I was expecting that they will be giving chances to youngsters but it was really surprising for me that they were having only one change today (Only Deepak Chahar got chance). It was expected to have multiple changes in both bowling and batting order and some people predicted like Rohit to lead the pointless match but India played like they are still in competition.

It is not a big surprise that we did not see any major changes in the team even though it was a meaningless one, the sole reason is the backlash they will get back home for not getting qualified and they need to play and satisfy the fans that the two looses were just bad luck and they played the last three matches as champions but they did that against lower level competition and these performances is more than enough to satisfy their die hard fans Cheesy

This combination might be exciting in management levels but India is already got lots of talents but for example, in this worldcup also only their toss and luck factors played the spoiler role. So, I guess Dravid and Dhoni got no big tasks ahead.

Toss was one of the factor for their loss but team selection is another major factor and lack of match experience as a team before the T20 World Cup. Pakistan played as a team and they are the only undefeated team in the tournament.

Very well played team India. They have shown incredible improvement at the time of their exit. If they had played better in their opening matches then the situation would have been completely different. I understand there were certain factors involved like the toss but the biggest factor that led to this situation was the overconfidence of the Indian team.

Agreed, over confidence is the big mistake that Indian team had. During the days before the match of India majority of the media took this into discussion. The headlines were something as will Pakistan withstand the performance of India. This hype given by media too is a reason for having over confidence.

West Indies in the past have faced similar situation in 1983 world cup finals against India. The score was just 183 which was is reachable, but the over confidence made them loss the match scoring 140. By that time West Indies is the top team.
