Upset!

Today India lost to Sri Lanka making it virtually certain they are out of the Super 8s. That means two of the powerhouse squads; India and Pakistan are out.

The loss of these teams also affects the economic outcome of this tournament as they are the cricketing regions with the biggest population. The Media networks who vied for control of the World Cup coverage to these regions and thir cricket hungry fans must be losing millions and the Caribbean will probably see a few less tourists as the result of their departure as well.

As well one can only feel sad for the Indian players knowing that their fans will not take this loss lightly. One thing is certain effigies will be burned lets hope the fans don't go any further than that .

What a day!
