I was going through this rediff forum. Its heartening to see people njoyin the moment of victory. And why shudnt we be. Its indeed a proud moment for any Indian. But it pains when people comment on the stallwarts of Indian cricket: Sachin, Dravid, Ganguly. Cmon man, they have given a lot to the Indian team. Even more than any other Indian cricket players (barring Kapil Dev and a few others) in the past. How can we even point fingers at these guys. Just becoz India didnt win a world cup when they played. may be its their hard luck. there have been many great players England has produced but still they never won any major cup in cricket. that doesnt meant they are bad. SA has so many wonderful cricketrs, but still they cudnt lift the cup. So, plz dont point ur fingers at these stallwarts just becoz India won this torunament. I think we shud praise their decision of stayin out of this tournament so that youngsters can step in and see what these young guys have done. Besides 20-20 is entirely different from a 50-50. A Uthappa can stay for 5 overs in a 20-20 match and turn the game, but its not possible in a 50 over match. I hope u guys who keep commenting know this fact. Infact instead of pointing fingers at the 3 old guns, i think we should be happy that we have found players in this tournmanet who can slowly be a full time part of the team in future. Rohit sharma in particular. So, chill out guys. Hail Team India and lets keep njoyin this moment.

I agree. Most people are born losers with no long term memory and so all they can do is talk crap.
