Win! at last or should I say loss.......finally! :-)
If you ask me, both the phrases give me equal amount of pleasure. Not only did we destabilize the throne of the erstwhile mighty Aussies, we did it in great style.
One hundred and seventy one runs win as against a ten wicket loss. We seem to have leveled the series, in all meanings of the word.
The match review column in rediff made an interesting observation, it had to do with the invincibility of a player or team and the myth/mystique that comes as a part of the package. I agree to it fully. Many a times, it so happens, that the teams go on winning almost habitually, till the time someone throws in a spanner in the victory march. Within no time the spell breaks. The invincible air disappears and the same team which boasts of demigods appears to be comprised of mere mortals, who can be beaten.
That is akin to Gopichand winning the all
Whatever happens, I am going to drink to this long awaited win, and drink silly!!!
