Bleed Blue ...

With every passing ball of the match the picture is getting clearer. India will be playing Pakistan in the World Cup semi final which is at Mohali on Wednesday. The second semi final contestants are yet to be decided but taking into consideration the current situation of South Africa vs. New Zealand (188/5, 45.1), I guess RSA will make it to the semi finals.

For India, it was a well deserved consolidated win with mountain efforts coming from Yuvraj and Raina. Sachin and Gambhir did a splendid job of adding the scores to the board. Sachin also completed 18000 runs in ODI’s. Now, with every match he plays, there exists at least a record which stands broken or newly created by him. So, as it is normally said that this would be the last world cup Sachin would be playing, what else all Indians could dream of except for the win against Pakistan and eventually winning the World Cup?

India vs. Pakistan has been a war level match from ages. Its more than Cricket. Its more than scoring and defending. Its more than swears and bruises. India and Pakistan (and all the cricket playing nations) will witness the greatest match which every cricket lover had always yearned to see. The border clashes will be transformed onto the fields and even to the dressing rooms. Fate is undecided, but the attitude of the game is well in picture in front of everyone – heated and passionate. If we knock down the Pakis we would be entering the finals where there would be no stopping for the dreams and vows of every Indian in the entire world who would shout in one voice – Win India Win!

The entire India is ready to halt, watch, curse, abuse, bunk, off, swear and stretch the limits. The entire India is ready to get over its fear, pain, sufferings, mockeries and excuses. The entire India is ready to Bleed BLUE.
