India (one win and two losses) has two matches left and both are against front runners Cuba (one loss to Russia and two wins) and Russia (undefeated). The top four teams in each Pool will advance to the next stage, and India will have to show some magical powers to finish in the top four in Pool A.

Yes Bhushan loss againsr Serbia was crucial ... Now we r finding ourselves in no-man's land ... And need miracle to pull victory against Cuba or Russia.

What happened to the Indian team?

[jaydeep]

I was expecting losses against Russia, Cuba and Korea ... But lost against Serbia and Montenegro was surprising one ... But still we were having chance of qualifying as 4th team, if Morocco managed to beat Serbia and Montenegro with 3-0 margin .. But now all is over ...
