Ranvir Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Well it's like this for the England football team. They get treated like heroes for getting to the semi finals of the World Cup or European Cup. What's worse is that they continue to make documentaries of these 'achievements' 20 years later. bhakum20, Adi BB and JourneyMan 2 1 Link to comment
chewy Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Here is another thing, if Kohli's doesn't resign after this epic failure. Then India as a cricket team will never advance or progress. Him not resigning basically sends message that reaching SF was good achievement. Didn't happen after 2015 failure. Players on head is stuck up their own..... Same goes for coach and selectors.

jonas10 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 The reality is most of those Indians on the team don't care.Kohli said the team has a bad 45 minutes. Life goes on type attitude. Time to statpad in IPL.Can't win them all type mentality.Pathetic Sent from my SM-N960W using Tapatalk Link to comment
Laaloo Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 There are losers on my fb feed posting memes of win or lose I support team india. How do we improve or make changes with these losers? Pollack, maniac, Mosher and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment
Adi BB Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I am absolutely amazed at how the social media and Twitterattis are reacting to this defeat ! They are so cool and recating as if we won the cup, how great we performed and what a champion team we are! In reality ,getting into the semis of an already depleted field (cricketing nations I.e) is a nothing achievement for the world's richest cricket board, highest paid cricketers and the only sport which is followed religiously. Now please dont compare with England ,there priorities lie in different sports and they win plenty of Olympic medals we can dream . This team doesn't deserve any sort of felicitation ! Any proper cricketing fan knew this team will blow up in one of the KOs and it happened ,only deluded fools thought of this team as world beaters Mosher, Pollack, Laaloo and 1 other 4 Link to comment

News media, social media is full of how we played good cricket and it's disheartening to lose but it's just a game. While I am happy that Indian fans are maturing rather than burning Cricketers houses, I also fear Cricketers are taking this for granted. They are not paid in millions to lose like losers in knockouts. After CT finals they should have had some shame and determined to win this World Cup not repeating the same mistakes. Dont invest so much emotionally to this team. I learnt it the hard way ,now it doesn't matter too much.when the team itself is deluded and not ready to acknowledge its weakness why are we so bothered ? I think kohli himself isnt too much into these ICC tournaments ,he only wants to excel in the tests and you see him go gaga whenever the test season arrives Pollack 1 Link to comment

Zero_Unit Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 One has to see what really was our preparation prior to the WC? F'ing two months of Tamasha league where they gave it their all to win side money. While teams like pak/BD/WI/etc were playing matches in alien condition to get prepared. Our players were getting small niggles/extra pressure to do well in IPL. Mental fatigue is a real thing. Link to comment

Only difference is that England is competing against 32 very very strong teams in 90 minute matches where a freak kick or a pass can eliminate anyone on anyday. In comparison we are competing in a sport where there are couple of strong teams namely 2 to be precise in Eng and Aus Link to comment

BCCI richest board minting loads of money. Decent infrastructure and reach within the country in this decade. Cricketers are like treated like Gods and paid in millions. Taking into view the above, it's amazing to see people satisfied with India reaching semi finals. Ridiculous. Why are we satisfied with mediocrity? Because we have chalta hai attitude, easily get complacent and hero worshipping gives these a-holes a sense of entitlement. Why do you think people like Ailaa, Thala stick around beyond their sell date. If it was England or Aus, these morons would be banished before they quit on their own.

hoesmad Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 15 years ago you only had WC and ICC knockout Tropy. Now you have IPL every year, T20 WC, CT and the WC. They don't really care much about WC. Besides Kohli had already won the WC, so he probably doesn't feel the same way. Adi BB 1 Link to comment

Add to that NZ were in terrible form coming into this game. One of the worst losses, even bigger than CT17 as that pak team was better than this nz one. Thank our luck Smith/Warner were not there during the test series, otherwise it would have been one whole year of embarrassing cricket Link to comment
