All that ends well...

 THE final is now finally over. It has not ended well for the Indian cricket team. The result is quite unhappy for the Indian fans. Discussions, dissections, analyses have already begun, and would go on for quite some time as such a defeat hurts hugely.

In my opinion, however, there are very many positivities emerging out of this match. This THE loss teaches some winning strategies is the real moral in my opinion. Let us here explore a few lessons this match may teach us. Well, to begin with, for sure, such a match washes clean the accusation of match fixing. Thus the sporting spirit sure wins, whosoever may win the 'endgame'.

Equally happy I am that bookies must have lost hugely, much worse than the Indian team. That warms the cockles of my heart because such malpractices most malign the game!

Yet again this match proves how in critical situations, we must keep our nerve. One must not cave in, get pessimistic so very soon. One must have hence three or four foolproof  alternatives ready, in case the obvious fails.

Strategising matters the most is the real message of this match. The way the Australian team organised the fielding  exemplifies the need of this quality the most. They appeared more 'prepared' apparently. Never take the contexts (including the opponents) lightly is the real message of this match in my opinion.

Last but not the least, the real message this decisive contest provides is that we must never ever rely on or relax, given the past glories and laurels. Every day has to be a new beginning yet again.

Such resilience, such mental toughness would be the need of the hour as this century enfolds further. The technological speed is unbelievable, and is going to script and sculpt individual destinies definitively and decisively. Only when we thus 'make' ourselves thus/this strong, can all end well in the years to come!

Pratima@Every situation, every context may teach us important life lessons we must imbibe so that "all that ends well" is well!
