Team India - just win it ....


the pakistan tour started and ended and Me paresh kerkar being an ardent cricket follower didnt write a word on this tour , i mean its the gretest rivalry in sports India VS Pakistan and i didnt do any thing and why you all will ask ......

well firstly the test series between the two teams pissed me off , the first two tests played between the two teams was a cure for insomnia where any one could bat with his one hand tied behind the back the third which was like a one off test was won by pakistan because india screwed up and gifting the test series to pakistan 1-0

the oneday internationals started with a bang where we saw the real diffrence where the men in blues really stood out and stamped thier authority winning the series 4-1

it was too good to be true where the indian team is known as chokers while chasing totals they were finishing of games with overs to spare with wickets in hand

the players who stood out from this entire series were

yuvraj singh - he has come of age and is the mainstay of indian batting richly deserving man of the series award (no second thoughts at all)

mahendra singh dhoni - its no more gilchrist , because its only DHONI the finisher

R P singh - a great find and one for the future

sreesanth - this kerala boy has big heart and is surely going to play for some time

rahul dravid - as a captain and a leader

sachin tendulkar - he is back

fielding - it was amazing suresh raina,yuvraj singh ,mohammad kaif, and all the players

it was a total team effort to come back from the loss of the test series and give a wacking to pakistan in the one day series
a truly amazing preformance

well with the new sponsers NIKE i think the nike tag line which was "just do it " has been changed to "just win it....."

so on that winning note.....
