The 10th World Cup is around the corner. This World Cup is jointly hosted by three nations. India, Sri Lanka and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747. Therefore, there would be a huge burden of pressure on each hosting team. The Indian team will definitely have a lot of
pressure on them because of three main reasons.
Firstly, they currently hold the second position in the ICC ODI team rankings. They have been playing exceptionally well throughout the four long years and maintained their position in the ICC. They would definitely go for the victory in the World Cup while
keeping in mind the position in the ICC ODI rankings.
Secondly, they are hosting the mega event. India would definitely have an advantage of home ground but not of the home crowd.
Thirdly, the reason of not having the home crowd advantage, Indians are crazy about cricket and they can’t see their team losing in the mega event as they did in 1996 semi final against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758, when India could not manage to keep wickets and the crowd
interrupted the match several times by throwing things on Sri Lankan fielders. Ultimately, Sri Lanka was declared qualified for the final without having a pleasant end of the semi final. So the fact of losing the match in front of such a crazy crowd itself
builds a lot of pressure on the local team.
Indian captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gary-Kirsten-c58527 resigning as India’s coach.
He said that now we are taking a lot of pressure, and are scared of any particular opposition but all the teams are dangerous. He added that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 has a great blend of experienced players who know how to cope with pressured situations and youngsters, who
have the ability to change the scenario of the game and the most important thing that they have in mind is that, not being victorious in the World Cup would be the end the world.
Dhoni said that they are aiming to win the World Cup. It is one of the most important tournaments of the world and the whole team needs to perform as one unit, and to do well in every aspect of the game.
The Indian captain said that he is happy with the prolonged schedule of the World Cup comprising on 43 days while the world’s most famous game decides its winner within a month. However, the prolonged schedule of the World cup will give them more time to
think and to overcome their trivial problems.
India will take on http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 in their first warm up match on Sunday. Australian captain Ricky Pointing will be appearing in his first game after recovering from injury. It took Pointing six weeks to recover from injury.
Dhoni added that at the moment they don’t have any strategies in their sac. They will apply all strategies on the ground.
They have done a very light practice session on Wednesday while on Thursday India had a rigorous practice session of four hours, which helped Indian coach Kirsten to point out the players’ faults and flaws and tried to remove them.
