I haven’t quite been able to figure out why, A curse probably? Or maybe growing pressure to lose the chokers tag? Either way the South Africans have another year to figure out what goes wrong every World Cup Semi-Final as the 50 Over WC is scheduled for next year. As far as India is concerned, we don’t have to worry for the next 15 years. The future of Indian cricket is in very safe hands. This game was yet another proof that Indians can handle anything (except non-Asian venues).

by Sajed Ahmed The moment I got to know that West Indies was going to play the Lankans in the first Semi-Final of the ICC T20 World cup, I got very excited. It’s exciting to watch both the teams play, especially the Srilankans. West Indies maybe a little underperforming when it comes to ODIs and tests but when it comes to T20 cricket, we see a whole new energetic and rejuvenated team. The West Indies team has always brought something new into the arena every single time they play. The Lankans have always been a formidable side in every format of the game. It’s a treat to watch the Srilankan batsmen and their exquisite strokeplay. With the Lankans at the best of their game and the West Indians fresh as ever, this game was all set to be an exciting game of cricket. |
