All calculations can go wrong in this glorious game. It is said that the hour findeth the man.
In the semi against NZ, NZ was in the driver's seat, when Inzamam unleashed his power, scoring 60 off 36, to seal the fate of the match.
Sandeep Patel's 51 no off 36 balls in the semifinal against England was another game changer.
So was Jadeja's 50 against Pak. Sachin's 98 against Pak cannot be far away ! ( It is said that India and Sachin were under massive pressure and that Sachin did not sleep for 12 nights and then he launched his blitzkreig ! )
Not to mention the brilliant hundreds of Clive Llyod, Viv Richards, Ponting, A De Silva, Gilchrist etc.
It is truly said that the hour findeth the man !
Experience may count, but not always. We do not know who are going to be the game changers in the open World Cup.
The most consistent team - with three consecutive wins - will win the WC. Will Power therefore is one of the great qualities. Where there is a Will, there is a Way ! Iccha Shakthi is Kriya Shakthi !
Even though many ignore yesterday's match, dismissing it as a warm up match, India beat the World Champions ! It is a big morale booster for the Indians. It exposed both India's & Aus' weaknesses. Aus has the best bowling in the world and India the best spin bowling. The batsmen from both sides were all at sea and Chawla proved to be the man of the hour !
