In 2007 MS Dhoni led a young team to a famous victory which nobody thought but the determination and the prayers of the people gave them energy. After that victory the Indian team has not been able to reach the semi finals of the next three editions played in England, West Indies and Sri Lanka.

All the teams in the group have quality spinners which can put pressure on the batsman.

In yesterday match against the Pakistan the score of 245 was not good enough but the Indians gave their all and Shaid Afraidi heroics with the bat gave them the win. In the past four months both our batting and bowling has not clicked as a unit but i think India can comeback in this Asia cup and i hope in the coming matches the low ranked team can beat the higher rank sides.
