EMPHATIC VICTORIES
We have been watching a dream run of the Indian Cricket team led by Rohit Sharma, supported by Virat Kohli, K L Rahul, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, and the rest of the team. A team rising to challenges, staying calm, and delivering results. And, what a result, an unparalleled string of victories over every team participating in this championship. We can say, that no other team has had such a run. No defeats, all wins. The team has set the bar and is right at the top of the point's table. The wins were emphatic and have come under pressure. These wins will be savored and enjoyed over time.
ELIMINATION ROUNDS
As we look ahead to the ODI World Cup semi-finals and finals, it's clear that the semi-final and the finals are elimination rounds. Our performance has been strong. Team members have stepped up and have shown a balanced calm and can-do attitude. Based on the strong performance so far, we can expect to win the semi-final and play the finals, thus, giving ourselves a chance to win the ODI 2023 World Cup this year. For too long has our trophy cupboard been waiting for the coveted trophies that have slipped through our hands in the past. No other team has peaked so well, played and complemented each other so splendidly. It's almost perfect.
PAST GHOSTS
For, far too long, the Indian supporters have had to endure batting collapses horrendous fielding's, and shoddy bowling. Teamwork was seen occasionally. Players had difficulty coming together and contributing as a team. It had left an inedible mark on fans and millions of supporters. Over the past few years, significant improvement across the entire team has calmed frayed nerves and given hope that these issues are in the past and will not surface again. Our team and its players have consistently been in the top rankings and have demonstrated a consistent willingness to play to win and recover from potentially disastrous situations.
BOWLING TALENT
The guarantee to bamboozle batsmen, to beat them around their legs and edge the cherry from their bats to the safe-reaching hands behind the stumps has been so consistent that we know that we can bowl out the opposition. Our Pace and Spin departments are backed up with talented individuals. We have the most potent bowling line-up, headed by Bumrah, Shami, Siraj, Kuldeep and Jadeja. It's not just their skills, it's their intent, their approach, and the focus with which they have bowled out other teams. And, to complement these fine gentlemen, we have a batting line-up capable of scoring substantial totals and have demonstrated a wonderful situational awareness and calm confidence. Need I say more?
WE HAVE IT ALL
We have it all, talent, performance, and the calm confidence that goes with it. We have one of the very best teams, we ever had! An extremely talented bench strength and a 'B' team that can take on international competition. The depth and balance in the squad are soul-warming to the Indian cricket fans.
Here's a big wish, a big Cheer, and the nation's prayers for the team, that's going on to the most crucial phase in the tournament.
To the team..... Hip Hip Hurray !!, no, scratch that...
APNA HAI DIN YEH AAJ KA, DUNIYA SE JA KE BOL DHO......DUNIYA KI ANKHE KHOL DHO,
LEHARA DO, LEHARA DO !!
