If you are satisfied with a lot of semi finals or finals you would soon be like England or South African fan .

 

Never satisfied. Point is its not a disaster and we need to accept and move on. We have played well. I want Indian team to win every game, be it against zimbabwe, against papua new guinea or against aus or Pak.  It is just that I can't realistically be expecting them to beat team every time as the other team has to perform some day eventually better than us. This i just what Pakistan did today. They performed better than us.

reach semis in 2015 and finals of t20 world cup in 2014 and semis of t20 wc in 2016 amd now finals here,  

 

That right there enough to know we are having "not so disaster" far too often.

We didn't go on to win WC 1996 and 2003, so they obviously can't be compared. Mohali I agree was huge but still not a Final. Moreover Pak competed pretty well for more than half the match. Here it was a massacre right from the onset. Generally when 2 teams make the finals, it is very rare that one team annihilates another because only the best 2 teams(or in form) make the finals making it a closely contested tussle. 2003 WC final was a massacre but that was the GOAT team, still margin was only 125 runs and we were ahead of D/L when rainstorms threatened to wash out the match. This Pak team is nothing compared to that Oz team, and they have annihilated us, I don't know the exact teem to describe such an event. Imagine Germany meeting France in a football WC final and crushing them 10-0, this was that bad. The sheen hasn't been diminished, the entire streak has been murdered, torn to shreds, chewed up and spat out. 

Truth!

it wasnt a world cup. IN CT, they have beaten us before.

Granted we have a 11-0 streak going against them in CWC and T20. But we might not play them in a major ICC final for another 20 years. TBH today was the highest profile match against them since the 1985 B&H finals (Mohali, as big as it was, still a SF only). I don't rate WT20 that highly, for me mini world cup/CT with top 8 teams playing in 50 over format is 2nd only to CWC. With everything at stake and in spite of our mental edge we were hammered badly today, 180 runs are you freaking kidding me...you would expect that scorecard when Singapore cricket team plays a top 8 side. The most one sided and brutal beatdown in the history of CWC/CT finals. We may get a chance to play them in such a huge final in the future but we are never going to thrash them by 180 runs in a major final. In fact I don't see any ICC final in the next 100 years being such a massacre unless this same Indian team shows up again in 2019. Pak have ensured that they have the upper hand in spite of 11-0, until we beat them like this in the future. 

 

Already they have test H2H lead, ODI H2H lead and the most one sided finals victory in the history of the game against us. We have to be forever underneath their shadows in the rivalry unless we repeat 1985 finals or hammer them in a WC final some day. Truly today was the black day in Indian cricketing history, a bunch of spineless cowards wore the blues and humiliated their country in front of the global stage. What happened today is unprecedented, believe me. May be you can compare this beatdown to the RG 2008 F where Nadal steamrolled Federer 6-1 6-3 6-0. To top it off no shame on the faces of our overpampered, overhyped maharathis in the presentation ceremony. It was as if Kohli enjoyed being Sarfaraz's little *****. 11-0 has been avenged on Kohli's watch, history will remember him as the fool who gave the most shambolic captaincy display seen on the cricket field, history will remember this skinning until we repay them back in their own coin.

 

Many traitors all over India have been bursting crackers non stop today, Kashmiri piglets are provoking our army jawans as I type, jawans who are ready to lay down their lives at the snap of a finger to defend us. But apparently our maharathis don't give a damn. It is the next IPL party, the next Bollywood show, the next fashion shoot in their minds. Zero patriotism, zero enthusiasm, poor body language, no pride...Pakistanis had the mean don't eff with us look on their faces while our rockstars turned up thinking it was an ad shoot. No semblance of any fight, loss  by 180 runs....eff off. 

This..All those group victories aside,it was freaking final.[emoji35]

all group stage wins are ok but dont really make me super excited. Bar 03 which was hyped game of the decade n we destroyed Pak ATG bowling attack.

 

92 didnt care. 96 of course was WC QF against such a strong Pak team n was a great win.

 

99 didnt really matter that much.

 

2011 Mohali was hyped match of the decade n that is a match that still scars n haunts Pak fans to this day.

 

2015 win was just formality for me. didnt feel anything.

 

even 2017 CT group stage win.

LOL What ? If you count CT in world cups there was never any streak of any sorts. Pak already defeated us in 04 and 09. 

The world cup streak will be on test in 2019. 

 

And FFS this was a one off. Pak will be swept 5/0 if the govt allows us to play an ODI series .
