"India chased down a modest 215 with four wickets in hand to register an victory in the first ODI on Monday."
I think rediff wanted to add 'easy' in between 'an' and 'victory' and later edited thinking that it was not too easy a win but didn't change 'an' to 'a'.

acha? It was a comfortable win kake... we will get stronger now. Only man to watch out for is Sarwan... he's showing signs of 'returning'... and if he fires, he can be winning ticket for Windies.
Gayle missing is one issue and Wk keepers from WI is really useless, they are neither batsman and keeper, because of the keeper WI is missing pollard or 1 main bowler. other wise the team really good but donot know how they are getting fail. this is the team with full of all rounders.

Dear india playing 11 has played much more international level cricket if compare to WI playing 11, except bravo and Gayle, show me the exp players,oh common guys,except dhawan and Badri, all are senior and experience palyers. even Badri and Dhawan had played 4 IPL's and face many international players.on other hand if our seniors players retired and India lost the match, then also u will, we lost because no sachin, no yuvraj.

One cup victory doesn't make any team champion for ever. Even in wcup league matches India lost agsinst SA, tied agianst England (as god as defeat)& struggled to win against WI. Only 3 win aginst minnows. In S/F also poor fielding of pakistan helped. we were good agianst Aus & SLK. Indians are always good at flat indian wicket. So don't take it for granted taht we are champion. We lost SA ODI series just before Wcup. We won 2007 T-20 wcup but waht happened in next 2 wcups. out in 1st round loosing all matches. No one is champion for ever & any team is as good as last match.

no sports lover, pessimism optimism has got nothing to do with it...
ASHISH KUMAR is just blind sachin fanatic and blind dhoni hater.
He is just angry that we won it when dhoni was in CHARGE of the indian team...
so long as dhoni is our captain/in the team he hates/minds it whether we win or lose.
and if dhoni is not out captain/not in the team he loves/does not mind it whether we win or lose...
ASHISH KUMAR would not have minded (probably even loved) had we lost the WC. In fact he had predicted first round exit for india. to have reached finals and won it is too much for him to bear.
The fact that 1-we reached finals and won it (!) under dhoni captaincy, 2-sachin failing in final and 3-dhoni playing a match winning innings of 91 in 78 balls and that too NOT OUT (for which many people hate him) ...
this 3 in 1 insult is too much for ASHISH KUMAR to digest and hence he is being nasty...
Rest Assured Sports Lover if dhoni was not captain and not in the team ashish kumar would not have reacted thus....

I know. I normally ignore his posts because as you mentioned he is biased which I am not. I am more interested in India winning rather than who is captain or who scored runs.
