Thank god, the weather has cleared up, it's a bright and sunny day in Mohali! Billion indian hearts beating for 11 boys in blue to make india proud! Mohali!

Siddharth: Good moooooorning! world cup semi-final! Ind vs Pak! If you're working, my condolences! Not to rub it in, but I'm not!!;) Go India goooo! A thought for (Saurabh) Ganguly, (Rahul) Dravid & (Anil) Kumble. This is as much their semifinal as any of the players, according to me :) These three along with Sachin (Tendulkar), made this Indian team what it is today. So for Sachin and for all of team india, a big hurrah!!!

Manoj Bajpayee: Chak de phatte! good luck to the indian team!

Atul Kulkarni: Rajnikant was challenged to 'intoxicate' the entire nation for four days. He just arranged a Indo-Pak cricket match........ hmmmm..........

Sujoy Ghosh: I don't understand cricket much.. but I'm sure india will win today. Ours is the most kickass country ever, she'll win anything.

Pritish Nandy: I was wrong. Not all of India will seek sick leave today. 60% have already applied for casual leave. Was told that no one has applied for leave today. Felt very proud of PNC till I heard there is a circular out that anyone can go post 1 p.m.

Kunal Kohli: Landed in Chandigarh, great weather. No rain. Ready for the match of the century.

Kailash Kher: Whole country is at stand still everyone is glued to Mohali or TV set.. This semifinal is really happening.. Boys rock it. Go India Go!
