If there was ever a need for match fixing, it is now. Bangladesh should beat Bermuda, by hook or by crook. That's the only hope for salvation for Indian Cricket. Imagine what will happen if the India somehow manage to go thru…. We will reach the Super Eights. The World Cup Organisers, ICC, Sony, BCCI, the companies who have products endorsed by our "Men in Blue" will all be very happy. We will beat Ireland. Sachin will score his 42nd century and cross 15000 runs on One Day Internationals. We will also pick up one more point against England due to rain. Our "Stars" will bag more lucrative endorsement deals and it will be business as usual for cricket in India. Our "Vision 2007" will become "Vision 2011" and we will definitely improve. We will try out new path breaking things like having Rahul Dravid open the bowling, Harbhajan Singh as a wicket-keeper and Mahendra Dhoni as a spinner. We will invest heavily in youth by trying out 25 new players over the course of the next 25 matches. Our coach will again hold up his injured middle finger in some city after the team would have been beaten. Sachin will continue playing, and will cross 16000 runs and 45 centuries. You see, "form is temporary, class is permanent". We will come to World Cup 2011 as hot favourites. We will score 500 runs and beat Italy. Then over to Vision 2015, at the end of it we will beat Argentina in the World Cup. Sachin will score his 50th century. And we will be 1.5 Blue Billions in this land by then. All shouting "Ooooh Aaaaah India"…. |
