IPL 7 : A Lookback

Yes, finally we did it. When all critics and other teams had written us off, we bounced back and got hold of the cup. As they say we peaked at the right time.


Whenever i think of KKR, i always get a mini heart attack. The team is like that. Loves to give dramatic finishes. Earlier it used to be like KKR and the Indian cricket team were two teams who could turn any winning game into losing ones. And they were so good in that. But suddenly both the above teams transformed. Individual performances were turned into collective effort and the rest as they say is history.


But then this year's IPL was the one to be remembered for a hell lot of things. Youngsters came into limelight, not one or two but a hell lot of them. Chahel,Mohit sharma,manan vohra, sanju samson, ishwar pandey,kedhar jadhav are only some of the names amongst them.


This IPL gave us some awesome memorable moments. Chris lynn miracle catch, Pollard's thoughtful catch,Mumbai chasing down 190 in 14 overs, Corey anderson's superb knock, Pathan hitting the world's fastest bowler Steyn like gully cricket bowler, The decimation of Sehwag, The flurry of sixes from Maxwell, One man show by AB De Villiers, Raina's run chase, Saha's century, Super over win by Rajasthan, Knock of David Warner, Ducks of Gambhir followed by his return to form, The mystery of Narine, Uthappa's match winning knocks, Preity zinta's dimple, Dhoni's anger, fight between Pollard and Starc, Outburst of Dravid, Delhi's slumpy form, Faulkner's cameo, Harbhajan lifting Nita Ambani, The full packed stadium, the 100 shades of emotions, the blabbering of siddhu, the hotness of shibani, the 60 days of non stop action.


This year's final was a final worth to remember. The likes where big names like Sehwag,maxwell,bailey,miller had a combined score of 8 between them and yet the team went on to score 199. The likes when the mystery man Narine was butched by the only bengali Wriddhiman saha for bounderies and sixes. The likes when the man with Orange cap failed to perform. And the likes when a punjabi hit the winning runs for a bengal team and ran around the ground like a mad man.


60 days of non stop actions comes to an end only to give way to an even bigger celebration on global scale the Fifa World Cup.


Till then : KORLAM LORLAM AND JEETLAM..:D
