Something to Cheer !

Finally something to cheer for Indian cricket fans, I think this is India’s first test victory on south African soil. This victory came when no one even in there wildest dream imagined that India can win. As it is always said about cricket, ''Cricket is a game of glorious uncertainties".

As expected Indian batting was screwed on day one, but to my surprise ( as I expected) sourav Ganguly batted really well for his 51. India managed to score 249 /10. Everyone was saying now its up to kumble to exploit the widening cracks on the pitch. But first inning bowling belonged to sreesanth, who got his first 5 wicket hall.

Saffies were killed for 84 in first innings, there was a big hope for India to win the game. Today with fall of last south African wicket, celebration began. It was a spirited performance by India, Hope Indian team can continue momentum for the tour and world cup.
