Chak de India!!!!!!

Chak de
Chak de
Chak de India.

Really a fantabulous win for India. World cup win is always going to be special. The energy, the enthusiasm, the passion, the expression, the agility which were missing in the Dravid's captaincy, is back again. The series started with lightening and ended with storm. Each game of india was dramatically close and electrifying. India deserves to be the winner of this inaugural T20 World championship.

It was raining like anything for last 2 days in Kolkata. We have not been able to take food in our flat because Maid was not able to come in windy rain. Head count in IBM was abysmal. Between 4 PM t0 5PM, most of the IBMers headed to their home to watch the match. We got a projector in sustain area to watch the encounter live.
But I couldn't resist myself from going home(room) to relish the match. I buy some snacks and joined with my roomates. Till then Yusuf Pathan already hit a six. I tried different variation (totkas) but in vain. Yuvarj got out cheaply. Just before 3rd last over I changed the black wallpaper of my mobile to Walkman' wallpaper. From there on match was ON. India compiled 30 runs in last 3 overs.

As I predicted during the match, Jogendra Sharma played a crucial role in India's world Cup win. Match was full of drama. Just before Malik departure, our cable got disconnected due to bad weather. We started listening the match live commentary on Prakash radio. We got the news that Malik is out. Just then, Dwiti who was on mobile talking to his sister, informed us that pakistan lost 6th wicket. We thought that they wrongly thinking of 5th as 6th. But when radio confirmed this, we got ecstatic. After 15 minute signal started coming.

In the last over of the match, 2nd ball, we thought that Misbah mis-hit the ball, but that was not to be as the ball sailed over long of for six. Next ball, we thought that it is going to be four, but again for our (this time) pleasant surprise, ball went down the throat of Sreesanth. We all went berserk. Inida...India......Indiaaaaaaaaaaaa. We yelled at top of our voice. For next few minute, the drama continued.

We ordered cake, rosogulla and other stuffs and enjoyed the night while watching reaction of the public.
