Debacle! It almost has sparked a crisis back home just letting everyone know the standards of sport prefessionlism shown by boys of the 'richest' cricketing body in the world and who knows perhaps the highest paid cricketers in the world! The amount of hype created and the expectation levels, i think, far exceeded the performance that they have rendered. Remember, a lion is lion only in his Den. Yes, the team did win the series back home before leaving for world cup venue but lets face this. The india team has a poor win percentage abroad. The fact that indian team was ranked 8 before the start of the world cup shows the extent of the vision of becoming the 'top team' in the world materialised.
I'm a cricket fan. yes and would like to see india get into a winning habit. But sometimes being optimistic is different and being realistic is different. The realistic reference is of course the benchmark set by Australia, Sri Lanka, new Zealand etc. Hope and just hope is what i have..
