That’s a sentence I thought I might never say!
That punch of Dhoni’s that was sent high into the stands, brought a billion dreams come true. And those of some old souls who didn’t live to see. This is big! This is the World Cup and yes, it’s true. India have won it!
This team, ably coached by Gary Kirsten et all, has given us many wonderful memories. From Perth to Wankhede, it’s been a wonderful journey. Not a roller coaster ride, but a smooth nearly blipless one. Thanks to Kirsten and co. Thanks to Dhoni for the cool headed leadership. Today, not even the harshest MSD critic would have a gripe in saying that he deserved the man of the match, perhaps more than any other time – for Tendulkar yesterday did what he normally does in tournament finals and deciders for over a decade. Thanks to the young team for bringing us all this joy! But let us not forget those who, since ’99, have sown the seeds for this victory in spirit. I still feel bad about 2003, but this is not the day for that!
This day, we celebrate!
And yes, this victory is for the people of India!
Cheers Team India! Vande Matharam!
VM\'s Random Ramblings 
VM,
Cheers! No TV issues this time? 🙂
Thankfully, no. I managed it by giving it 15 min breaks every hour. And thanks for the reading the previous ramble! 🙂
Dhoni hasn’t forgotten those who sowed the seeds for this victory…A lot of us haven’t either, VM. Three cheers for the Team!!
True, Megha. That was very heartening to hear from MSD.
