Unfortunately cricket is given way too much importance here. Tennis is finally picking up after the emergence of Sania Mirza. Hockey, which used to be popular is also given less importance these days. The media is partly to blame for that, since they idolise the cricketers & leave the players of others sports out...\n\nAlso, politics has crept into sports as well. Really good players might be dropped from the team, & the ones who have the influence & are thick with the selectors will find a way in...\n\nHopefully by the end of the next decade things should change (though personally I don't see it happen), & India atleast qualifies for the World Cup!

India????\n\nAt present Austrlia is a very professional team.\n\nPakistan has a professional coach who has shown results, the team is depandant on whole of the team.\n\nSouth Africa is hard working.\n\nIndia is playing with youngesters.\n\nEngland has gone through some set back but is likely to recover.\n\nWest Indies is not so good but Lara is coming back.\n\nOn the whole Pakistan and Australia are likely to play final. \n\nHowever, there should be no politics, as it happened in recent India Pakistan series.

WINS AND LOSES ARE QUITE NATURAL.\nBUT...\nWHEN A TEAM REPEATEDLY FAIL IN ABROAD, THATS AN ALARMING ISSUE WHICH NEEDS ATTENTION.\n\nI THINK BRINGING GANGULY WILL NOT HELP MUCH TO WIN WC'07.\nTHE EXISTING PLAYERS SHOULD PLAY RESPONSIBLY.\nTHEIR ATTITUDE IS ONE 50 RUNS IS ENOUGH TO FORGET 10 DUCKS.\nTHATS NOT A WINNING ATTITUDE.\n\nFIRST OF ALL CRICKETERS MUST BE RESTRICTED FROM AD APPEARANCES.\n2ND THING IS THE MUST PRACTICE DAILY INSTEAD OF 15 DAYS PRACTICE CAMPS BEFORE EVERY TOUR.\nTHOSE WHO FAILED TO ATTEND PRACTICE SESSIONS MUST BE THROWN OUT.

Seemingly no! Batting is the main worry. If it clicks India stands a chance or it will be a complete whitewash.

Take it from past ;\n\nFrom first world cup in 1975 to world cup 2003, we indians won the cup only once and appointed twice non indian coach for the job.It all started from John Wright, he failed in finals and now Greg Chappel's turn to prove as a winner coach. Lets hope for the best !!!!! \nAlmost 25 years we were played with Indian coachs, what was the outcome only once we won (world cup 1983). \nI think we need to wait for the time to conclude who is best Indian or non Indians coachs.

Any chances? Are u kidding? How can India go to World Cup without the best batsman Sachin? Sachin is out of form at present. Soon he will come back to form and he will be the star of next World Cup

By luck it is possible, If you evaluate current Indian team performance played in Champions trophy, we need to go long way. The way Indian team played in Champions Trophy, I think a big challenge in-front of coach Greg Chappel. \nVirender Shewag- Out of form and forget to play his natural game, he can do better as an optional opening batsman, Gautam Ghambhir is in form, Rotate both openers in every w/c match.\nSachin Tendulakar- Playing always under pressure to maintain his stand and popularity. He cannot score enough runs,he has to get out from his top class players frame of mind,\nRahul Dravid- A dependable captain and good player, he will score in w/c\nYuvraj Singh - I think he will bounce back with his form, no pressure on him.\nSuresh Raina - Too young to handle world cup pressure. Better to choose Sourav Ganguly.\nM.S.Dhoni - OK , he is all rounder, he can keep wickets and score at least few runs,\nIrfan Pathan - OK, he can do with bat at lower order and as bowler he has to do the main job.\nSreesanth- A good fast bowler, let him work on his plans and give a fair chance to maintain his stand in the team.\nHarbhajan Singh- OK, he is good bowler and handy lower order batsman.\nRamesh Power- I think we should go with Anil Kumble,\nMohd Kaif- A good fielder, out of form batsman, need to rotate with VVS Laxman.\nMunaf Patel- Munaf or Zaheer Khan

India have not lost last 8 consecutive ODI matches. India have won last 15 consecutive matches batting second & have broken the record of West Indies of 1985.\nYuvraj , Dhoni , Irfan , Raina are looking solid & I think India can win 2007 world cup against world champions South Africans. Though South Africa have good players India have world class players.

After every fall there is rise. Lara's career is in its last stages. The batsmen are going through their purple patch and soon they would vanish. In the WC 2007, you would not find WI in the limelight.

No. \n\nBut some dude mentioned cricket. I'm sorry but outside of India who cares about cricket? (OK so Australia is big on cricket and so is England, but really.) Funny but I can't find India anywhere near this year's World Cup tournament unless they're there taking notes.  Has India ever qualified for a World Cup Tournament? Do you guys even have a team? Wow! I guess you do! India is currently ranked 117th in the world out of 208 countries.  The only time that India qualified for a World Cup was in 1950--and that's because their scheduled opponents had to withdraw so they qualified by default.  So how did this soccer power dynamo do in the 1950 tournament?  I'm so glad you asked.  Several of their players refused to wear soccer boot/shoes (I guess shoes were not required in their soccer leagues, I don't know.)  So they withdrew from the World Cup.  Talk about sucking! Ooh but watch out for that Indian cricket team, they just beat Sri Lanka, Singapore, Pakistan, and Andorra.  Yes those very bastions of world sports. Yes, those world sports super powers.\n\nAs long as there is no big money to be made in American soccer, it will always lag behind the big three, NFL, NBA, and MLB.  The NHL is not as popular but it's more popular than soccer.  So while the rest of planet Earth waits for the World Cup final on 07/09/2006, most Americans will be counting down the days for the next episode of The Sopranos or American Idol!

CERTAINLY INDIA WILL DO BETTER THAN ODI SERIES.\n\nI HOPE INDIA WILL WIN ATLEAST ONE TEST.\n\nANYHOW, WINDIES WILL DOMINATE THE TEST SERIES TOO.

West indies will win, they are under new, inspired management(Lara).. india might win the next match but for me WI are strong favourites in the last 2 ODI's in trinidad!
