Match Review: India vs Australia, World Cup 2011 Quarter final, 24th March, 2011, Montero, Ahmedabad, India.
Result: India bt Australia by 5 wickets.
Australia very clearly looked intimidated playing India in the all crucial knockout quarter final game against India. You didn't see the aggressive mind games being played by Australia before the crucial game.
Even on the field, Australia didn't seem to have the aura associated with them in the past. India on the other hand were really determined and you could see it in their body language that this meant a lot to the Indian team. They were really determined to win, played with a lot of heart and eventually beat the 3 time defending champions.
Overall, it was a fabulous game of cricket, I watched the entire game with my heart in my mouth. This should be one of the greatest cricket matches ever. Watching India play today, they definitely looked world cup champion material. Maybe, it's India's destiny to win the 2011 world cup.
Good luck to the Indian team and hopefully the next match against Pakistan in Mohali will be another cliff hanger. India, I believe will be the favorites to win that game.
