1.2 billion cricket fans and a unified wet dream

so... i know... not all of India is dying to watch cricket... but given that there might be a few more people outside of India... who are still into cricket... i guess we get pretty close to this number :)

so... needless to say... wet-dreams... need to have a central character... a super-hero of sorts... who bigger & better super hero... than the one & only... "Sachin Tendulkar" :)

gave it away too easy you think? well it was bloody obvious... if it wasn't.. .you possibly don't follow cricket anyway and wouldn't be reading this...

so ya... as we all know.. this is most-likely sachin's last world cup... also.. we know about how he is on 46 one day 100's...

first... match.. against bangladesh... sachin... doesn't perform... makes a start gets out.. blah blah.. pundit's have a field day...

second match... against england... india bats first... sachin gets a big hundred.. we have a thumping victory :) :) 47 100's for the master-blaster

third match... against ireland... sachin gets 50 odd.. he is just chilling in life anwyay... we win comfortably blah blah blah

fourth match... against netherlands... sachin really gets behin the bowling this time! another record 100... :) :) :) 48 100's for the master-blaster

fifth match... against south africa... this is a pressure match... 2 of the best teams and all of that jazz.. we'll lose this one... sachin will also not score... indian cricket will be dead in the media for about 3 days

sixth & last match... against west indies... another 50... this time in the 90's... pressure... blah bull crap.. life goes on...

qf2 ... india vs sl .. chalo fir.. ye to hona hi tha.. wc favorite's dark horses.. blah blah get romped.. 100 no 49 for master-blaster!! that's 100 100's ... in international cricket for the man!!!

sf1... india vs aus... who'd hv thgt... here they meet again... biggest threat... needs something spl... but this is sehwag's day... sachin fails miserably :S but we win anyway? hai na.. :P

WC FINAL!!! tadaan - tadaaan... if you have come this far... you know how this goes... we win the world cup... sachin hit's 50th one day 100!!

and then i guess we as a cricketing nation will sleep peacefully on the 2nd of april... a whole generation will feel like a man who defined their times... finally did... what he had ever picked up a cricket bat to do... it's been done & dusted... the greatest world cup of my life-time is done :)
