well India has given me nothing except a lot of corrupted bunch like you who wouldn't let India progress. I dont think i am blind like you to support a stupid team which really lacks the fire in the belly to make things happen. but only knows to put of that fire in the belly by drinking a,lot of coke and pepsi.
This indian team is capable of beating any side on its day. Todays game is gonna be very interesting. Aussie heavily rely on Hayden Gilchrist and symonds to . Their captain isnt playing. The few matches ponting played..he did look out of sorts. Hussey & Michael clarke doesnt seem to have cracked the T20 matrix yet. Watson will play for the first time. But their bowling is potent India will necessarily have to target both lee and stewart clarke. If Dhoni &co manage to de rail the rhythm of these bowllers India can beat the aussies. However Indians despite fielding a very young team lags way behind the men from down under as far as fielding is concerned. T20 is a game where fielding assumes huge importance and this sure makes the aussie one up on India. Having said that if India bats first and manage a 200 plus total then the pressure will be on the OZ. To top it if they manage to snare either hayden or gilchrist or both cheaply they sure will seal the match. This is a crunch match and the aussies are used to this kind of pressure cooker situation and have handled well in the past aswell. India on the other hand tend to drop shoulders when the going gets tough. However this young side under dhoni certainly holds promise. I hope the indian selectors do not revert to the trio of sachin, drawid and ganguly incase we lose this match. We have to show faith in this lot, they are young, eager and hungry for success. The semifinal between India and Aussie will be a cracker of a game

Yes I do agree that on a given day any team can beat any other team then why cant India beat Australia ?. I feel that the key to this match can be early Aussie wickets bcoz they have been playing so well that the bottom half of the Aussie batting line up may be out of touch and India can take the advantage of that,
20-20 is a lottery. this game especially suits to Indians rather than Aussies because Indians play inconsistent cricket and shorter version always easier for them. Aussies are perfectionist and sometimes loosing their ploy in this shorter version and by the time they releaise , the time is getting of.
Nobody is a favourite here in 20-20. if you see matches India played against England and SA, A good 2 to 3 overs can turn the match. one Yuvi over turned the match in favour of India against England and good frist 5 overs by INdian bowlers turned the match in favour of India against SA.
It doesnt matter even if India dont win and this No fear of Youth will help India and Aussie may come into the trap of their own reputation. So pressue will be definitely on Aussies.
