Good for us ....

Yes, I am also one of those who is not feeling bad at all about the loss of our team @ World Cup ...

And for me its not about more work hours ... nor money retained .... but about attitude ... attitude of people.. the sportiveness in people ...

Now they get a chance to think about what sport is all about ... the same people who have garlanded the team are burning their effigies ... !!!
And I would say its not the problem with the Team .. they have performed what they can .... but its the people who have assumed high things for a team not soo competent .. and created problems for themselves ....

Can you imagine our crowd appreciating the opponent team for a boundary or six ?? !!! or at least for a century !!... not possible ... but if you see the crowd at England .. I have seen them appreciate the century of Indian team also !! .. and felt good about it .... that's sportsmanship ... lets appreciate Bangladesh for their good play .. and empathize with Indian team for not being able to perform ...

Appendix:
Sportsmanship is an attitude that strives for fair play, courtesy toward teammates and opponents, ethical behavior and integrity, and grace in losing.
Empathy is defined as one's ability to recognize, and feel the emotion of another.
