My dear friends...first INDIA have to win against srilanka today............after that world cup........
Despite of the slump in the present situation, the Indian tigers will sling their paws on the Simhalis and sprout back into the cup Calypso. Mera Bharat Mahan Hai. B.Vamsi krishna. M.Srikanth. Purna mama gujja-Jujjur.
I am sukhendra p. singh from Delhi, i said such sentance Because all of indain cricketers have theire own ego, and our captain is not active, he should think when our bowlers beated at that time he should take some action and should do some change but i dont think that he is able to captainship on critical position, no doubt he is a dependable bats man but he is not a good captain

Hey u sukhendar, Feel proud to be an indian.As u said rahul surely is not having the leadership qualities which is a big backdrop to india,but still they will surely fight back and enter the super-8 to the semis.

This is Rakesh Das from Mumbai and I%u2019m fully agree with Mr. Sukhendra that india will lose today%u2019s match. Every time they give us a dream that India will win again the cup, but they failed again and again not for that they are not capable to do this. Now nobody think about team India. They think only their selves. I think they completely forgotten our emotion and their aim. Now they are very busy to earn money by Advertising. I think Rahul is not capable as a captain. No doubt he is a great batsman. But In the field he did not like a leader but seems to a student of Guru chapple. He did not have any controlling power.
But like other Indians I also not accept this cruel truth from my heart. But it%u2019s a truth.

All right.. if u think he is the one who is not capable for captain ship.. thn tell me one who is able to be.. sehwag as if his performance has gone down,saurav has done a gr8 come bak,in this situation he needs more attention in his personal game rather then captianing the side,well sachin is happy with what he is.. the remaining are the ones who have hardly made their place permanant in side and few are new too.And yes as far as INDIA team, its lot better than mighty Lankans,dont forget.. we have bashed them recently 3-1. by Jigar R. Gor, mumbai
Personally being a Indian Cricket Fan, i would love Indiam team to win todays match.
But Srilanka may look at following aspects and will make it difficult for us to beat them. 1. If SL Win today, they will enter to super-8 with better net runrate and 2 carryforward points, which will be handy. Bcaz Bangladesh and Irelad can easily be expected to be out of contest after playing super-8 round. So two more teams to be eliminated from the rest, which are likely to be England and WI.
2. If India wins, then India will carryforward the points and it requires only 3 wins to get a berth in Semis, where as Srilanka needs to win atlest one more match more than India to be in a better position. 3. And if India wins and enters Super-8, it is very likely that, England, Irelad, SL and WI may get eliminated after super-8.
So if SL loose today, they will face a tough challenge ahead in next rounds and will make their life difficult. Rather they prefer to beat India today and to be in a better position to qualify for the Semis.
So now its up to our team to play better cricket and win todays match or allowing SL to enter Super-8 with more advantage

Har baar ki aaj bhi lagta hai ke India will win.Let us hope for better, todays I think Srilanka will not click. If Jaya is flop then Srilanka will be helpless. we need to concentrate more on bowling. Let us hope for India's win for better matches ahead.

India will surely beat Sri lanka coz it is a DO or Die situation for India and History Speaks whenever India fallen into this sitution they always deleivered Goods.

Sumitji,which goods you are talking about. If Indian team is a tranporter which deliver goods.
Option 1. India win today bcoz match is already fixed. Don't worry if Srilanka would not agree to loose 2 point..... Option 2. Bangladesh will loose against bermuda. But anyway India will qualify with the grace of match fixer and to business profit.

True - If India fails to reach the super 8 - The West Indies board will become bankrupt - The match has to be fixed to ensure thge world cup is a profitable venture

Very much correct
India Can Not looase this match, This is already fixed. ICC will not want that india gets out of the game so early. It will be a big loss.
You look at the previous matches. Against B'desh also, Sehwag was out without playing a single ball ( Runout) but he was given benefit of doubt which was not there. But even the umpires couldn't save india as they went either bold out or catch. Not a single LB.
Even in the second match against bermuda, Yuvi got out stumped, but got the benefit of doubt.
ICC didn't want pakistan also to go out of the fray. They were unlucky being all the players out by catches in deep hence no chance to get benefit of doubt etc.
Looking into these facts, it is sure that India is going to win today. Even it looses, It is sure that bangladesh will also loose to bermuda.

Great, it could also happen , because there are alot of match fixers in india , even in sponsers level it self , so they will provide funds
I am indian living in Ireland for last 6 years. It is a very small country, even smaller than some states in India. Football and rugby are big sports apart from some local sports. Majority of people don't know about cricket and usually make fun of the game. They have not more than 10 stadium and may be less than 5000 people who play. These guys do full-time job and play cricket on weekends and during summer. The current irish team includes a postman, storeman, sales rep, delivery driver, and a couple of university students.
The fact is - "Ireland has qualified for next round".
The facilities and money that indian players get is million times more than the irish players. I feel ashamed as India is on brink of being thrown out of world cup. I pray that India should win else I won't be able to say proudly to irish colleagues (which I have been saying since last 6 years) - India is good in cricket. If india lose, I'll have to hide somewhere or face their slagging till next world cup.

Actually, its a matter of hard work and passion. TEAM INDIA plays for money.If you dont have a job in India and somehow bribe your way into the Indian Team then you earn so much that no job can pay as good. Once in the Team, you know you wont last there as you are not hardworking, you give a good performance and manage a job lets say get employed in Bank of Baroda. Now if you lose your place in the team, still you have a job in the bank. Your future is secured.If you dont perform at all, and dont get a Job at least you can become a commentator and start commenting on what you are not expert at. Thats Indian Cricket.

Ravi Mnoey is important for any one. tell me if you are working will you work for charity? No way we all work for money and to be frank tell me till now how many times you have worked at par to what you earn every month? Has your performance excelled everytime? did you get Exceeds exceptions in your performance appraisal everytime? didn't your jouniors/subordinates outscored you occasionally? Similarly cricketers cannot performt o his best always, ther are bad patches. And to be a commentator is not any easy job, try it, to know it.

Well I or people around me leaving a select few do perform at par always. We exceed expectations some times.But we were never appraised below expectations. Whereas if you see the Indian Team's records, They have performed below expectations most of the times at par sometimes and exceeded expectations few times.1983 Was one of those few times.Compare the records with the nations like Australia, South Africa, Pakistan, Sri Lanka (Last Ten Years as they were like minnows before), England etc. See the no of Matches Won, Lost and Drawn against the above nations, not all.Then you will know what I mean to Say.
I too am an ardent cricket fan of India and I dont mind losing. But they way this team loses games, it shows the lack of fighting spirit and low morale. Its easy for the opponent to put them under pressure as they lose heart easily. Tell me if I am wrong.

Well Ashutosh, No Need to feel ashamed. To win or to lose is a part and parcel of this game irrespective of the opponents. India is definitely a good team and will be good, even if it doesnot makes thru S8. so if god forbids india lose today, don't hide your face, come out boldly and say next time we will make it. Be a true sports man

Well u all it is right that Indian Cricket team is playing only for Money. And i have a bad thing 4 the indians in the match with Bangladesh. That match was fixed. So dont worry Indains also fixed the match between Sri Lanka.
