It’s like perching at the top of Mt. Everest or setting your foot on the moon….err perhaps it’s much more than that. What a World Cup we’ve had…..I really don’t know how to start this blog and I am groping for words to describe the feeling I have.
Dhoni, the gambler, made 2 game changing decisions. First was picking Sreesanth ahead of Ashwin which tilted the match in Sri Lanka’s favor even before the 1st ball was bowled. 2nd was Dhoni coming ahead of Yuvraj to play a match winning innings under pressure and thereby compensating his ridiculous erroneous decision of picking Sreesanth. Finally, allz well that ends well.
The youngest in the squad Kohli summed it all up “Sachin carried the Indian cricket on his shoulders for 21years. It’s time we carried him”. I thought it was quite a great statement he made.
For a fact that a home victory has never been achieved, India had to win.
For a fact that 1.2Billion + people shouldn’t be disappointed, India needed to win.
For a fact that we played with a lot of passion, commitment and purpose, India deserved to win.
For a fact that Sachin Tendulkar has carried the hopes of entire nation for the last 21 years, India owes this WC to him.
India and Tendulkar have waited for 28 years for this day…….finally it’s a dream come true for all of us.
What an incredible feeling we all have :-)
Let the party begin !!!
