Young Indian Guns rolling in SA

Young guns of Indian Cricket team are rolling in SA...they knocked out the host from the Twenty20 WC.

This victory showcased the exuberance of the youth. Scintillating fielding, swinging bowling and flowing batting...all the 3 combined sealed the fate of South Africans.

Yuvraj the other day showed his frustruations on the England side, by sending the ball soaring into the Orbit for 6 consecutive times and today the SA team was at the receiving end of Rohit sharma's bat. Probably Rohit was sending out signal to BCCI selectors for dumping him without giving his due.

Fielding was sensational, must have defienetly made Jonty Rhodes proud - alas his home team had to make the exit from another WC at an early stage. Rohit did not end his day with 50 on board but also took the centerstage with a Jonty like runout of Kemp. If the run-out was outstanding, the catch by D Kartick was breath-taking.

RP Singh is having the best time of his cricketing career... a great series in England and now a great bowling spell that brought down the curtains on SA hopes of entering the semis of Twenty20 WC.

Indian team now take on the hot favorites Aussies in the semis. Hope the Indian captain Dhoni would be able to induce enough motivation and self-belief in the team that they could put it away against the Aussies.

If India win on Saturday, this team would have definetely erased the memories of 2003 WC debacle to some extent.....

Go India... CHAK DE INDIA
