Cricket World Cup 2011: Afterthoughts on the India-Pakistan semi-final
The much awaited, much hyped, Mother Of All Games between sub-continental giants—India and Pakistan—is finally behind us.
India won, Pakistan lost.
Indian fans will celebrate.
Pakistani fans will mourn.
Another sub-continental giant—Sri Lanka—await the men in blue on Saturday, the 2nd of April, 2011 in Mumbai.
Despite it sounding like a cliché on a stuck record, can Team India do it for Sachin Tendulkar?

Ricky Ponting finally gave in.
Hordes of critics baying for his blood would not be denied.
The World Cup loss to India, in the quarters, was the final straw.
Much as Ricky Ponting would have liked to take the terminal blow on his chin—like a man—he would be first to admit that multiple body blows over the past few months had left him with more than just a bloody, broken finger.
It made him vulnerable—never a happy state of affairs for an Australian captain.

CWC 2011:Thoughts before the World Cup semi-finals
A few random thoughts before the World Cup semi-finals:
The high octane clash between the two South East Asian neighbours—India and Pakistan—is the most eagerly awaited game of this tournament.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Gary Kirsten managed to keep a lid on the pressure of expectations and beat Australia with a sangfroid not expected from usually jittery Indian sides. It will be nothing short of a minor miracle if they can continue in the same vein at Mohali especially in front of Messrs Dr. Manmohan Singh and Yousuf Raza Gilani.
Indo-Pak semi-final at Mohali sets the stage for cricket diplomacy
Cricket diplomacy is back.
An Indo-Pak semi-final in a World Cup is a momentous occasion. It warrants an attempt to bring the two nations closer.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh may be besieged by the multiple scandals hitting his beleaguered government but he has not forgotten how to make a grand gesture.

Cricket World Cup 2011:Has Yuvraj Singh turned the corner, at last?
Image via Wikipedia
When I think of Yuvraj Singh, I recall his unbeaten 84 in just his second one-dayer against the mighty Australians facing quality fast-bowling in the form of Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie and Brett Lee.
His knock powered India to an unlikely win. A star was born.
