India in the final as expected

The predictions of eMedinewS came true and India beat Pakistan and entered the finals of the ICC World Cup comfortably. When India began the innings, initially it appeared that they would score 350. As the innings progressed, even a score of 220 looked unachievable. But in the end, 260 proved to a fighting total and a competitive score. Pakistan never could accelerate their run rate.

The serotonin levels of not only of Indian players but also of the politicians and public kept rising as the match was coming in the grip of India. For the first time, one could see even Dhoni getting excited with each fall of wicket. Worry on the face of Tendulkar was evident every time Pakistan scored a run. India has never lost a match to Pakistan in the World Cup and they maintained their tradition.

When Sachin Tendulkar was on 85, it seemed that he would achieve his 100th century in this match itself. But at that time, superstition took over the cricket with the thought that whenever Sachin scores a century India may not win. The very fact that he got out for 85 raised the hope that India is going to win.  We all know it has no scientific basis but that is how superstition works.

Good Luck India – Come Back with the World Cup.
