India broke the New Zealand World Cup curse in great style in front of a packed Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.

Mohammed Shami has been India’s man of the tournament and he was at his absolute best on an atypical Wankhede pitch, it was completely bereft of grass and was dry and slow. But Shami’s talents are such that he can make the ball talk in any circumstances, and he is revelling in the faith bestowed upon him by his captain. His 7-57 will go down as one of the most remarkable performances by an Indian. His talent has been rightfully awarded with great success by the almighty.
