Mission Accomplished! |
Kudos to team India!! The gem of an innings played by
Gautham Gambhir (meaning
'serious' in Sanskrit) and
Mahendra Singh Dhoni drove home the hosts in lifting the most coveted possession of the cricketing world,
ICC cricket world cup beating Sri Lanka by six wickets in the finals. After 28 years of title drought, Indian cricket fans celebrated this win out in the streets with much pomp and joy. Kudos to Indians who have once again proved they are the Number One in the world and the
Champions of World Cricket. The true class of world's most pwerful batting lineup was in full display as nearly two billion people across the globe watched the event on live television. The hosts put up a near clinical performance while chasing a not-so-easy total of 274 in a crunch game like this one, the final of the world cup and in the process they not only smashed few bats as the ball is smacked over the rope, but also proved most illustrious of the
'cricket pundits' wrong, the so called
orthodox Australian pundits whose
gut feelings always sided with
Sri Lanka.
