hi friends.
just recently read an article on KP and he had a lot to say.
he said that their schedule before world cup is a very tiring one.
had to play test series and then another 7 one day matches and by the time the world cup arrives,they are dead beat.
he even went further and said that it was because of the scheduling that england never won the world cup till now.
i may have been sympathetic to KP until i realised that the aussies were going through the same grueling series and not complaining at all.
what do you think?

Dear Stardust,
This is KP that we are talking about. He always has a lot to say. When the English won the Ashes, he had given some unwanted comments then too...!!!
We must all understand that he has issues...!!! May be, he had a troubled childhood or may be he is still a child.. (:P)

Hi
Yeah, i do agree with KP. The players should be given sufficient rest before such an important tournament so that they are both physically and mentally fit and can peak at the right time. It is not only physical fatigue but mental fatigue that also has to be given consideration.

That is no excuse at all. Every team now a days has to slog out similarly. Why only Australia what about India what about South Africa or for that matter Pakistan and even New Zealand everybody was playing until recently. English people always have got the habit of giving excuses for their non performance. Fact of the matter is except for the first world cup that was in 1975, they never looked like winning the cup. Even this year despite their winning Ashes series I don't think they have got any chance to win the cup.
