Frustrating and disappointing....

Yes, its about 3 a.m. and India just lost the 4th One Day International to England.

Disappointing because India lost yet another match but frustrating because India bowled very well but the same old thing - could not finish. Most of the time the reason has been that the Indian cricket team have been poor at finishing the great job they have been doing throughout the match.

After England was nearly out of the match at 114 for 7, they came back with a 100 run partnership for the 8th wicket to win the match. I wonder whether India has ever come out of such a situation strongly to win a match - probably I can count them on my one hand.

The other thing was a bad decision (and that also happens always against India) at about 172 / 7 when Stuart Broad was plumb in front, ball hitting the back leg by Piyush Chawla and of course the decision never went for India. That could have turned the match but well a disappointing end. Another frustrating point in the match!

Damn! Not a good feeling to go to bed with. Lets see what happens in the last 3 games - a miraculous performance can have India win this series now.

Chal bet karte hain..... India is not winning the series.... Rather, India might just win one more match, thats it.
Anything for it. Wassay???
