Desi Twitter remembers India's World Cup 2011 win on its 9th anniversary

People on Twitter celebrate the 9 year anniversary of India's World Cup 2011 win as they talk about everything they loved about the match.

Indiaaa, India! The stadium bled blue, the cheers rose high and filled the air with pride and joy. India lifted the tournament trophy for the 2nd time after 1983 which was under the captaincy of Kapil Dev. The Indian team who won the match against Sri Lanka played their best and dedicated the win to one of the finest cricketers Sachin Tendulkar. It's been nine years since their win and desi Twitter can't get over how former Captain MS Dhoni finished the World cup 2011 match in style and brought the trophy home.

Here's how desi Twitterati shared their memory of the World cup 2011 match:
