Outcome is anyones guess....



"ONE CUP, ONE WINNER!"











I was just 3 when for the first time India were qualified for WC finals 25 June 1983. Forget about knowing what it’s like winning WC, I wasn’t even aware about the meaning of my own name.

20 years latter India were on brink of winning World cup.
24 march 2003, venue J’burg SA, opponents Australia, and boy what followed from first over was absolute CARNAGE… The match was lost in the very first over!

Top 3 Australian players went bang bang….. Captain Ricky Ponting went on to make 140 odd runs in final… India couldn’t recover and billions of souls sunk in acute mental pain. I seriously thought then, that I won’t be able to witness the joy of world cup win ever...

THINGS HAVE CHANGED BUT NOT THE HISTORY!

The good part we have a good unit and not just players with big names… To make things good our Incredible Nation will host the WC – team surely will get one hundred percent home support.

At the outset every thing looks in our favor except the past!

"NOT ONCE FROM THE START OF WC, COUNTRY HOSTING THE WC FINAL HAS LIFTED THE WC!"
I hope we set exception to the stats else as they say ;-)

Don’t expect India to win, support your country but w/o any expectation!

Outcome is anybody’s guess!
