Is it another coincidence?
IPL -2 was supposed to be the launch pad for an Indian team making its way to the top of the pile. They did end up top of the pile...but an inverted pile. Injuries to their main players during the IPL meant that we did not have our favored XI...
Deja Vu... it still is early days but the scene is almost like a pick-off from an SRK reincarnation movie. This time the injuries are more...Dhoni, Gambhir, Yusuf...are we the prickly twigs or are we injury prone close to big events?
Question marks revolve around the reasons behind having an IPL tournament breathing down the world cup's neck or having two world cups back-to-back. And yes, the ever-ready answer from the selectors injuries are part and parcel of the game make sure that the blame is not on the IPL.
Coincidence??? Whatever it is, it does not augur well...However, the twilight in the whole episode is that we have injuries at the beginning of the tourney which means the players have good time to recurperate...did some one say optimitic?
