india will win.......................
by Pravin P. Raut on Mar 22, 2007 04:29 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Here is analysis regarding Chances to win the World Cup 2007 for India :

Reason1:

Year 1981
1. Prince Charles got married
2. Liverpool crowned Champions of Europe
3. Australia lost the Ashes
4. Pope Died
5. 2 years later India won the world Cup!!!

Year 2005
1. Prince Charles got married
2. Liverpool crowned Champions of Europe
3. Australia lost the Ashes
4. Pope Died
5. 2 years later India will win the world Cup

Reason2:

1982 Football World Cup won by Italy
1983 Cricket World Cup won by India

2006 Football World Cup won by Italy
2007 Cricket World Cup: INDIA

Reason 3:

1983: India has lost the only first match in 1983 world cup

2007: India has lost the only first match in 2007 and will not again

Still doubtful??? Watch out on Final Day

Knock out Punch:

1983 ? India stopped WI from winning World Cup for 3 rd consecutive time
and since then WI has been in doldrums!
2007 ? India stops Australia from a 3 rd time WC ? and then ???

lets hope for the best



%uFFFD only subjected to its win against srilanka tomorrow.

Guys,

Remember just before last World Cup final? Many arithmetics / astrology were given as to why India should win.

1. From 79 till 99 the winning captains are alternatively LH & RH. So 2003 should belong to Ganguly and not Ponting.... Beautiful logic.

2. Years between 2 world cup wins. WI - 4 (79-75) Australia - 12 (99-87) India - 20 (2003-1983)...... Arre waah!!

Australians are to be blamed. They did not know these predictions. Otherwise we would have won!! Remember the courage of Arjuna Ranatunga who won the toss and elected to field in 1996 though the history till that point was that the team batting first was winning.......

u r incorrect abt the 1983 cup. india did not loose the 1st match. infact it won against the WI. then its lost against Aus and WI in other group matches. But i still hope all other reasons come true n we become the winners.
