It is where clear that India's chances are now purely based on Ind-SL match. But, if India beats Srilanka, what will be the basis for selecting the group leader? Will India automatically become the leader as India beats SL. Or will be it be purely based on NRR?

obviously the leader will be india as they have defeated srilanka and will carry 2 points in the next stage.

Abhay,
even if India would have won all the matches they would have been B2. The group order will remain the same as how ICC arranged before the world cup based on ICC rankings. It will not change based on group performances. If there are any upsets then the minnows will replace the good teams like how pakistan is replaced by Ireland.

Even in an organisation you will find some guys who work once in a way and earn money. Cricket is no different it appears.

Pay 50% to captain (like Ganguly or Dravid)& selectors, so that his position is guarntee in the team. That's what happening now it seems.
In every coloum everybody is talking about net run rate. Everybody talking about India win over SriLanka. In Present case Bangladesh have better chance to go to Super 8. Because It has to beat to Bemuda & this is sure but India has to beat SriLanka it is not sure. In above column it is written India has chances to reach super 8's if he loses also if Banglades loses to Bermuda. Don't consider Bangalades a weaker side because it has the experience to win over Bermuda. Don't be that much positive.
The equation now is if India wins it will reach otherwise out like Pakistan.....

Dont worry. Indian players it seems have started giving practice and coaching Bemuda team so that they can beat Bangla Desh and help India make it to Super 8 stage even if they loose to Sri Lanka

I think India lost the plot against Bangladesh, however they have the capability to beat Srilanka. After a bad start hopefully India will fight its way back and lift the cup. At least India is not doing as bad as Pakistna did in 1992 and finally ended up winning the cup. Lets hope for the best.

India will not qualify at all in that case excepting that the Bangla/Bermuda match will also be washed out.

In that case Team India is coming home on Saturday or Sundays flight. Unless the players have got some Advertisement commitments in Carribean beaches with bikini girls. In that case it will be delayes unless shooting is completed.

then bangladesh will go through with 4 points against India's 3 points, assuming that Bangladesh will beat Bermuda.
RE:RE:Draw or Washout

Dont worry Bermuda is going to beat Bangla Desh just as Bangla beat India. Indians are coaching Bermuda.

by Himanshu Kala on Mar 22, 2007 04:08 PM Permalink
Then my dear,Bangladesh will move to next round. If Ban-Bermuda match will also be washed out then surely India will move to next round.

Well dada is not roaring this time, he is rather providing some stability to the top order. Which some of us don't like as slow batting, though I wish he improves his strike rate a bit more.
we peopels are really making Cricketers great.why we all negleting Kabadi,Hockey and other games where Indians are really trying hard to make India proud.we peoples cant do that.we will worship cricketer who are even not properly educated, so they cant understand the emotion of peoples.we shd not disuss what they doing.Think we are wasting time and money for the worthless players.we shd always talk abt Hockey,Kabadi,Golf ,Tenis etc.The Indian cricketer are too much proudy and unskilled.

There is hopeless situation in Hockey.Always we come in last or second last place.Kabbadi is a game tht is played in subcontinent only,so not much to talk abt it. Its a cricket crazy nation and hope our fighters will bring cheers to us.

Do you play all these games yourself? Do you follow all these matches. Tell me who is the current Kabaddi captain of India. Be honest and not be a hypocrite
RE:What bookies says

The Indian team management will have to think seriously on who all should play tomorrow. There are abt 4 or 5 left handers in the sri lankan team . We saw the Indians struggle against Bangladsh left handers. Ajit Agarkar doesn't ball well against them. Its a fact. Also regarding the batting order...... If sourav and Uthappa opens the batting and if Uthappa gets out first , say within 8 overs, then they should send sehwag in , if Ganguly gets out then they should send Rahul in... Because he should play better than any one against Vaas. Hope this should work fine. Again we can only hope they will do wht they have done against Bermuda
