Yet again a nail bitting finish by MSD

It's again a spring season with IPL season is on and all the teams have almost completed the half of their elimination stage matches. RCB stands first on the table with 6 won of 8 matches, with Chris Gayle’s sudden sprout run rate to his team.  Chennai super kings also placed second on the table, despite of some nail biting finishes.

 
 

One should be confused by looking at the strategies of CSK, In every match they chase, they would give the confidence level to the opposite team during 16-18 over’s. Suddenly there is some miracle happening and the csk sees none but the victory. It's again a nail biting match finish from CSK captain yesterday. 67 runs from 37 deliveries, includes 7 fours and 4 sixes. Initially the team a good start with a decent partnership between M.Hussey and M.Vijay, later as the game proceeded wickets started fumble at regular intervals and the key batsman couldn't cope with the target. But there was a little hope to the home team, as the captain cool still stayed at the grease.

 

There was a stage where they needed run rate of 16 and the most hoped batman wicket went down as he tried for some big shots. Dhoni at the other end tries to capitalize the score by playing a brilliant innings.  The captain being a best finisher in the all formats of the game, once again ended the match in style. Undoing umpire’s decision in the last over for signaling the wide ball has proven his sportsmanship and the way he handled the situation at the end, without any pressures and excitement at the end, shows his leadership. This youth generation should learn certain qualities from such a class player.

INDIAN CRICKET TEAM - 2011 WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS

It was a wonderful innings by India which made them champions of the world. Earlier in the day, Sri Lankans had set a massive target against Indians with their captain scoring century. The team walked to the dressing room with good confidence. The commentator adds fuels to the Indians audience out there. Post lunch break Indians had worst start of the match losing two important wickets earlier. It was the dream for sachin tendulkar to play in his home ground. Every one's expectations was whether sachin could post a century and matches 100's hundred in cricket carrier, but every dream was broken by mallinga. Later kohli and dhoni played their part very well, scoring cautious singles and lead team India to win. It was the yuvraj Singh who gave company to the Indian captain and gained the momentum towards the end. harbhajan Singh, zaheer khan and most of the team mates where filled with tears. This could be the best which they thought and hope their dreams true. Indians have won the world cup in 1983 previously in the captaincy of kapil dev. but now with the young team and dhoni's luck this team have achieved their glorious moments. It was not the dream for the Indian cricket team and for the 1.2 billion people who believes this game as their religion. In my words, nothing can get bigger than this; I witnessed this match from Sweden, Halmstad University. So things which I have i remember in my life time.
