• Why World cup 2007 is criticised for its format after the early exit of india and pakistan ?

  This was the information from wikipedia "World Cup was also criticized
  for its format, with India and
  Pakistan failing to move on from
  the group stage after losing two
  matches. This led to Ireland and
  Bangladesh entering the long
  Super Eights stage and
  consistently being defeated (bar
  another upset by Bangladesh
  over South Africa). The
  elimination of India and Pakistan
  also caused a large exodus of
  subcontinental fans from the
  Caribbean, and removed the
  prospect of an India vs Pakistan
  Super Eights match, generally
  considered one of the most
  revenue generating and electric
  matches in the tournament.
  The BCCI later claimed it would
  see to it that the ICC will alter its
  World Cup format for the 2011
  Cricket World Cup" but why it is criticised because the group is arranged correctly with 2 strong team and two weak team still why it widely criticised for its format

• First thing ur question is too long?
  The best of Cricket is when these two team play INDIA VS PAKISTAN.
  And when these two team exit early.
  Then its just a formality

• Cricket fans,which World Cup losses have been the most disappointing so far?

  For me as an Indian team supporter it's the 2003 WC final and 2007 early exit from the tournament
  .
  SA is my favourite team, so as a SouthAfrican fan it's the 1992,1999 and 2003 WC matches that SA got eliminated that still disappoints me whenever I remember them.

  Notice that those three countries lost in all the finals from there.
  
  1999 – Australia beat "Pakistan" to win the world cup.
  2003 – Australia beat "India" to win the world cup
  2007 – Australia beat "Sri Lanka" to win the world cup.

  I am hopeless now, We'll see what happens in the end. ;)

• Who Would Win The Upcoming World T20 ? Pak Won't Win This--Proof?

  Guys, I am done with my calculations, and I am sorry to say that Pakistan won't be able to win the upcoming T20 World Cup, because its now Sri Lanka's turn to win the T20 World Cup.
  
  My basis for this conclusion is as follows:
  
  To win a T20 World Cup, a team should have lost the final of a 50 over World Cup to Australia in the same country in which T20 World Cup is scheduled to take place. The following examples prove this theorem:
  
  India won the 2007 T20 World Cup in South Africa because they had lost the final of a 50 over World Cup to Australia in South Africa in 2003.
  
  Pakistan won the 2009 T20 World Cup in England because they had lost the final of a 50 over World Cup to Australia in England in 1999.
  
  Its Sri Lanka's turn now to win the upcoming T20 World Cup in West Indies, because they have lost the final of a 50 over World Cup to Australia in West Indies in 2007.
  
  Have a look from another angle:
  
  2007
  India and Pakistan
  India wins
  
  2009
  Pakistan and Sri Lanka
  India kicked out in group stage
  Pakistan win
  
  2010
  Sri Lanka and -------------
  Sri Lanka win
  Pakistan kicked out in group stage.
  
  Congratulations to Team Sri Lanka on winning the 2010 T20 World Cup.
  
  NOTE: I know that quite a few members in this section would be outraged after seeing this post of mine, but my humble request to them again is: "Don't take it seriously. Keep your cool. Take it lightly." Support your country LIKE my heart IS SUPPORTING PAKISTAN!!
  
  Inspired by a Indian channel with their "aankre" (number game)
  Stunner: Now Pakistan team will win the tournament at any cost, to prove you wrong :)
  @fake Haneef: No that was not my question, I only have one account.
