| Victory |
This is about the superb victory of India over Pakistan in the Hutch Cup...We won the series in 4-1 lead....Today's match in Karachi was both sweet and bitter.Initially wen I saw the Indian team tat was going to play today I was both shocked and happy.The Biggies in the team were glaringly absent and the team consisted of a very young squad led by an exp captain.On the other side too certain plyers absence was welcoming.I kept telling my brother tat if we can win a match with this squad then it will boost the confidence of our team..
In the begining wen Pak was batting and scoring a lot of runs I sat in the edge of my chair waiting for wickets to fall.When wickets started fallin finally, the damage had already been done.The final score was a staggering 286(cool).
When Indians came out to bat,it began as a very slow game and progressed to b so.When Yuvaraj came into bat,things started to cook up...ppl began running in the field and the ball began crossing the boundary.When Dravid got out,I was both happy and sad.Happy cos he was playing too slow to reach the total and his leavin would let Dhoni in.Sad cos it was yet another wicket and a very experienced one ,lost for the Indians.
But as usual Dhoni stole the show with 4 sixes and 6 fours...the last over alone had 2 of those sixes.Thus the lucky pair(Dhoni and Yuvraj) brought victory to the Indians.Yuvi was both MAN OF THE MATCH an SERIES.
when Dravid was asked about Dhoni and Yuvraj at the end of the match, he said tat,Yuvraj had taken batting to new levels and Dhoni was a spl player with exceptional talents.(hehehe its nice to hear tis)
It was a good show by the Indians....hope this will continue. |
