Well, the deep routed sportsmanship in India has always been seen among all. From a common man to the celebrities, everyone loves to encourage their team whenever the occasion arises.
In the context, India’s 2011 World Cup winning stars Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh and Sachin Tendulkar have lauded the victorious Indian team who has thrashed arch-rivals Pakistan in their very first encounter in the ongoing 2015 event in Adelaide on Sunday.
Putting in all-out dedicated efforts, India scored 300/7 based on Virat Kohli’s 107 runs. Pakistan were wrapped up for just 224 runs and their captain Misbah-ul-Haq was the only fighter for his side who made classy 76 runs. But all those efforts did not prove enough in the end as India registered their sixth consecutive victory over Pakistan in World Cup history.
Sachin, Yuvraj and Harbhajan, who have been important members of the team registering victories against Pakistan in the mega event, expressed their gratitude and have acknowledged India’s victory through social micro-blogging site, Twitter.
Former India cricket star, VVS Laxman has also tweeted his opinion. He has stated that it was a good bowling performance and that there were lots of positives. India’s next big challenge is to conquer South Africa in Melbourne on 22nd February.
Here is how these former great have expressed themselves.
