as compared to Pakistan in the other group.

 

On second thoughts, you're right neighbor

P.S. Though I ain't never compared India to Pakistan

Oh man! I regret sayin' that. lOl

 

England has not been mnetioned........so I will !!!!!!!!!!

 

Indeed best NRR in the entire looser panel of WC

 

There is nothing new in this defeat. It is a well known fact that Indian batsmen are tigers only on flat and turning pitches. Give them bouncy pitches and they are all at sea!

We would not have even qualified for super 8, had the preliminary matches been played at Barbados too!

Then India has a good chance as Australia is sure to tame the windies and SL doesnt look to be threatning in their pace bowling department.

 

Yeah agree! But weakness against short pitch stuff can be solved? Remember, before IPL even started these young Indian kids won us world cup in 07 on world's Fastest and bouncy cricket pitches which are Durban and Wanderers in South Africa. So, Its not like that they cant do it or not able to, but its about doing same Bullcrap again and again and not learning from that.

Now, wonder what they gonna do in the next tour in Zimbabwe with 9 main players rested, soon after they come back home lol

 

India lost second match in super eight,
any chance to come in semi for India?

 

Did India play any warm ups before the T20 World Cup? I dont think I remember any scorecards on Cricinfo..
If they did not it was a very silly thing to do especially considering that the pitches in India are different..

 

No need to play any warm ups man. The team already played enough cricket in IPL. It seems they now do not care about cricket. Just money is everything.

Has anyone imagined Monthly income of our Indian cricketer?

 

Who cares about the cricket? These rested players will now have ample time on their hands to do all the endorsements and fill up their already bulging bank balances!
