Decimated

At the start of the Future CUp, when Ponting said "Twenty20 is history, India are getting carried away", every Indian cricket fan must have been incensed, and it was a perfect stage for the Indians to prove that actions speak louder than words.

The last match at Kochi had raised some hopes of an Indian revival, but today's annihilation showed that India are back to where they began.
