Name: rohitchatterjee
Message: Wud luv to convey a bagul, no a trunk full, no maybe a truck load of congratulations and good wisehs to the Indian Crciket teamn for their spectacular performance at Lords. This team looks like and raises hopes of Indians by leaps and bounds as far as making a mark in the world cup i concerened. if they apply themselves and believe in themselves they r quiet capable of winning the cup too, who knows. But yeah its too early too say, there is still a lot of cricket to play and lot more planning and applicatrion reqd and a lot of improvement reqd in the bowling and dept. We still have a long way to go in terms of work to be put in, but whats noticeabla and heartning to know is that atleats the team gives in a 100% and has the desire too win, thats 50% of the job done. The Team under the captaincy of the Prince of Calcutta is doing well and now looks like n organised unit.he has been critcicised on various poeple(my name also belongs to that list) but has come out of it all and sone brightly, his results speak for himself. Its always important for the captain to be enthusiastic and motivate the players and thats what he has been doing even though his performnace has not been utpo the mark. But the way he conducts himeslf as a captain is something that wud even motivte me to give my best on the field. Whats heartening to note here is that India is no more a one man army, as Mr. Boycott said we r now "Team India" and dont sut rely on Sachin. We dont fall lack a bowling pins anymore after he is out and thats a good sign for the futue of Indian Cricket. Once again i wud like to congratule this team of champions and wish them all the very best for all their future tournaments and may these great sons of India shine and make all Indians "all over the world" feel proud. All iw ud like to tell them is please dotn get overconfident ever and think there is e

Saurav- keep up the passion for the game, u gave us excitement even after the completion of the historic chase. Yuvraj and Kaif- They are not just limited overs wonders, they can be given a chance in tests too. Sachin and Dravid- kudos for the transition to your new roles, you guys made ur impact on most of the matches. Sehwag and Mongia- both of u had small cameos but theyrnt enough we expect big tons too. Nehra and Zaheer- good job done though need to check flow of runs at times. Kumble and Bhajju- need more consistency, guys. Agarkar- we missed u in final, hoep u come banging next time. Yohannan and Laxman- need to improve a lot for even being in the reserves. Bravo India ! go for the world cup

Name: Anshul Gagneja
Message: Congratulations & Celeberations iiya iiya O !!! I really appreciate the way Yuvraj Singh & Mohd. kaif proved that India can win in any situation. But I really want to request Sachin tendulkar to improve his way of batting in such crucial stages. No doubt he is the best batsman in the WORLD but when it comes the case of tight situations he is unable to have pasience. Its a humble request to Sachin not the comment on his batting. I also really appreciate Rahul Dravid for playing a new role he has to just improve himself & India will have one more batsman in the line due to him which is really great. So that india will have good batting line up with batsman till 7th wicket. Thanks & Regards to Indian team, Anshul Gagneja
