Congrats to India. Both sides really love making it difficult for themselves.

It is not the Twenty20 world cup, thats a different tournament
Oh...whatever, you know what i meant.

Got carried away.

Who would have predicted this outcome at the beginning of the tournament though? What odds were India does anyone know?

Oh well was a good match and both sides had something to prove after the disappointments of the WC...

It's been an okay tournament this actually.

This is supposed to in inaugural World T20 but I think ICC are now gonna make this the first WC T20. Would be daft to start over again from 2009.

You have to feel for Pakistan. I would have been gutted and down for days if we had lost this in this manner.

I think he tried to be clever and loft it over the wicket keeper, I thought it was a 6 as well, then some cnut caught it!

He didn't really need to go for it but anyway he tried his best and we wouldn't have been in that position without him... With him still in I always had a little bit of confidence that it could be done...

Probably our best batsmen for this tournament...

I thought it was a 6 and jumped up but then realised it was too short :( :lol:

I think he realised that he was kneeling down at the end looking gutted - anyway he's pretty much saved us then and in other matches so I don't hold any grudges.

Afridi did my head in giving his wicket away easily yet again!

India have just done through the tournament what Liverpool did through theirs when they won the CL.

Thought it would be a boundary, only to have the gaylord Sreesanth catch the thing

India almost threw it away

feck off.

We deserved to win every match before this. Took SA and Eng to cleaners and won deserved against Aussies as well. This one could have gone either way, nobody really deserved to lose the final.
