Great win it was to end the fear of Khaufland of India's nemesis overseas viz. New Zealand so far. Dhoni's men with Sachin, Yuvraj, Raina, Viru, Bhajji, Zak, captain himself, and obviously the unassuming reticent coach Gary among others have made it possible so far to have at least drawn the ODI series against the Kiwis so far after nearly four decades(with at least a hand ensured on the series trophy.):) It can be a 3-1 sseries win or 4-0 washout in favor of India. Great show today at Christchurch esp by dint of quickfire runs by Sachin(163 retd. hurt), Yuvi(87), Dhoni(68), and Raina(38 no)to post a record mammoth total of 392 in 50 overs(the highest ever on this ground so far) and by winning the match by 58 runs. Tis an amazing batting line-up; perhaps the best ever by Sachin's own account. Raina is amazingly gifted and possibly will best inherit the leagacy of Sachin and better further it. If the bowlers pulled up their socks, India is all set to become the numero uno of cricket with each individual now capable of being a match-winner. Initial skeptism against Youngistan and Dhoni notwithstanding, the devil should finally get its due.:)Hats off to Dhoni and his genuinely 'The Team'!!! They deserve the best.
Sachin is unfortunately ruled out of the 4th ODI owing to an aggravated stomach sprain of obrien's ball in the previous inning. But we surely expect a Sach-less bang runfeast propelled by the Youngistan. That will herald an era of future Sachins' behemoth. And who knows the best team ever we might as well win the jinxed WC final in 2011 with or without Sachin, his inspiration notwithstanding! Long live youthful, supremely talented, and fearless Dhoni's ablest men!!!
From a die-hard Indian cricket, Youngistan(Raina-esque), Dhoni, Ganguly, and esp Sachin's afficiando with love to Indian Cricket!!!
