March 03, 2003 12:55 IST
Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on Monday lauded the Indian cricket team for the "spirit and togetherness" with which it defeated Pakistan and hoped it would continue with its winning spree and bring the World Cup home.
"It was an excellent display of team spirit and togetherness by all members of the Indian cricket team," Vajpayee said in a letter to skipper Sourav Ganguly.
India demolished arch-rivals Pakistan by six wickets in a high-voltage match on Saturday.
Vajpayee said: "I am sure that the team will continue to play with the same spirit in the World Cup tournament and win
laurels for the country."
The letter was sent to Rajiv Shukla, member of Parliament and chairman, media co-ordination committee of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, to be handed over to the Indian skipper in South Africa.
