The Indian saga continues?

With an end to the boards for the tenth and twelfth CBSE students ,comes an end to the world cup for all the Indian cricket fans.After a humiliating defeat against Bangladesh the only hope of surviving in the world cup lay in the match India would play against Srilanka.Hopes died as we faced yet another humiliating defeat.Is our only reassurance the fact that the Pakistanis lost to a weekend playing team?Is backing on Bermuda to win against Bangladesh and entering the super 8 through the back door the only way?If Bermuda lose India lose,If Bermuda win India wins.Shouldn't the India's have fought their way into the super eight rather than backing on Bermuda ??Blind cricket fans all around still have world cup hopes!Where were the key players when we really needed them?You may ask the reason for me typing out this blog.I was talking to my brother (one of those blind cricket followers)..the conversation goes such
Me: whats going on with the Bermuda vs Bangladesh match?
Dad:Its raining
Me: oh!Thats bad isn't it?
Dad: yea,Bangladesh & Bermuda would receive 1 point each and Bangladesh will qualify
Me: YOU STILL THINK INDIA CAN QUALIFY INTO THE SUPER Eight??(shock!!)
Brother: Yes,INDIA WILL QUALIFY!and do well in the super 8 matches
Me: ha,after the way they played?? they lost against BANGLADESH!
Bro: They were not in form!
Me: NOT IN FORM??hello they are here for the world cup...they HAVE to be in form!
Bro:they played their best
Me:hahahahahahahahaha......played their best??you must be kidding,they played their worst!
(dad saves us from arguing more)

Now,this was just to show u the blind faith we have in the Indian team and the fact that we worship the players as god!They are humans people,get back down to earth!
