Yes, sir. Not "technically" since I was born in and am now studying in the US but I've lived most of my life in Pakistan.

I'm USA... the name is pure deception, but since any cricket team we put together would be a national embarresment, I have to pick international teams. I'm a big fan of India, Pakistan, AU, and Sri... mostly I just enjoy a cup of tea, coffee or cocoa and watching a test or tourny.

Congratulation to Indian cricket team their bowling and fielding was flawless!
 
  • #123
You just can't expect to win these types of matches when you drop the best batsman in the world so many times! Well done to India, but Pakistan's fielding lost that game for them.

from the very first over?

I don't think so.
Sehwag hit him hard in his first spell which made him psychologically down losing his line and length of bowling.

I agree.

Bu sad yuvi was out at "0"
but in some way it's good for him, he lost his over confidence with his turn
now he'll play good in final

We WON !

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Congratulations to India, they deserve to win. Yuvraj the pie chucker picked up another two wickets, lol. But he deserved man of the tournament, I'm just surprised at how many wickets he took.

Sri Lanka bowled and fielded poorly. Why did they drop Mendis and Herath? Very bad move, the seamers they brought into replace them bowled poorly and made it easy for the Indian batsmen. Malinga started well and bowled badly towards the end. I think the Sri Lankans put up a poor fight in the 2nd innings.
