They wanted it so much, we as fans wanted it so much... wonderful to see the delight on their faces!!!
I was at the game last night. So much passion shown by the supporters at the SCG just like at the MCG game. There were Aussie supporters video taping us dancing and singing during the game and even the rain break. Don't think they had ever seen passion like that.
Was great to see Randiv on the boundary encouraging the crowd to make more noise as the winning moments drew close.
Thanks for that, Michael. I'm very envious of you. Ha ha! I wish I could've been there to witness it! I know someone else who was there as well, and they spoke highly of the atmosphere too even though the crowd was a small one.
Absolutely Michael. SL team has made us feel very proud and for the first time in my life I heard several aussies saying that they should take a leaf out of lankans book not only when playing the game but also on how to enjoy a cricket match as spectators. Never thought I would exist long enough to hear them applauding us to such an extent.
SCG crowd was good but can't beat the crowd we had in Meblourne. No words to describe the joy we had that day.
