achilles Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Firstly, Kudos to our young brigade for putting a smile on our face with a victory. :isalute: But there are 5 things that we should not forget after winning this T20- 1. This win comes after 13 straight losses abroad (8 in England, 4+1 in Australia). 2. This win comes against effectively the weakest Australian team we have faced in a long time who made us struggle for 10 balls to score simply 3 runs. 3. This is a T20 game. Not a Test, which we were #1 in. Not an ODI, which we are World Champions of. 4. This win doesn't wash away our consistently poor performances. 5. The fielding over the past 2 games and the ODIs back home, stresses on the point of promoting younger players into the Test arena. Lets not blind away from the problems we've faced. Congratulations for winning today, but there is a lot more we have to do to improve our performance in Tests and ODIs abroad.

Agree great post, the problem is most Indians will forget about everything that has happened now, and normal service will resume.

Shunya Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 bas karo yaar .... everybody knows it...agar aapko dukhi aatma banke rehna hai sari zindagi toh tv/pc bandh karke bethe raho kone mein...t20/odi pasand nahi hai to mat dekhe...dusro ko to thoda enjoy karne do...its just a sport... extreme hating or extreme loving is injurious to your health...

Thoda zyaada ho gaya, nai? This is neither extreme hating nor extreme loving. Its just staying aware of the background of this victory.
