Twenty20 World Cup 2007 FINAL - India Vs Pakistan

What a match it was! It made my day, week, month and the year. Year started off when I bought an LCD TV just to watch the world cup in March. Got pained seeing the sight of India getting kicked out of world cup then. But, what a turn around it was for the youngsters barring the Tendulkars, Gangulys and Dravids in the fast paced form of the game. Needless to say, I AM DELIGHTED!!

Mostly optimistic, but being a little practical too, I got pissed off watching the IBNlive videos of the cricket discussion with Chris Cairns, Kris Srikanth and others after the marvellous victory over the ever proud Aussies. They were getting too carried away then. I am sure they would also be speechless watching the course of the game during the FINALS of T20 at Johannesburg, SA.

But whatever it be, in the end it was a rollercoaster ride. Superman at SIX flags would only come second to this match. India just WON the cricket WORLD CUP!!!! Yeah, it is CRICKET
