A Score Board I can never ever forget!!
What a match, simply unbelievable! Still shell shocked at the moment! A match which has given new meaning to what a chase is all about!
Wondering what it would have been like to face the nerve wracking pressure the players would have faced! surely lost a few years... Surely, cigarettes are healthier!
Alakananda watched this match with the signal clarity of the TV being at its worst, and yet today was the day, when TV transported all our minds to South Africa to watch history being made! Never was the picture in the mind's eye clearer! never before has Tony Greig found so keen a listener,with all hanging on to his every word! Every one desperate for some memories of this great match to be cherished later!
This match today transcended all barriers, including the sound barrier! The Indian team wouldnt have recieved louder and more boisterous support from our hostel than the south africans today, and I am sure this would have been the case almost every where!
Hats off to Graeme Smith and his team for their towering achievement!
P.S: If ever there exists a cricketing god, he ensured that justice was finally done to the South Africans!
