Yes..i will not call it anything less than a miracle...or you can say not everyone gets chance to witness such things live even in their life time...I was lucky..that I got such a chance and that too with most of my class mates in IIT...
Yes..I am very happy to say myself as Indian as I am from the land where Sachin Tendulkar born...This day has left its presence in the history of World cricket...
Well this also makes the whole lot of boring day with all the classes beginning from 10:00 AM in the morning with boring presentations...and my boring task was to ask genuine questions so that presentation gets dragged so that my turn won't come sooner.... well...thanks to my dear friend Jassi who was caught red handed by our HOD while asking score on mobile phone in the class...and our generous HOD left the class well in time so that we can witness the miracle...On one Hand... we have class of Business Statistics and other hand we have miracle waiting for us....and we chose for miracle....
The time we entered UG club...the atmosphere has already been set...with Sir ji and Dhoni was on strike...only 5 overs were left and Sachin was on 183..Great chances were there that Sachin would be able to complete his Double Century well in next 2 -3 overs...and the chants "Sachin...Sachin...Sachin..." surrounds the whole IIT ...the fantastic moment...the real IIT was there....
but our Captain ji Mr. Dhoni...made it little bit challenging for Sir ji..I am not saying that he is not playing..Dhoni was playing well but he was on strike most of the times...and it was 46th over...sir ji crossed his previous best of 186 in this over and scored 189 runs..Dhoni was striking ball like anything else...and took run on last ball....
Over 47...Dhoni on Strike...1st ball- goes for six.....sir ji came on strike in between...scored few runs..and Dhoni took run on last ball again.. when earlier chants were "Sachin..Sachin.." Now it has been changed to "Dhoni - Hye Hye...Dhoni Hye Hye..." despite of the fact he was playing well... poor Dhoni..
atmosphere was tense but enjoying...In over 48..sir ji crossed the previous best of 194 and scored 196 runs by the end of 48 over...everyone was delighted....everyone was on high...one chair was trying to accommodate 2-2 persons...and its amazing...chants again begin..."Sachin...Sachin...." everyone got an eye on Sachin's 200...but as I earlier mentioned...hamare pyare, bhole se...doodh peete bacche..Mr. Dhoni is repeating what Mr. Karthik did some time ago....came in between Sachin and his century...in this case Double century...
In 49 th over Sachin reached to 199 and Dhoni reached its 50..its a half century..its a happiness for him...but sad for all Indians as he was the only Deewar between sir ji and his double century..."Dhoni- Hye Hye.. Dhoni - Hye Hye.."...Feelings of people started to come...Sala, Bahin****..., Hara*****........chalo koi nahi...fir bhi ek ummeed...ek over....aur sirf ek run...baki tha...lekin who knows what is going to happen next....
50th Over...last over of innings...first ball...Dhoni on Strike...and its a six....Next ball...the ball was hit towards mid wicket...and it was supposed to be four...but suddenly...Hashim Amla...became angel for every Indian as he come in between the ball and the boundary...and Dhoni had to contend with Single only...every Indian gave lots of blessings to our main contender Hashim Amla at that time....as now Sachin is on strike....next delievery...ball was way outside off stump...sachin just push it in point region..and ran for single....and its double century...its a miracle...chairs were again on tensile testing...now each chair has to bear the burden of 3 persons each....and chants were not stopping...claps all the way...and every Indian must be feeling proud to be a Indian...
Sachin, you have again put India on top of the world....the one Man Army for Indian Cricket Team...Salute to you...and Wish you good luck on behalf of whole Department of Management Studies, IIT Roorkee.....
