A lot of people might not remember but today is the day when the Indian team in 2011 picked up the ICC world cup trophy for us. Today is the day when Indians after 28 years got the opportunity to pick up the ICC world cup trophy.
But controversy has sparked when Gautam Gambhir on a reply to ESPN’s tweet of being nostalgic with the wonderful six that Dhoni had hit in Nuwan Kulasekara’s ball remains a spotlight.
Gautam Gambhir in his tweet replied to ESPN that the sports channel should stop with their obsession with a six as the entire team was responsible for India’s win, they should stop pinning the victory on one person.
Here’s Gautam Gambhir’s tweet on the matter:
Just a reminder @ESPNcricinfo: #worldcup2011 was won by entire India, entire Indian team & all support staff. High time you hit your obsession for a SIX. pic.twitter.com/WPRPQdfJrV

ESPN Cricinfo, however, tweeted, ” On this day in 2011, a shot that sent millions of Indians to jubilation.”
