Although I am not a cricket fan, it was the finals between India and Sri Lanka, and like most of the families in India, my family is no different when it comes to watching a final match with India in such a fine touch! I was forced to sit with the family and watch the Indian batting, and yeah, they were great for the first 9 overs!
Boy o boy, surely the IPL has changed the mindsets of the batsmen all over the world, and it has affected the longer version of the game as well! Where are those batsmen like Sachin n Saurav who always "took 5-6 overs to settle in"! All I could see was some entertaining fireworks from Sehwag, and he certainly looked at his best, but hats off to Mendis for such a fine spell. Never have I seen anyone so accurate! Not even the Pigeon & my all time favorite Shane Warne! That man single handedly took away the match from Indians! Although it was a sad moment for Indian cricket fans, none the less, it was nice to see a man so accurate in his bowling on a tournament which was dominated by batsmen!
