Bengal ,you might have perfromed very badly as KKR. But as Bengal you have excelled .Syed Modi trophy ,you beat TN very comfortably .With bowlers like Dinda , you will surely win Syed Modi trophy.This is the real triumph , without Dada or sharrukh.best of Luck
India's opponent in quarters will be decided based on New Zealand Lanka game. Lanka wins, India plays New Zealand, Lanka loses India plays Pakistan. Obviously there are few assumptions to this like SA beating Bangladesh, India beating Windies etc.

Where is Yuvraj dear? Do U truly believe it will be the best team if India chose to leave their highest wicket-taker behind on the bench.

My team will be same but with Yuvraj in place of Munaf (Ashwin-Yuvraj combo will be a match winning note). ALso I would send Kohli at number 3 ahead of Gambhir.

INDIA WILL MAKE IT TO QUARTER AND SEMI because this is what the Bookie king.
For the Bookies, a huge amount hundreds of crores, is still pouring in. NOw, the trend has been changed! The people who have been betting for India is slowly betting for Pakistan and South Africa! At the beginning of the event, not many betted for Pakistan, everybody was betting for India! So, if India wins it will be a huge loss to the Betting Industry! If Pak wins, situation will be in favor of the Bookie! So the chances are the FINAL will be played BETWEEN PAK AND INDIA and PAK WINS LIFT THE WC IN INDIAN SOIL!
It is all fixed! It is a Hindi Movie! Everybody knows at the end what is going to happen!
Without help from Indian players, especially Captain Dhoni, and the BCCI, this manipulation and fixture of results WILL NOT HAPPEN!
In another sense, Dhoni is playing for D-Gang Betting Manager and for the victory of Pak! Dhoni is stabbing India from behind bribing to play against India! If you do not like this comment, WATCH AND GET CONVINCED - HIS GAME PLAN AND DECISIONS HE TAKES IN THE SELECTION OF PLAYERS BALL BY BALL!!

You two headed people will never be changed, If India wins then you will say bookie wants it and if India lose you will say it was match fixing! No matter what India do, you people will be the same. Shame on you people

i think u are right,not only Indian team or BCCI but ICC also must be involved in fixing,because of the huge money they get & our chutaya (innocent) public watching their drama without food & at the cost of their one day salary atwork.
Dear Sachin, I feel sad. Even after 22 years of playing for the country, you are still expected to win matches on your own. We forget that apart from you there are 10 more players in the team. You have been the run machine in World Cups with an average ...of 60. Even today while you yet again proved your class with a 111 the others around took it easy. You chased the ball in the outfield and ensured that your throws landed on top of the bails. Others preferred to drop catches or go back to the dressing room for a 'rest' while a substitute fielder came in. Sachin, the current Indian cricket team doesn't deserve you. They don't know what it is like to give one's blood and sweat for this nation of a billion people. For them fame and money has come to easy and undeserving - not commensurate to the 'supposed talent' that they posses. Do you remember what you had said to Tom Alter in that interview in 1989? "I just want to play cricket". Sachin, let me also not hide the truth - you are not my favorite cricketer - but one plays favorites only with humans - not with Gods for they are revered, emulated and looked at in awe... [We expect Sachin to win this cup for us. But what about the other players? Are they supposed to be playing ludo in the dressing room? I hope that the rest of the team wake up and realize that they are not there to 'play' in the tournament, they are supposed to 'win' it for India.

Very well put up Chinna..Sachin's deed for this nation are immeasurable. The collective amount of joy and happiness that he has delivered throughout these years, to all Indians worldwide, is unfathomable. My salute to this great human. May god bless him !!

You are perfectly right. Team should play around him. He should not be pressurized of hitting, others should do that.
