India -1, West Indies – 0
Did India win because they had 339 runs on the board or did they almost lose because they thought they had 339 runs on board?
I feel sorry for WI, they got 2 bad decisions that just might have cost them the game. Chasing 25 runs from 18 balls seems a whole lot easier if you have 4 wickets in hand as opposed to 2. More so if there is a certain Mr Bravo at the other end.
Anyway, I noticed Dhoni’s emotionless face as the last WI wicket fell. What could that possibly mean?
Was he really pissed at his team?
Was he just plain relieved that India won?
Was he just too tired to care about cricket anymore?
Was he trying to show the media that he is still Captain Cool?
Was he…
Wait a sec…Am I turning into an Indian media journalist?
Yeah…I think I need to stop now…
Harsh Decisions
Now I know it can be a very subjective issue. But I was just wondering if there was any way to know how many times a batsman has been given out when he wasn’t. Cuz I was thinking that Sachin might be holding the record for this one.
P.S. this is not meant to start a white skin vs brown skin or any other kind of flame war. I am really curious.
