T20..is that what they call it?!

Hello People,
I'm returning after a week..time for another blog. I thought I wouldnt write about cricket for a long time after the world cup fiasco..but here I am, just couldnt resist the admiration I had for our Indian lads in the T20 world cup. I'd particularly like to talk about the game against South Africa. What a performance, wow, it was one of those rare occasions when Indian cricket team got its act together and played some exemplary cricket. I thought it beat South Africa "PANTS DOWN", in all departments of the game. Well, there was scope for improvement, we gave away too many extras if avoided would have made things more easy for India and definitely nerve wracking for South Africa. Sreesanth especially should improve his line and start pitching the ball up to the batsman rather than looking to swing it away from the batsmen. Never give the batsmen room to wack the ball away.
All said, I think they have an interesting and tough game ahead with none other than Aussies. It's been a while they've been tamed by anybody, but we can fancy our chances and go for it. "Play like a spirited team" should be the MANTRA. Winning over SA without Yuvi was a sure sign that we had still have a lot of talent and dont have to depend on performances of just 1 or 2 cricketers. So, for the game against Australia, ALL THE BEST India.I'll be one among those millions of fans watching and waiting to see our side winning. So, please don't disappoint us. Hmm...am I getting a little carried away here.
More after the match..happy watching. :-)
