One thing that stood out in India's win over Australia, Pakistan and finally Sri Lanka, was the amazing 'Emotional Stability' shown by the entire team when they were under pressure.
Yuvraj's emotionless grit and determination against australia until he hit that final four when he finally got down on his knees and slapped his bat in air
The entire teams consistent fielding and bowling under pressure in stopping none other than Pakistan well short of the total in an emotionally charged game. Nehra's guts to bowl the spell that he did after the entire nation humiliated him for his over against South Africa.
Gambhir and Dhoni's calculated emtionless(Australia-like) batting until Dhoni hit that final six when he let out a grunt.
Far too often (match against SA) we have let our emotions get the better of our talent in a pressure situation. not on these 3 occasions.
And then by the time it was over, the emotions and tears all flowed freely.. a bunch of 20-38 year olds cried like babies in front of the whole world. a whole nation of a billion people cried along with them.
CHEERS and THANK YOU to the entire team and especially Gary Kirsten for bringing a nation together.. u did a fantastic job of keeping the emtions in check when you had to.
Thank You, for giving us the 3 most memorable nights in our lives
Thank You, for bringing a billion people to tears
