THE INDIAN VICTORY CRUISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Johannesburg - India has beaten Pakistan by five runs in the Twenty20 final at the Wanderers on Monday.


The most awaiting T20 World cup has finally come to an end with India scalping the priceless cup.Its definitely an awesome feeling to raise the World cup in front of a sell-out crowd of 32,000 waving Indian and pakistani flags.
Initially when India won the toss and elected to bat first,I felt it would be a one sided game,as the field looked to serve as a welcome source for boundaries and sixes(Not the biggest field).But as the match started things were not going the right way,the bowling line up of Pakistan was really good,and the timing by our heroes were
not in favor of a great score.No one could really smash the ball to give a firing start.Wickets kept falling at regular intervals,but the runrate was always above 7(expected it to be above 8 throughout,expectations raised due to amazing game against Aussies).We then settled for a meagre score of 157/5 with Umar Gul doing the major damage.

The whole Indian team then started grinding their brains as to how the bowling line up should be,the field set up etc.......
The 2nd innings was a real throat to throat innings.We started off with RP Singh dismissing the opener cheaply.Hmmmmmmm but they managed to come back by smashing Sreesanth and Bajji to death,it was a real run treat for Pakistan when these two were handed the ball.The game changed all over when Pathan kept taking important wickets at regular intervals to balance the imbalanced,a great spell of 16/3 in 4 overs.
RP Singh no less to be praised,deserves all the adulation one gets while winning.

The final over:
With every Indian skipping his heart beat for the over,it seemed like a sure shot win for the Pakis when Misbah went for a giant six.Pressure all built on the Indian faces.......with Dhoni keeping his mind cool,with sensible thoughts and optimistic feelings gushing through his blood.Required was only 6 off 4 balls.2 runs from each of the 3 balls would have left the Pakistani flags flying high with pride leaving 1 more ball in hand,but Misbah the top run scorer of Pak proved to be foolish by striking a blind shot which left the ball landing safe in Sreesanth's hands.It was jubilation all over with Indian flags high up and Pakistani flags disappearing slowly from the crowds..........
The last ball left the entire nation burning crackers of joy,pride,patriotism and unity.All the pubs and public plazas were flooded with jubilant citizens celebrating the history repeated by this young Indian team.

The credit of batting goes to Gambhir who was glued to the crease with an amazing knock of 75 off 54 balls studded with 8 boundaries and 2 sixes who led the Indian victory cruise.Bowling wise it was Pathan and RP Singh at their best.............
Yuvi did all he could do to set India reach the top of the ladder.Mahender Singh Dhoni looks like THE BEST CAPTAIN.Team effort in simple words.............

MEN IN BLUE FINALLY ROCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
