i have only said "i don"t think india is going to win the world cup" not because i do not want india to win but i don"t see that professionalism that aussies have.
south africa ranked no.1 in ranking i don"t agree with that either.
new zeland team players can"t perform in tense situations.

Since cricket is a game of uncertainties as has been proved on many occasions, nothing can be predicted for sure about the outcomke of a tournament in advance.
While South Africa and Australia are hot favourites top win the world cup, even their victory cannot be guaranteed as the present form does not matter and what matters is the form during the world cup. Whichever country play to their potential consistently stand a chance to win the world cup. As it stands all the top 8 teams sgtand a chance to win the world cup[.

So what you mean by the team lacks professionalism? I think they are all professionals but the selectors lack the professionalism in selecting the best 11 players to represent the country in the matches they play. It seems to me that each player has the backing of the lobbyists who influence the entire selection process. Then we have people like Kiran More who are more interested in settling their personal scores at the cost of national interest. The Indian cricket control board should be all professionals hired just like the corporations hire the best in business to compete in the market. In a country of one billion people with a majority of cricket loving people it's a shame that we can't find the good enough players to beat tiny countries like Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
I disagree with you that India is not going to win the world cup. If Greg Chappell and Dravid select the most suitable team for each ODI during the tournament, India can beat any team including Australia and South Africa.

Don't be pessimistic let us hope for the India's triumph. Cricket is a game of glorious uncertainty so anything can happen at any time, the present team is a good one and they will do better let us hope for the best.

The indian team might just surprise you
India have everything and more
The team of 2007 is very steady.
Factors helping India -
The best indian team going for the World Cup after the 1983 Presidential Cup. India has found good openers in Ganguly and Uthappa, with Sehwag in there too. Yuvraj, Dravid, Dhoni and Tendulkar steady the middle order to form one of the best middle order batting. Lower middle order of Kumble, Harbhajan, Zaheer can hit a few runs too.
As on bowling - Zaheer and Sreesanth/Munaf Patel will be opening and are not as bad. Kumble, Harbhajan and Sachin - Sehwag can bowl many spin overs between them. That leaves one guy extra. He can be employed as a strike bowler - Irfan/Sreesanth or Dinesh Kaarthick as the 11th guy. Irfan can bat as well.
It is a very powerful batting line-up, and make take a beating on their bowling lineup.
Quality Fielders are in plenty - Yuvraj, Uthappa, Sachin, Kaarthick. Fielders like Munaf Patel will have to be hided on the field.
There are all winning chances for India. India will reach the semi-finals for sure.
India have enjoyed a great run in previous world cups as well.
In 1979 we were almost through to semis. In 1983 we won the cup. In 1987 we were in the semis. In 1996 we were in semis (because of indian crowd, match given to Sri Lankans). In 1999 we beat Pakistan (who earlier beat Australia). Then in 2003 we reached the finals.
Somethings which India need to work on to improve for the World Cup 2007 in the Caribbean -
Every Indian Player Has To Think About The Country Not Individual.
Play As A Team
Making of Master Game plan before every match
Play Mind games With Every Team
Good Net Practice Before Every Match
Relaxation Techniques
Good Fielding
Players Should Be Absolutely Fit Before Every Match

INDIA IS DEFINITELY going to win this world cup becoz,team India is a mixture of talented players with youth and experience,they had proved it earlier and will do it again,team Australia is on the back foot due to failures at home and symonds injury,pakis also with internal problems and south Africa is not at very shape that's physically they are not very fit as reports say,so i think India is the hot favourite.

I think I am not over confident. India will win the World Cup. Australia is not in good form. South Africa and New Zealand flinch in big games. Pakistan is already without Shoiab, Asif and Razzaq. West Indies, Sri Lanka, and England are not good enough as they were earlier. India is in good shape with comparatively good team and form. INDIA WILL WIN THE WORLD CUP.

You are right Pakistan is going to win this world cup, thats why the Aussies have made it sure by issuing statments that Shoaib and Asif do not play the world cup, if Hayden and Symonds are such great players then why the fear of the pacy trio of Pakis.
