The excuse kids are to land in Mumbai on Nov 5, 2009 for a full fledged series against India. 3rd in 12 years. In this duration they have visited BD 5 times and Zimbabwe 5 times. They have visited SA once and Australia 2 times. In powerful countries they have won 0 times.
They are not expected to win a single Test this series too. They have already set themselves for an excuse when they lose Tests 0-3 and T20s 0-2. We would be considerate to let them a win ODI as we believe in "Atithi devo bhavah". So when they go back, their leading men would rant character stuff and pride. And they would blame conditions, winter, pitches and food. Food when they would stay in 5 or 7 star hotels in each venue they play.
When they would play a Test on Brabourne, first in 36 on that ground, they would stay in South Mumbai. Food of South Mumbai would be bad ? We can imagine. Wont mention the name of the hotels for obvious reasons (11/26). No country till date has complained about the food in those hotels, this lads even before landing have made noises about the food.
When they go to Ahmedabad, they would face cold. Not like England though, but certainly better than SL. Does SL see cold ? So they would obviously blame cold for the loss. And pitch for the Kanpur test. Lol.
Sangakara is an intelligent man. He has vision. He thought of perfect excuses for the rout.
Weather in Ahmedabad.
Food in Mumbai
Pitches in Kanpur
No other captain would give a precise thought for the excuses before hand. But this lad has. A team which gets 3 new comers every series and drops 4 after every series is looking for a win in the country when they have never won a session in 14 Tests.
More of character rants and pride talk to come in Indian newspapers in next 2 months. Wonder how would Hindi newspapers publish Sangakara's interviews :
"Humari team ka charitra bahut ooche star par hai. Hum chahte he ki hum har match jeete aur apna charitra dikhaye. Humari team yuva hai aur sabka charitra saaf hai".
Lol.
