Bangladesh beat Bermuda and comfortably made it to the super eights of the cricket world cup. They join Australia, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, West Indies, South Africa, England and Ireland in the next round of the World cup. I pick them to win convincingly against Ireland and also win against England :). I think Australia, Sri Lanka, South Africa and West Indies will be my favorites for the semi-finals now. New Zealand have progressed with 2 points but the injury to Lou Vincent is a major blow and I don't see then winning enough games to make the next stage.
Meanwhile, its time for the Indian team to head back and get a good break before a very hectic season. Its time for the people who matter to sit down and see how to take the team forward. I don't think its time to start thinking about 2011 yet. They need some short term objectives like how to make it to the top of the rankings in the two lists. The senior players need to decide about their commitment to the future of the team and the selectors need to decide if they see them in the future plans.
Lets hope something good happens out of this loss for the future of Indian cricket
