#3 The 2007 World Cup debacle could have been avoided
The team that had travelled to the West Indies led by Rahul Dravid was a powerhouse but they were low on morale. That showed in their first game itself when India lost against minnows Bangladesh by five wickets.
They rallied back strongly against Bermuda smashing a historic 413. But then they were on the floor again versus Sri Lanka.
In the must-win game, India lost by 69 runs after the islanders had set them a target of 254/6. The loss also ousted India from the group stage which no cricket fan would have even dreamt off in their wildest dreams.
