Beleaguered Indians found themselves exuberant on Monday following a historic victory in the T20 World Cup over Australia, a triumph that infused a rare wave of euphoria throughout the nation. "With every ball, every run, every boundary, every wicket, I wasn`t able to hold my emotions," remarked Akash Sen, a university student. "It was late at night, but I was jumping, screaming, I was not able to contain myself," the 20-year-old recounted to Mid-Day.
The euphoria stemmed from India capitalising on Australia`s subpar bowling performance to amass 205-5 in their innings—a historic joint-highest total against the Yellow Army in a T20 World Cup game, and subsequently bowling out the 2023 champions for 187.
