Its been a week now since India created a history. The impact of that is shown in every Indian in every parts of India. The excitement was tremendous on the day of the India vs Pakistan semifinal. With India's performance I half wished India to win. However that day was memorable. There was an official mail the day before ,to wear the Indian jersey or any business casual just to cheer India. The office was half empty as many had taken the day off. During the lunch many left for their home. When it was around 2 pm somebody shouted India's gonna bat first. I felt nervous. The match started with our cafeteria being a movie theatre as many gathered there. Many gathered in the conference room and watched the match on the projector..We started watching it on someone's system as he just connected via the internet. Our tech support team told us not to call them after 2 p.m. As Shehwag started hitting boundaries everyone started to shout. The office work,the training sesions, the onsite calls all were left aside.. People were not the employee of the company then they were just INDIANs rather cricket loving Indians.
With the first wicket every one was back to desk losing hope. But the Master Blaster was still there. So the magic continues. I reached home early and of course missed the charm that was prevailing in the office. It was a wonderful game with the Indian teams superb performance. I switched off the television when Pakistan was hitting fours and sixes. But again the shouts of the neighbourhood told me that we have got a wicket. I hurriedly opoened the television to find out. And at last when India did win the madness of the people was just ...... There were fire crackers, music,everyone danced like anythng. Whatever they had with them whether its a plate and spoon or a drum ..they started playing them. Not to mention the lots of forwarded sms saying Jai Hind started coming in that very late hours of night.
The world cup final against Sri Lanka really was something which I need not say. The newspaper said it all. My doubt against the Indian ability was proved wrong. Though Sri Lanka did a marvellous job putting up a high score,bowling well yet the day was ours.I was cursing India when it was 32-2. It seemed India always loses at the end. But Dhoni ,Gautam Gambhir did a fantastic job. The roads were empty ,there was no traffic anywhere,everyone was glued to the television. The last 10 overs was too much exciting and tension filled. And after the final six I cant express the impact of the Indians. Every news channel showed it.oooooooooooooooooooooooo WE won. India created a history. Everyone updated their facebook status ,orkut satus and twitter. Lots of pictures were also uploaded.
Actally IT HAPPENS ONLY IN INDIA...Jai Hind.
