But we're world champions!

rememebr that although India won the world cup , they lost to South Africa in the tournament

[prinzo]

Saurav01 Seems like South Africa is not really a major cricketing nation, but winning a series there would be the pinnacle of cricketing accomplishment.

Saurav01 , if South Africa is not a major cricketing nation , it must be embarrasing for India to have not won a test series in SA is it not , even better yet to have lost a ODI game in the world cup to "SA" aswell:hysterical:

rememebr that although India won the world cup ' date=' they lost to South Africa in the tournament[/quote'] I will happily take bunch of WC losses as long as we win the tourney... something akin to losing a battle but winning the war

Sour grapes from Indian fans. It's much easier to win a slogging contest then to win a test series in SA or Aus. Indian fans know this deep down, but they don't want to admit it. CWC is equivalent to 5 a side football or winning rugby 7's at the Olympics. It's not real crciket.

If it were so easy I am sure Eng would have managed multiple titles by now :haha: I see sour grapes but from some other team's fans - the team who managed to choke in 3 WC finals :--D

WC win for sure. The World Cup is etched in history forever. Even the ICC lists it as the pinnacle of the sport of cricket.

ICC just saying this to keep other countries interested. Everybody knows the Ashes is the most important thing to win in cricket. Series between the two biggest cricket countries.
