Humiliation loading in Ahmedabad more like... Imagine  the scene if we lose to Pak. 

 

Also loss in Semi is confirmed...  Playing Eng Aus on spin friendly Lucknow Chennai but good luck facing them in Wankhede. 

Hopefully Lankans & Afghans punch above their weight & we get a Asian team in Semis. 

 

Didn't australia beat us at chennai in last odi and went on to win series too? If we have spinners they too have zampa, agar, maxwell. England has moeen, rashid, livingstone.

Will attend all the matches at Wankhede.

 

England v/s SA

Sa v/s Bangladesh

India v/s Q2 ( Most likely Zimbabwe ) 

Afghanistan v/s Australia

Also the Semis 1, if manage to get tickets at affordable price. 

 

Someone also update when tickets will be available.

So if we qualify to the semis, we will play in Mumbai irrespective of our standings in the table.  :facepalm:

 

Australia, England and South Africa will easily overpower us at the Wankhede. If we're batting first, then there's no point in even showing up. We would not defenf even 370.

 

 

If i am not wrong, Wankhede Semis is between Team Ranked 1 v/s Team Ranked 4 in the table. So unless India tops the table or end up at Rank 4, they will not be playing the Semis at Wankhede .

Nah, if we qualify then semi final will be at wankhede no matter what except if opposition is pakistan and in that case it's gonna be at edge.

Also , why on earth aren't we playing the first game? Why not even the second of they wanted the previous finalists to be the opener?

 

Happened even in the last world cup where we played our first game after most teams had already played twice.. pathetic 

It's weird that Hosts are not kicking off the tourney...  BCCI clearly clueless again. 

Imagine a empty crowd for a opening match lmao

They will smash us badly in Wankhede or Dharamsala..  Chennai gives us a chance at least. 

Lucknow is especially designed to suit us...  Huge boundaries & a ultra slow pitch to limit English batters. 

 

All this won't matter when we reach Semis though.

There is a reason why Pakistan matches are never hosted in Mumbai. This has been the case for over four decades now. Even before the fixtures were out, it was obvious none of the Pak matches will be alloted to Mumbai. 

I remember the day before Mohali 2011...  There were literally War drums beating in Punjab. 

No wonder 2016 T20 WC game was taken away to Kolkata from Dharamsala. 

 

Shiv Sena won't allow Pak players in Mumbai is a known fact since decades.  After Mumbai terror attack it is impossible to host them there...  Hence either Kolkata or South India for them.

India should kick off the opening match of their own WC...

 

But BCCI is not stupid, they scheduled India's match on a Sunday- maximum viewership.

 

Again BCCI is prioritising revenue over common sense- as if people wont tune in to watch the match even if its on a Thursday :crazy:
