Cricket World Cup 2007
by Sivaswamy Mohanakrishnan on Apr 29, 2007 10:38 AM

Inspite of the funny end, there were some great moments in the final match
1. Gilchrist's 2 sixers straight down the line
2. Sangakkara's brilliant sportsmanship in singalling that the catch was not completed and the wicket had not fallen
3. Glenn McGrath being hit for sixes and fours
4. The brilliant four by Silva off a full toss, swept down the fine leg area
5. Clarke bowling out Jayasuriya
6. Jayasuria's strong hits contrasted by Sangakkara's graceful stroke play when he got goisg finally
7. Seeing Mathew Hayden really trying to find his form in the crucail match and conceding the ground to Adam Gilchrist
8. The ICC lost another great PR opportunity when they had Sir Gary Sobers standing mute in the presentation stage, without inviting him to say a word or give away a medal or trophy.

Well the Cup chase is over and it is poetic that the people who won the chase were having it themselves all the time.
