India Vs Pakistan WC 2023

That match of every World Cup we Indians wait for every-time and the Joy of beating Pakistan every-time is a different High.. 💙

This time it was bigger than most of the times. Playing in the Narendra Modi stadium with 1 lakh+ fans and all Indian fans - “Sea of Blue” adds both Supporters backing and Pressure feeling in the players.

The match which started with a pitch which looked like a 300+ wicket was wrapped up by Indian bowling attack at 191. The wickets tumbled down from 155-2 to 191-10.

Pakistan couldn’t even face complete 50 overs against Indian bowlers.

A comfortable chase to finish well within 31 overs and improving the Net Run Rate was achieved by Indian batsmen moving India to the Top of the Table..!!!

The chase journey of India has been to the T in this World Cup.

The sweetness to the victory was the World Cup statistic- India defending the WIN record for the 8th time and moving the tally to 8-0.

Long journey to go ahead in this WC considering the format of the WC.

Come On India…💙

Manchester City - Cityzen

 Manchester City is not a club but an Emotion for me and fellow Cityzens. Cannot be a better time to pen down my journey from a viewer to Cityzen and growth of the Club we Cityzens love and follow.

Until 2008/09 the attention and the matches which i use to watch of English Premier League Clubs were during the EUFA Champions League, Europa League as i was a fan of football as a Sport and use to watch and follow the International events like the WC, Euro, Copa America, etc…

2008/09 season was the first season i watched ManCity play and don’t know why but i just wanted watch more matches of the club and then started my journey as a ManCity follower to a Fan to a Cityzen and now proudly say while addressing about the Club as “ We won the match/We won the Title”.

Since 2008/09 we have seen ManCity grow in all aspects. Be it the Infrastructural needs of the game or be it Players/Managers/Coaching Staff. Man City have climbed heights. A great monetary support received from Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan through Abu Dhabi United Group in 2008/09 which helped club enhance the Infra, players, management needs.

That was the new Era of the club and under the guidance of Roberto Manchini we won the FA cup in 2011 followed by the historic Premier League Victory in injury time 93:20.

The most talked about Era is the PEP Guardiola era wherein The Boss has shaped the team and moulded the team to achieve greater heights and we had won every Silverware but Champions League until this year.

The wait and patience has paid off. The Champions League Silverware not only completed the wait for the trophy but also the historic Treble for our club.

We were/are blessed to have such greats playing for our club and our own academy talent as well.

As a Cityzen, cannot ask more than the glory achieved this year. We Cityzens were-are-will be with the club in the success and failures and each n every decision the management takes for the betterment of the Club.

Being part of the OSC City Community creates a feeling of Cityzens being Together. Proud member of Mumbai OSC.

Come On Citteehhh…💙💙

Bidding Farewell to Sergio Agüero: "Kun"

 Sergio Agüero:

We Cityzens and the fans across the world knows him as “Kun”

An incredible talent ManCity signed in 2011. Our club was in the rebuilding phase and we signed Kun.  What a signing it has been for us. A young talent who was picked from Atletico Madrid did wonders for us. 

The first
season - the last match - the last minutes one can never forget the timing 93:20.. winning goal by Kun brought glory to the club..joy to the fans.. Championship in 44 years..

There was no looking back. Manchester City grew and grew strong with Kun topping various charts and breaking records.

Kun has the highest number of Hat-tricks for any player in PL - 12

He is the top scorer for the Club in the History of the Club - 184 and fourth top scorer in the PL History

Every appearance of Kun has been special for us as Cityzens and football fans and we have celebrated it..

No adjectives no jargons required to describe this Legend - Sergio Aguero..The name defines everything..

With a heavy heart we Cityzens are bidding farewell to the legend…Last game at Etihad. One last time in the ManCity jersey at home..

You will be missed Kun..!!!

This will always be your City..💙

Agüerooooo..Agüerooooo…Agüerooooo..💙
