Hip Hip Hurray :)

I am composing the post just a few minutes after India made history , after they went on to win the Twenty-20 World Cup and gave us perhaps the most cherishable moment of the game for the whole century.

The under-dogs became dark horses and then the dark horses became favourites and then favourites became champions, Thats how Team India scripted their T20 outings in South Africa.

With least expectations riding on the team Dhoni and his men did nothing but enjoy their game each and every moment till the last pakistani wicket fell to rewrite history books.

The fact that makes the victory more special is that it came against arch-rivals Pakistan though they played really well to give us all a nail biting finish.

Two teams who were chucked out of the ICC ODI World cup barely a few months back, have now come over the odds to go to the helm of the game.

Look whom they have crushed en route to winning the cup Pakistan,South africa,Australia and Pakistan.....Wow what a journey it has been , simply impeccable.

The men in blue averaging just 24 in age brought us all an unforgettable moment of pride by becoming champions in this new format of the game. The young bloods showed great deal of aggression and passion and now they have reached the pinnacle.

The whole country of more than a billion has erupted in joy and celebrations galore all over.
Setting aside the bitter past , the political flim-flams, the national problems and all our worries, of each and every Indian, this victory has flooded all with extreme joy.

Team India you deserved the cup and you have made us all proud.

Chak De India !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please bear with me if I had erred as you all know I am writing in a mood of great jubilation :)
