English cricket has got the fire power of talent to make to the business end of any tounament, it is also identically evident with it's soccer team, despite having all that, they simply dont crack the preliminary rounds?
If feel there is a jinks that follows them like a shadow, and it is upto them to break it or go down with it!

And when it comes to the Indian team,it's not the jinx or sheer bad luck,its murder.Comments like 'Tendulkar never performs when India wins'are offered by those who have not touched a cricket bat in their life. I hope the same magnanimity is shown while analyzing the failure of Indian team.
India & meida must relearn basic eithics, bewfore too late. Mischeavous Indian media also do the same with regard to its neighborsas offccial policy of India. Shame India puppy shame india.

u know the english of pakis?? :) its worthless to tell them to learn english.
Popularity of the game in England is declining because of the negative attitude of English cricket officials and the media. Even though Cricket originated in England, it was never given due importance there, especially if other countries like India, Pak & Sri Lanka do better than them.
I don’t think that the ‘Opening Ceremony which was originally scheduled at 9 pm IST was cancelled due to bad weather (as officially announced). There was only light drizzle. It was cancelled because of poor crowd attendance. At 9 pm there were only a handful of spectators. The officials were clearly quite embarrassed and put the blame on weather. Less than 100 people had gathered for this event. This shows the lack of interest for the game and the confidence English people have for their team. Had this event took place in India, just imagine the crowd and media buildup.
The English and the Australian media always downplay the news involving success of teams from non white countries. When the Indian team won the inaugural T20 world Cup last time, the news was not mentioned in any of the Australian newspaper. Not even in the remotest corner. This was despite the fact that Australia qualified for the Semifinal and lost against India.
This is having a negative impact on the game and the interest for this great game is declining steadily and England will continue to do poorly.

Let us hope like that only. But at the same time remember their performance against Australia in the warm up match.
England took this match too easily,otherwise Dutch wouldn't have come closed to the target.england hammered WI in warm up match,and here they got beaten.I f England won't make to super 8,then the exictment would be little less.England have quality player like Luke wright,S broad,Pieterson,but yesterday better team won.
Hard luck for england!!!!!!!But England should beat Pakistan and with higher run-rate,so the Porkis r kicked out of T/20 WC,just like they were kicked out of IPL 2
