2007 Bad Memories Return for Indian Cricket Team..!
No indian fan expected the indian team to perform so poorly at the 2021 t20 World Cup. Kohli's team went into the world cup in terrific shape, with a lot of confidence, solid form, and IPL match experience. The indian squad, however, departs the nation with a bundle of knots, exiting the Super-12 round at breakneck speed, much like a ball hitting the wall.
The indian team was knocked out in the first round of the 2007 ICC 50 overs world cup after such a humiliating defeat, much to the chagrin of the fans. The system then fails spectacularly 14 years later, and is eliminated in the first round. It's natural to wonder how the t20 world cup defeats of india, Afghanistan, Namibia, and scotland can be considered the worst. If they win all three teams, they will go to the semi-finals, despite the indian team's initial two defeats.
The games versus pakistan and New Zealand, on the other hand, determined the indian team's fate in the World Cup. Not to add how dismal the indian team's performance was in the two games. Nobody will ever forget the 10-wicket loss to pakistan and the loss of Captain Kohli's top 11 wickets versus New Zealand.
Despite these two setbacks, the indian team was told that if they beat the other three puppet teams, they would have a chance to play in the semi-finals. Tomorrow is the indian team's final match versus Namibia. It makes no difference whether india wins or loses.
