The day that will be etched in our memories for ever

April 2, 2011 – The day India won the World Cup!

You had to see them to believe them, trust them and revere them for what they accomplished. The match seemed a lost cause by the time I woke up and could get a hang of things – 31/2 with Sachin and Sehwag back in the pavilion. But that was just on paper. When you actually watch Virat and Gautum bat, they seemed composed as seasoned campaigners, as batsman playing in their Nth world cup final! Watching boys take responsibility and grow into men. The team represents a new face of India – resilient and reluctant to give up in the face of adversity. I cannot think of any other event that would bring joy and pride to a billion people on earth.
