A Great day in many ways - 19 Dec 2008. India recorded a historic win or rather, prevented the Aussies from writing history, riding on India's shoulders. Till the close of the day, it looked like tailenders were on the way towards taking Australia to a win, chasing the total of 413, a feat that had remained unparalled since 1948. Also, the Aussies were to be the only team to have won 17 test matches on a trot, if they would have won. Young talent like Ishaan Sharma need to be nurtured and developed. Can we now dare to think of taking on the rest of the world and winning more than 16 matches in one go?
Yesterday was also a first of sorts at work. We had a great in house party with just a couple of guests. Unlike the normal humdrum, boring 'sitting around having drinks and gossiping' parties, we had games, we danced and we had fun and spent the evening doing things that were way apart from the usual cribbing and whining! Our ladies too danced and played the party games with gusto. The spirit of the day permeated through our gathering. Here's wishing more such fine times for the nation and for us.
