I am an Indian and I have always been Proud of it!! On the 2nd of April 2011, it was justified by a bunch of 15 players and their very strong support staff, by achieving one common dream of 1.21 billions of a cricket frenzy nation - WINNING THE WORLD CUP (2011). No cricket fan can ask for more. The Man himself (SRT) has admitted that there can't be anything bigger in his cricketing life. That is the magnanimity of the achievement!!
This edition of WC was for SRT, by SRT and finally To SRT!! What a fittingly deserved realization it was, for him!! Something that he was denied for 21 years for lack of self belief and commitment from the whole of the team - this one man army has finally lived his moment of utmost glory and passion - a very well compiled and executed act by the team. Proven!! - a team game is never less or more than the team itself.
Kudos to the entire Indian team for getting there to the pinnacle of their cricketing lives and to have absorbed the amount of pressure they were under throughout the tournament, is something else!! A Tribute to the Cricketing God - one and only Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, it will remain a piece of unforgettable, one of the most emotional and cherished moments of my life - the winning SIX from MSD.
Albeit, I lacked expression to let out the joy and emotion as I was in a not so accommodative environment at work. I can feel it suppressed inside me - all it needs is one burst and the relief would be wonderful (have to wait for that till the time I land in Hyd though). Missed my family and friends :( Love ya all!! Would have been a journey watching with you all.
Jai Hind!!
