It all began in the year 2007 with India getting knocked out at the preliminary stage of the 2007 World Cup, in West Indies. The year 2007 saw the dejected faces of the Indians for their most shameful and tear-jerking defeat till date and also beheld Dhoni and his boys rejuvenating winning the T20 World Cup, in Africa. It saw the most vinegar and the sweetest memories of all times which will be cherished for the coming years.
The last year i.e. the year 2008, for the Indian Cricket team commenced with a disappointing draw against Australia, with Bhajji being accused of racism. Then, came the much awaited victory with the Aussies at the one dayers. With this victory the Indians sent across the message to the Australians, hey guys! Better be on the ball.. your time is now over! However the Indian team was successful in defeating every team in the world. The last year gave the reason for the team to rejoice as India registered victory against almost every country they played be it thumping a victory in the test against England or defeating Sri Lanka in their home. The Indians won almost every series except the Asia Cup in Pakistan and the Kit Ply cup in Dhaka. Dhoni and his boys attested their caliber in every form of the game. Not only that, but we also we saw the way Dhoni led the side. Every time he stepped on to the field, he gave the nation a reason to smile.
So with these victories can one say that the Indians have a potential to replace the position of the Australians or India still has a long way to go?
