I couldn’t resist blogging these two slideshows that have been uploaded to slideshare. A visual tribute to India’s stunning run at the T20 World Cup. By popular demand from our developers, this has been also been featured on the slideshare homepage for the world to see (much to the bewilderment of Jon, our CTO, who is an American and doesn’t “get” cricket from baseball) Enjoy! (the first one has the Chak De India audio as well)
This victory is hugely inspiring for all Indians. So what are the learnings for Indian technology startups from this victory? I can think of quite a few!

“So what are the learnings for Indian technology startups from this victory?”:
Team spirit, Confidence and Listening to each & every person. “Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success”. India Failed in World cup 2007 which changed the direction to Success of T20 World Cup.
Good one Mahesh….I like the “listening to each person” bit
Let me add:
- your (prior) long term track record matters little; what matters is in the short term, what have you achieved…
- being an underdog helps…people expect little from you
1. Be a Maverick – aka Sreesanth
2. Dont be afraid to take Risks – Joginder in the last over
3. Exuberate Confidence – The way the Indian bench rose up in cheers after scoring 157 (which in this format could have been judged an easy target)
Go India.
Dhoni telling the guys to enjoy their game. Maybe that’s why they did not get bogged down with the pressure. And the pressure of this 20/20 format is really too much!!
