Cricket Victory - Calculating Defeat

My dear Friends, you are well aware that Indian cricketers have created yet another history when they defeated Kangaroos in their own homeland and ground of their own choice on 04 March 2008. We extend our heartiest felicitation and apportion legion congratulations to Mahender Singh Dhoni and his team. The face of bat which Indian cricketers have opened after Sydney match has finally culminated in their victory in Casual Wealth Bank Cricket tri-series in Australia.

Dear friends' Australian team, despite having world's best batsmen and bowlers, as observed struggling to get a bound to inch their team in relation to victory. Has Hogg waited a little more with ball to go next probably, it would keep been the ever best Cricket match of the World even in a superior way than Ashes. The diversion in tri series was generated washed-up proxy mouth batting when diurnal Australian media came out with a modern allegation or charge against ace Indian spinner Bhaaji, Harbhajan Singh. These charges though were as well distractive during initial days, but it gave a motive to Bhaajji whose aim became superb spell of bowling during both the finals at Sydney and Brisbane.

A victory after almost 22 oldness on Australian land by Indian cricketers has broken the contented and aloof attitude of Australian Cricket team specially Rickey who had exhibited regularly his conceited behaviour with other countries players. The most unpopular welcome of Murli of Sri Lanka with flying eggs all over has shown dying spirit of cricket amongst Australian cricket lovers. It was exceeding off hatred farewell sendoff rather than sweet home welcome.

There were moments when over 80 millions Indian watching the match has their last breadths arrested when Hogg pulled off a ball over fence and reduced the gap between balls and runs from 40 to 26. A thrilling mo arrested every cricket lover breadth. Infact most of the fans inhaled a extensive width on the contrary exhaled a calm posture after Srisant got a wicket.

Contribution of extreme Sachin has once again proved adage true that Old is Gold. His century at Sydney and 91 today has shown all his lovers that he had still lot of cricket left in him. He would forge ahead to be role model of youngsters in impending for a long time.

Beloved Bhaajji, who had been detested by Mathew and Hayden, had proved beyond vacillate that he is the best terminator of Indian cricket team. Truly speaking Bhaajji had terminated the match not one at Sydney but also at Brisbane as great by sending his arc lovers Mathew and Hayden back to pavilion. No hatred, no rumors apart development and that is what Indian cause and done, dona, done - done. His calm and consistence over before claiming the scalps of centre line duo bedrock has turned the table in Dhoni's tigers favor.

My compliments to all the cricket lovers of world who has supported this series and made Indian prove that TW-20 claim was not a fluke stroke of luck however a bright-eyed won victory after sustained fights.

Why I called it a experienced defeat thanks to the real defeat was already regular by Australian skipper a day prior of commencing ending matches. He has by and booming exhibited through his behavior and conduct that fear of losing series is looming large. This fear never brought smile of Rickey's face ever in either of the finals match. His forced compliments to Dhoni's tigers were something analogous pulling out paragraph from his mouth.

Rickey's conduct and action of extending complements to Dhoni for winning Tri-series, was not liking a good sportsman. He infact had to con to be a good social human as well. The contest of subject which they play before every match series needs to put a break in future. More over the umpires dwindling decisions in also clear outs besides mistrust their hidden partisanship towards Kangaroos.

I hope Kangaroos learn from such errors and crack to play cricket as gentlemen game and not enjoy a battle field. They must

Be deluxe human beings

Be good Sportsmen

Be acceptable teammate and leaders

Learn not to influence umpire like Sydney where world record carry been created by umpires giving thirteen wrong decisions against matchless Indian team and none against Australians.

Cricket is a diversion of gentlemen and not what Australians tried to make. Killing every game you play is every skipper's head trip but accepting defeat with grace is exclusive a infrequent true skippers can do.
