I really dont understand the need of some people here to undermine the hope and belief of fans on the team...We believe in our team , what harm is it doing to u ?

 

 

Rightly said. I have absolutely no clue why some people just dampen others spirits.

 

In fact, if India do lose to Australia on Thursday I can only imagine these very same people who are undermining our hopes towards the Indian team to come here and say how correct they were and how foolish we were in believing that India can actually win over the Aussies. Dampeners and their unrelenting criticisms.

 

But, if India win... then we'll just have to wait and see what they chime in with.

Ignore such specimens. That's the best way to dampen their spirits.

Yes. After reading their posts you could actually key in a reply but a few seconds after doing so you realize there is absolutely no point whatsoever. No matter what you write they'll always come up with a reason or more to sour your mood. Best way out is like you mentioned Big Boss... ignore them and stay clear.

 

No matter what they say... when those little blinkers of criticism are removed I think we all realize how great this Indian team has performed in this World Cup, that is at least some of us do... and supporting that performance is worth it, every bit.

Glenn Maxwell Reminds India of Their Recent Dismal Record vs Australia

 

 

India did not win a single game against the Aussies in the Tests and ODI tri-series. The two teams will play each other in the second World Cup semi-final on March 26.

 

Australian batsman Glenn Maxwell on Saturday said the Indian team should remember that it hasn't won a single game against his side this summer. He added that the hosts intend to keep it that way in Thursday's ICC Cricket World Cup semi-final against the defending champions

 

Asked how difficult will it be for Australia to stop the unbeaten Indian juggernaut, Maxwell replied, "I think we targeted them pretty well this summer. They haven't won a game against us all through the summer. Hopefully that is pretty clear in their memories".

 

"We can make the most of that (all-win record). We've been dominant all summer in the ODI format. We want to continue that.

Bit late to yesterday's party NZ vs WI!!

Guptill's innings is the best I have seen in a KO ODI Game yet foe the team batting first. Started watching ball by ball from 2:00 AM and TBH, That Guptill's innings didn't let me sleep even for a second. An exceptional innings full of class and clean hits. :good:

WI lost their Game when they were unsuccessful in delivering the yorkers... and Guptill took the Game away. Well played NZ.

 

Now, TBH i think all of you agree that the best 4 Teams are in the semi finals.

 

I think I am in one of the very few in the Voting Polls who rooted for SA vs AUS Final Clash. TBH, its just a pick.. You can't even give a proper reasoning in support of any of the above teams as all of them are in a Tremendous form.

 

Still my reasoning :-

NZ vs SA (Game of Chokers) --> TBH, Can be anyone's Game but I choose SA becoz of their confident win over SL and their zeal to lift the Cup. Team ABD will fight for it. Though this will be one Hell! of a Match. Also I am supporting SA and God ABD.

 

Aus vs IND --> I was going though few comments, I don't understand What makes you think that members here who voted for AUS like AUS and they don't want Team India to enter in the Finals! ?? If you are thinking that then you are absolutely wrong in most cases. We obviously want India to beat the heck out of the Aussies at their own Den and go to Finals. Our heart wants that. But our brain calculates something else...

 

AUS Advantages:-

1. Their batting order length and all of them are in form.

2. Both Mitchells.. Starc & Johnson...

3. Home Ground Advantage both in Semis & Finals...

4. Clarke leading from the front and have been in this situation many times.

5. Defeated India no of times for past 3-4 months.

6. They already faced NZ & SL who were in better form than SA & Pak.

 

IND Advantages :-

1. Bowling! Surprise, we never associate our Team with this as we all are very much confident in our batting but this WC it was Bowlers.

2. Apart from Jadega all of the Top order are in form.

3. Unbeaten Streak.

4. Captain Cool Dhoni leading from the front and and have been in this situation many times, using the best of resources what he currently have in shelf.

 

I am rooting for 60% AUS and 40% IND. I want us to win this Game though. :)

 

So, Here My Prediction.

 

SA vs NZ --> SA.

IND vs AUS --> AUS.

 

Finals --> SA vs AUS.

 

Game On.

:cheers:

I don't know why you guys are taking it so personally! Lo!!! :doh:

 

It's just my opinion. Neither am i saying that i want India to lose nor do i want to dampen/sour anybody's spirit. C'mon guys, don't make me out to be the bad guy just cos i have a different opinion. If it makes you guys feel better than i'll just blindly root for India like everyone else on this thread! Lol!!! :console:

Everyone living in India of Indian Nationality will obviously root for India

There is no reason I see can happen otherwise

 

 

It's just that there is difference between mentally stable crowd who root for the team with a sane mind

& there are those who were banging there head on Walls with each Indian loss over the year & going as far as blaming their spouses for the losses LAWL

 

This is the same crowd you'll see dancing jumping & celebrating Diwali on India beating Pak & Bong

& visualising WC already

This crowd will go back again blaming their spouses & mother in laws if they couldn't lift it

 

While you & me will give a pat & say well tried

Understand the difference

What the :rofl:

It would be sad to see NZ lose :( both NZ and SA have lots of emotions attached to it. If SA doesn't win, I hope NZ does.

I support NZ but I won't mind SA winning too.. They both deserve d finals n probably the cup more Dan anyone. If somehow we lose out Match to aussies Dan I am supporting whoever wins tomorrow. Will be fun nonetheless
