It was a
nail biting finish in true sense when India humbled Bangladesh this Wednesday in a sensational Cricket match in Bengaluru.It was a lessons giving historic story of one
run victory of India over Bangladesh on march 23,2016 in world T20/match.
After 39.3 overs of a contest ,Bangladesh
was smelling fragrance of the victory
and seemed to have a first ever T20I victory against India.Two runs needed off
three balls, with Mushfiqur Rahim on strike and spectators were holding their
breath. The game should have been dusted
away and India were staring at an
early exit .
Bangladesh proceeded to remarkably offer India
a way back into the game, with Mushfiqur and Mahmudullah both being caught in
the leg-side boundary off Hardik Pandya. Two needed off one, and suddenly, it
was Bangladesh was in doledrums.
Pandya ran in for the final
delivery, bowled outside Shuvagata Hom's reach, and MS Dhoni, who had earlier
pulled off a sensational stumping to ensure dismissal of the dangerous Sabbir
Rahman, ran in 15 yards with one glove and ran out Mustafizur Rahman, who had
only just walked into the boiling ring.
The one-run win has kept afloat India in their hunt for a place in
the last four, with a match against Australia coming up.
The thrill packed match
which witnessed fluctuating fortunes gave s slew of lessons for life.Never lose heart come what may. Hold your nerves even in an apparent lost game.
If you manage to hold
breath in dying moments in the ring of life,wonders are bound to be there. This
is what was displayed by an electrifying skipper of Team India.Unfazed by mounting pressure of looming debacle, neither the caption nor his men in blue gave in.
They were embodiment of courage. More than
skill fighting spirit was the trick which brought laurels to the country.
The second lesson was that
if the leader is efficient and worthy,the team could scale inaccessible heights.The Leader weaves destiny for the team but all have to chip in .
Many will say it was luck
,but the lesson is that lady luck smiles on those who wage a pitched
battle even when ll seems to be over.
Optimism is key to life. A
newspaper this morning wrote India was saved from sure defeat by a
whisker head line is technically correct but is full of pessimism. When victory
is there why should we think of defeat.
Another lesson flagged was that never take
things granted. Bangladeshi team thought that the game is over for India as they had
wickets in hand and run to be posted on the score board were not that high .
All is well was in their psyche and they threw
caution to air.so till last moment mandatory caution be maintained. It was the last ball which clinched victory for India ,leaving rivals dumbfounded despite good show throughout the match.
