Team aise hi nahi jeet tee... What a win. What a memorable afternoon - evening. This World cup shall be all the more memorable because we watched it together with our families - Nagender, Tyagi, Sunil, Ajay and of course Anam. We watched the India-Pak semi final also. The only difference between both was the drinks being downed. In the semi-final, the pakistani wickets came with the pegs being downed. Anam nearly reached the hospital, trying to get all the pakistani batsmen out. Yesterday, we began as usual. But as with Pakistan, our wickets started coming down with each peg. We stopped drinking till Dhoni finished the game with a six! It was a heady feeling. I don't remember the 1983 World Cup. I don't even remember having watched it on a TV. This time it was different. We watched it on a multi-media projection, courtesy Ajay. Lets hope India and supporters like us can put together the same act next time, in 2015, when we beat the Aussies in Australia to lift the Cup once more.
It was also the first world cup for our Aadya. Here's looking forward to her celebrating many more such Indian triumphs!
