India have traditionally not done well, whenever there has been a WC just after the IPL. The same hppd in 2nd T20 WC as well, didn't qualify for the 2nd league. I recall Kohli or Dhoni's interview thanking the gods for WC to happen prior to the IPL - the last one or prior to that.
I have no clue why India were considered favorites in this WC to begin with, they have had horrible record off-late & most of the main players missed the matches as well - not to mention half the squad is out-of-form coming into the WC, if you see the squads which played T20I's - just compare this with any other team, you will know what I'm talking about.
predictors went horribly wrong this time đ¤Ł
many thought india was fav but they r performing miserably so far
some thought west indies will go to semis for surely they are also struggling
some thought bangladesh would be dark horse of this wc, they did not even win a single match
instead for now
pakistan seems to be fav
england will surely go semis
and afghanistan is the dark horse
also pacers r doing better than spinners it seems
even middle and lower order(bowlers) r getting more runs than top order in some matches đ¤Ł
man this world cup is wild!
