Team India winners of 2007 Twenty20 World Cup and Misbah’s mistake

Posted on September 25, 2007 Updated on June 6, 2015

Congratulations to Team India for this wonderful achievement.

While joining the celebrations, we are proving once again that Cricket Victory is the only real sporting victory that is counted in India. This can be seen by the barrage of gifts and prize money that is flowing and that will flow on and on to the
players. Dhoni did a great thing and as he rightly talked to the press during the presentation ceremony – “I opted to give an opportunity to a player who wants to prove in front of the International Cricketing Community. Win or Fail did not matter me.”

It was the best possible leadership example alive and online in front of millions of viewers. Very seldom you will find a leader taking a courageous decision such as this one in a crunch situation. He was well supported through out by his team members. This is Team Spirit at its best. Many more prizes await you Team India when you return tomorrow.

And the joke part of this victory is expressed below here by an email forward just now received by me. It goes like this:

T20 FINAL – MISBAH’S MISTAKE!!

MISBAH THOUGHT HE WAS SENDING THE BALL TO A PLACE WHERE THERE WAS NO ONE. HE DID NOT KNOW THAT THERE IS A MALAYALI IN EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD!!!

Have a great day and God Bless,
