Popular Post Mariyam Posted November 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2023 Imma start by saying that the experience was a lot more fun than I expected it to be. And the match was close to the point of being enjoyable. NZ were never really in it, but they weren't out of it till over 37-38. All in all, I maintain my 100% record at the Wankhede. The final in 2011 against SL. The group stage game earlier this month against SL. And now the SF against NZ. Adding some of the many pics for your viewing pleasure: Always gives me goosebumps^^ The guy on the bottom left in the blue formal shirt reminds me of Kumble and his bowling action. Can anyone identify all the celebs? A clearer picture... Identify the man in black!!! urbestfriend, coffee_rules, Nikola and 20 others 3 15 5 Link to comment
Mariyam Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 Guys how do I upload the videos? Link to comment
Mariyam Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 Sorry @Trichromatic @Malcolm Merlyn. I tried. I really did. It was a frenzied rush once it was confirmed that India were playing at the Wankhede. And the club was interested in handing over tickets at 8x the price. They weren't offering too many to existing members. Lord, velu and Vijy 1 1 1 Link to comment

Mariyam Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 This was a far better experience vis a vis the 2011 final. Much more relaxed. People were happier and in general more confident than in the 2011 final. That final seemed like a stretch, but this game was breeze through. Speaking of which, there was a good amount of breeze courtesy November. But no post of mine is complete without me complaining. I purchased the Indian supporters jersey for the game. They had just one size and it was extremely loose. I looked and felt ridiculous. The 2011 jersey was designer wear compared to this. In retrospect I should have worn that one. Also, since we could source 3 tickets , in spite of having requisitioned for a lot more, it was me, the mr and his friend who ended up going. 3 is a terrible number. The friend totally third wheeled the whole evening. We were seated: the friend: Mr: me and I felt so left out that at some point I had to exchange places with the Mr. But all that aside, It was a fun game. NZ almost gave us a scare. But I was confident we were winning. And winning easy. We are so winning the final. SA or Aus won't even run us this close. coffee_rules, BacktoCricaddict, putrevus and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment

First of all, I may be old but I ain't no purist ;-). And I couldn't spot Viv Richards in any of the pics. As far as I know the Viv Richards is old and bald and I don't see any old, bald Afro-Caribbean looking guys in any of the pictures. But then again, I am not known for my observational skills.

And @Mariyam despite all her humility does not even deny that she is page 3 level big shot socialite. Socho asal mein kya hogi. I heard Nita Aunty and @Mariyam go shopping together.
