All hopes down the drain

Carrying a hope of 100 billion fans Indian team started their world cup hunt and I cant believe that the team tipped to get the world cup home lost miserably to Bangladesh in their opening match, virtually putting their progress in this edition at stake. Unlike the previous edition where a team is guaranteed to play 5-6 matches this one is not so - the chance to regroup and getting into form is not allowed in this tournament. The only chance of India going to next round is to beat Srilanka comprehensively this friday and edge over to Super Eights based on the net run rate - the probability of this happening looks bleak given the morale of the team after today's loss. If India does not progress further - March 17th 2007 will remain one of the worst days for the Indian cricket. My gut feel says that we are out of the tournament - please don't blame me for this - for me it is all hopes down the drain after this embarrassing defeat.
