Despite looking underdog and outplaying in the second match of the four One-day series between India and West Indies...Team India wins the series by 2-1.
In this win Lord Indra played a main role by interrupting second and third matches, giving an advantage to second batting team by introduction of duckworth-louis rules.
I think dhoni's team was lucky with having rain interruption made 3rd one-day total like a T-20 match.
Actually many indian players (Gautam Gambhir, Rohit Sharma) were out of form despite couple of player's (Yuvraj Singh and M. S. Dhoni) look good. This West Indies tour is always been very tough for Indian team since its first tour...although series win meant quite lot for Team India.
Yuvraj Singh had a very good tour by score one hundred and being the second highest score scored by indian players in this test series.
So, the was quite successful with 2-1 score on the board.

TOUR WEST INDIES:
TEAM INDIA'S tour to West Indies, starts from 26th June, looking underdog.
By player's like Sachin Tendulkar, Virendra Sehwag, and Zaheer Khan not in the squad, looked as an young team, with only Ashish Nehra and R. P. Singh only who have toured here previously.
But they also did'nt played much here and were out of form at their previous tour of W. Indies.
Team India looking new in front of experienced and home playing team(W. Indies).The squad with RamNaresh Sarwan, ShivNarayan Chandrapaul, and Captain Chris Gayle (three star's) looks quite strong against indian young bowling attack having R. P. Singh, Praveen Kumar, and Pragyan Ojha. Also Indian players - Gautam Gambhir(known as indian run machine), Suresh Raina, and M. S. Dhoni are going through out of form.
All these crictics shows a young Indian teams being an underdog against a Carribean Nation.

IPL(next season) : Teams looking for Pakistani Players
Unpredictable win of pakistan player's, winning T-20 World Cricket Cup, increased their market value in the IPL cricket world and teams are looking forward to get them available in the next season.
Teams like Rajasthan Royals looking forward for players..Kamran Akmal and Sohail Tanvir to be available in the next season.This shows how much the teams are behaving as an opportunist..and preparing now onwards for the next season.
Despite,the pakistani players had not played previous IPL due to political conflicts between the two countries after 26/11 Mumbai bomb blasts. They were then allowed by the pakistani government to play in T-20 World Cup which was shifted to South Africa, but the decision was to late as all the team franchisee's took sof pakistani players already in the team.
The teams are quite desperate to have pakistani players to be in their teams squad for the next season.

TEAM INDIA looked OUT OF TRACK
Hello...everybody...I am AKSHAY DUBEY.
I am always a big and royal fan of Indian cricket team, with players like Yuvraj Singh, M. S. Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Virendra Sehwag ...who can brutalise any bowler of the world...anywhere, anytime...in any ground, any pitch...whatever may be the condition...,but the loss in T-20 world cup ...was a great surprise...to everybody, being the defending Champion, outplayed big matches.
Team India won its two league matches with small teams....bangladesh and Ireland seemed quite good combination in batting and bowling..when Zaheer Khan took four wickets, playing with Ireland after recovering from injury , team looked quite good and Rohit Sharma played a knock of 83 runs from 50 balls team looked with a good combination .But as we had a clash with big teams like W. Indies, England, and South Africa team our team looked standing on knees.
M. S. Dhoni being a caption did many blunders by making wrong decisions in crucial situations, causing Team India to loose the big matches. The decision of Irfan Pathan to stay out of main 11 players against England looked senseless as he took one wicket from 2 overs and gave only 9 runs. India's fielding also looked below standards with many miss fields done by very good players like yuvraj , and raina who always look fabulous in fielding department.
When India lost matches..and had enquiries why they lost so badly ...everybody blamed IPL(Indian Premiere League) and busy schedule of cricket. But busy schedule is of every cricket teams playing all format of cricket...this is excuse looked aimless.
Tilakratne Dilshan, who became the player of the series in T-20 World Cup also played in IPL and scored lots of runs in both tournament deceiving any tiriedness and busy schedule. Jack Kallis is another example of a player who scored tons of runs in both the tournaments.
By such example and critics, it is clear that Indian were not in the same touch as everybody expected and coach and captain should take the responsibility of loosing in the world cup by outplaying.
