A world Cup after 24 seasons...Chak De India

This is what BBC news said - 'Calling India an unpredictable team is a fallacy. To be unpredictable, one has to win some and lose some. It's been 24 seasons since India last won a World Cup. It's been a dozen years since India won an Asia cup! The last win (jointly, though!) in Champions trophy happened five seasons ago.'
I hope we have answered them, nice and proper...it comes back to us after good 24 years - I remember the last win too...I watched the entire series of match back then...and yesterday, we showed to the world that we can do it...the least I could do was to congratulate everyone on my phone directory by sending a message! :-)
Chak de India - an awesome match with so many ups and downs...with 6 balls remaining, we almost thought we had lost it, when that catch happened. Sonu, me and Mili jumped and shouted. Manish and his team watched it in Raddison Noida over beers - when he came back home, he could barely speak - cheers does a good job of the throat..but look at the spirit that Indians have. We are so much Indian and so very proud to be so.
