Thiruvananthapuram ∙ ‘Whether India wins or loses the game, it keeps its head up’ – even though the result was a disappointment, everyone held their own country close to their hearts. In step with the World Cup cricket excitement, the city celebrated India’s strength in reaching the final. The finals were screened on big screens in many places like Chithira Tirunal Park, Vellayambalam Manaviyam Veethi, Perurkada, Vanchiyur etc. in East Kota. Hotels have also prepared an opportunity to watch the final on a big screen.
As the rain came before noon, people did not come to watch the game on the big screen. As the rain subsided, the audience also came in front of the screens. After Australia won the toss and sent India in to bat, the cricket lovers were happy to see Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s explosive batting first.
Much to their delight, the crowd erupted in applause as the opening partnership of Rohit Sharma and Gill progressed well. After crossing 80 in the first ten overs, there was talk of India crossing 300 on the scoreboard. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma is out.
Then when Kohli was shown on the screen, there was a shower of applause. Virat was welcomed with comments like ‘Wada mone come and break’. After knowing that Kohli had come to bat, spectators thronged the big screens in public places. Then everyone was in complete excitement with deep support and applause for India. As Kohli crossed 50, the excitement broke.
As the Indian score dragged on due to Australia’s fielding and bowling excellence, disappointment spread among the spectators. As the Indian innings came to an end, the discussion heated whether the score would cross 250. When that didn’t happen, the vast majority vacated the space in front of the big screens.
When Australia started batting, there were only people who might be counted on the fingers in front of the Lea screens. But as the Indian bowlers started taking wickets and the game entered the true beauty of cricket, the viewership increased once more. But the result was disappointment.
