Knowledge management lecture going on...time 1600hrs on a Sunday...India Vs Australia first final at SCG....someone says India 194/3...sachin on 96..a murmur starts...and then the the Prof says.."Thats great news..hope we win soon n Sachin scores a ton..."...n then the class starts asking for a break...a 15-20min break for tea/coffee....the prof wants to continue...but then he looks at the faces of the students sitting in the class pleading for the break....and the Prof says ok.."its 1610 be back at 1625"....and then...
a group of bikes like a pack of wolves on a hunt after seeing their prey..head to the hostel..top speed...1km distance..n people are topping 100kmph...and we all there in the TV Room and Sachin is on 99.....all of us..watching the TV..not even missing a single nanosecond...
holding our breaths..praying..and then the Lee finishes his over...Sachin is still on 99...James Hope comes on to bring some hope to Aussie bowling attack and Sharma takes a single...Sachin on strike again..99..n the praying starts again..80 of us...packed in a room...heavy breathing...silent prayers...and then he takes a single....and there it is...his 42nd century...80 of us...all from different religions..cultures..regions...etc etc..n are up in the air...shouting...whisteling...congratulating it each other...happy faces..everyones smiling...yippppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ...cricket is one thing tht unites us all..it unites a billion people in a country..hard to believe...come down here :D
and then we see our watches...1624...gotta head back..so now the entire wolf pack drives back to the KM Class...
SACHIN IS GOD....
PS...We are also the Under 19 Cricket World Cup champions now :)

For sometime it was the question of whether Sachin will take a century and not whether India will win:-) I am not very interested in cricket as such. But this match was really good:-)

Well..not sure if i agree completely...hes a grt player no doubt..but cant ignore the fact that last few yrs hes not the same that he used to be!
Not sure one odd...good match will change that...?
@ekta..thanks for dropping by...n welcome...
well age catches upon everyone...he has had his share of injuries to cope up with...the pressure of carrying the cricket team on his shoulders till abt the crop of players like dhoni, yuvraj, veeru came in to share it..but he is still going strong..maintaining a class of his own...till date the opposition teams fear him making a start in the innings.....
n down here..abt 3 hrs behind u...he still is the god :)
