World Cup 2011 was won by the entire India, says Gautam Gambhir

April 2 – The date has been etched in the Indian fans’ heart forever. On the same day, India won the World Cup after a long wait of 28 years. MS Dhoni and Gautam Gambhir played match-winning knocks in the night of the final to help the team chase down a mammoth score and scripted history. The country, on Thursday, is celebrating the ninth anniversary of the historic day and recalling the golden moments of the Indian cricket.

Many laud the then Indian skipper for promoting himself to number five ahead of Yuvraj Singh to face Muttiah Muralitharan, It proved to be a game-changing decision as Dhoni went on to smash an unbeaten 91 and his six to seal the game is what everyone remembers.
