M.S DHONI World Cup K.SANGAKKARA
India defeated Pakistan to enter into the Finals of ICC CWC 2011 facing Sri Lanka in Finals… Both the teams are playing for their second World Cup…
India has won their first world cup in 1983 in captaincy of Kapil Dev… India won that world cup against West Indies (one of the strongest team of those days)… That was first time India reached finals…
India reached second time in finals in 2003 as Sourav Ganguly captained the side… One of the finest captain of India lead India to final against Aussies… All the expectations were on Sachin, but Sachin failed to get India World Cup for 2nd time…
Now this is the third time India are in Finals of world cup Its Sri Lanka against them… Both the teams are equally powerful and are in pressure as both the teams are playing for 2nd world cup… Both the Captains are captaining their side for the first time in WC ….
Sri Lanka have won the first WC in 1996 defeating Aussies in Asia itself… Sri Lanka won that cup under Arjuna Ranatunga… It’s now on Kumar Sangakkara for Sri Lanka to get cup home back…
Indians are the most favorite team at this moment and are expected to win this cup… But Lankan Lions are Game changer and can change any game anytime…
| India Innings 260/9 | |||
| Sachin Tendulkar | 85 | Wahab Riaz | 5/46 |
| Virender Sehwag | 38 | Saed Ajmal | 2/44 |
| Suresh Raina | 36* | Mohammed Hafeez | 1/36 |
| Gautam Gambhir | 27 | ||
India after getting a great start failed to manage it… Sehwag gave a very good start but no one after Sehwag helped Sachin to maintain that start… Gambhir after a good partnership of 50 runs also got out same with Virat too… Sachin was dropped four times in the innings that too dint helped India as Sachin was caught by Captain Afridi on 85… Now it was all on captain Dhoni and Raina … They were going fine but Wahab was unstoppable he got Dhoni and pushed India back in pressure… Then India never recovered and one by one started perishing… Raina from one side remained not out for 36*… Wahab got 5 wickets in his Innings and best figures of his career…
India VS Pakistan… Nothing to say about… Everyone knows about it… BEST OF LUCK to both the teams…
