We have a chance, but not one based on which we can say with absolute certainty that we can win.

As I said in the previous post, we are was too inconsistent to say for sure that we can win.
We can't say with certainty that we will win, but we definitely can win i.e have a chance.

And this debate was always centred around current form, talentwise even previous sides could've won. Are you like doubting the talent of this team?
Nope. The consistency.

See, you use the can with "definitely" and that's what I don't agree with.

But the consistency has only been improving in tests...and right now it has reached a high level.

We definitely have a chance! :wacko: Then there's inconsistency and the rest. But we definitely have a chance.

Your "We can win a series outside Asia" sounds as if you're absolutely sure that next series we play outside Asia, we can win.

I say "we might" because it's more of a 50-50 or less, but not more chance, and not the 100% chance that your sentence seems to suggest.

Your'e confusing yourself....but anyway all I'm saying is we now have a chance to win a series outside asia on current form. Earlier the writing used to be on the wall that we would fail. But now this team is strong enough to be in with a chance.

No, I'm not.

I'm clear in my mind - we can't say for sure that we can win, because of inconsistency etc.

Dude I can read you needn't enlarge everything :cool: , it's becoming an eyesore. And it's fine, all in all we both think the same. Too much unnecessary confusion.

No, you're being over-confident, while I'm being realistic. :p

No I'm just confident that the team can do well, it's not unrealistic. You are being skeptical and a little pessimistic. You wanna wait and see the performance over 10 years and then decide whether they will be consistent enough. Even i'm not convinced they can be very consistent, but they have it in them to win away from home. If our team remains stable without so any injuries, only then will we be consistent.
