Sure Zainub, I agree, that possibility is always there with our team, and I have learnt never to discount it

However, the key question is that why have our players, for quite a few years now, not had this winning mentality, or apetite for runs? Why do they often end up playing just to confirm their seat on the team-bus, and not to actually help the team win matches?
