ludhianvi Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Wohoo... What a match ! Sehwag started with a bang and took Gul to the cleaners. Then it was a lucky day for Tendulkar as Pakistan kept on dropping him as many as 4 dropped catches and ironic that it was the UDRS that first saved him as well. Credit to Tendulkar for keeping on going. And it was the defining knock to be honest in the end. Wahab bowled really well today. He's athletic, has a good runup and release. I see a bit of Zak in him. Gul was derailed by Sehwag and could never recover. The spinners : AFridi, Ajmal, and Hafeez all did well and overall Pakistan would've been happy to restrict India to 260 odd. Raina stringed some partnerships in the end and did well to get it past 250. Pakistan openers Hafeez and Akmal started confidently and were going well before Zak struck. First down. Munaf came on and bowled a beautiful cutter that deviated considerably off the deck and I thought Munna would play an important role here. And in the end Munaf along with Nehra did their job. Yuvi chipped in yet another two crucial wickets and Harbhajan under much criticism got Akmal Jnr and Afridi at important junctures in the match. And Nehra bowled like the way he did in the last year at the death bowling yorkers. Pakistan and Misbah fall short yet again They did well to reach the semis and would rue their dismal catching in the end..Catches win Matches.. a bit cliched but hey it's true. Well Done India!! Winners at Mohali!! Chak de Fatteh! Chak de India!!! Off to Mumbai for the Finals :yess:

Schickelgruber Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Good luck India! India should now go on to win the World Cup and there is nothing more I would like to see than Sachin lifting the trophy in his hometown. I am fully behind India and I wish they go on to win it. Good luck India :isalute:

ravishingravi Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Thankfully Worst Nightmare has been averted I was actually quite turned by the absolutely wall to wall coverage and hype over this match in India. But over the last couple of days talking to a lot of people in Mumbai, more than India losing to Pakistan the thought Of Pakistan winning the WC in Mumbai esp. after the events of 26/11 were unthinkable. I actually had not thought of it before but it is true. The scars of the city have not healed yet and there would have been unsavoury incidents from the audience had Pakistan been playing. Mumbai crowds are tough to handle at best of times.
NareshK Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Another thing averted is Paki trolls coming up here and boasting about their victory and asking if anyone's going to support Pakistan in the finals. That would have really got to me.
