India's World Cup Triumph

Well it looks to be the end of the world cup 2007 journey for India, untill and unless there is a miracle tomorrow and Bermuda beats Bangladesh. HAHAHA....Now we have to depend on Bermuda to give us an entry in the Super 8. A big WOW to the cricket gods of India Tendulkar, Gangul, Dravid, Sehwag, Dhoni and more than that to the millions of people of India who were struck to their TV screens waiting them to reach the target which always looked very well achievable. But never during the match with Sri Lanka it looked like India was fighting for the lost pride, they never looked like they can ever be the world champion with their present attitude.
We have been talking about this world cup probably being the last one for Tendulkar, Ganguly and Dravid, and if that is the case yesterday's match was the last for them in the world cup. I wonder if this thought ever came to their minds that they need to show why 100 million people have been praising them and worshiping them for years. They had to fire, they had to hold their ground, rotate the strike and all the good things in the cricket book that the commentators keep on talking about. But look at them Tendulkar in the last match of his last world cup gets out on ZERO by a bowler who has probably not played even one-fourth of the match played by Tendulkar, Dhoni never knew where the ball pitched, Ganguly playing a shot in air as if going for Gilchrist style.
I do not want to discuss at great details of what team India did wrong, their decisions, their strategies, the team composition and so many topics that we will be a part of hot discussion throughout India. People of all age group, income group, political interests or whatever differences will be surely disappointed and disheartened with what has happened.
The way they played I think they deserve to come back home at the earliest and go to exile.

The pic is what I received 2 days back as a forward and at that time laughed about it, but it has turned out to be a reality....
