Cricket is such a horrible boring sport it should be banned. "Oooh look at us we can't play in the rain we'll get wet". Bunch of fairies.

HS,
I agree with your thesis and share the same concerns, but will disagree with the idea that this is the weakest team ever to disappoint Pak fans. Have we forgotten the first round exit from the last worldcup? Losing to Ireland? Then we had all the greats (Inzi, Woolmer) yet we suffered humiliating defeat.
Problem with Pak cricket is their unwillingness to try new talent, honor merit and punish mediocrity. That is the Ozzi spirit, ours is stick with known commodities and reduce headline risk. Thus the mediocrity.

Indian team is not better than Pakistan. Kumble has to say something, so he said that. The media frames question in such a manner that, Kumble has to speak in that manner. Reagarding performance of Pakistani team, with this bad state, they are similar to "*" studded indian cricket team. Pakstani team will perform better. I am not seeing much hope for Indian team against Australia.
