Cricket as seen these days has became a part of our feelings and not just a game like others. In no other field if you score 100 today you may score 0 the other day, if you take 5 or 6 wickets today you may go wicket-less the other day.No team performs better outside home. This is a truth that statistic will conform you.India was playing with the Aussies in 2011 at Ahmedabad which was a home ground and won the game. Here the pitch was definitely made to suit the home team . This must be the situation in the Australia. No wrong in that.
Looking in to the track records at the Sydney the team batting first won 67% matches. M.S.Dhoni lost toss there. Was it his mistake? The Aussies choose to bat first.Quite natural in two ways , firstly the pressure of batting second in a big match,secondly the psychology of the track records.Come to the history ,we face the Aussies 10 times in the World Cup encounters,won 3 and lost 7,in the Sydney cricket ground played15 won 1 and lost 13.The records were also not in our favour.Can any one forget the bitter experience of the the Australia-India series and the Tri-nation tournament.Thanks to the Dhoni brigade to make us proud wining 7 matches in the World Cup 2015 against various teams. Winning and loosing are the two sides of a coin, and we lost they won.More over we do not loose to a mino,and that too happens with big teams.Then why should there be a big hue and cry for the out comes? Why do not people accept both possibilities equally?
Some people raise Anuska-Birat factors.I think it is a same to peep through some one's personal life. Celebrities have their emotions and feelings like us.Will it be just if any one talk about your and mine personal life ? We should not connect cricket to this factor.We loose a match against a good team thats it.
