India win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2-0

     
    India win 172 runs and they win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2-0. Terrific scenes at Nagpur. Ganguly gets a lap of honour. He is reluctant about it but Harbhajan Singh forces him into the lap of honour. It must have been an incredible feeling for Ganguly when Mahendra Singh Dhoni asked him to take charge. Superb effort this by the Indians. Deserving winners. Stay connected for the post match presentation... 
     
    Now the victory lap. All the team members are seated, stranded, etc... on the car, infact where's the car. It's vanished under the team guys, Sourav stands up from one portion of the car, waves at the crowd who have been waiting to catch the last glimpse of Ganguly donning the India colours. 
     
    Another beautiful gesture shown by Mahendra Singh Dhoni, he calls up the actual captain Anil Kumble to the dais now. Both of them together lift the coveted Border-Gavaskar Trophy. 
     
    Man of the series: Ishant Sharma : "I think in Indian wickets, you have to be patient and bowl in the right areas. All the senior players supported me; that's why I bowled well. I know how your body recovers and I know quite a lot about my body [fitness] now. Zaheer has quite bit of experience and he has constantly adviced me about two things: be patient and bowl in the right areas. My best wicket was taking Ponting in the second innings at Mohali. "
