Venue : Wankhede stadium ,Mumbai

Match: Mumbai Indians vs Bangalore royal challengers

I have never been to the stadium to watch the cricket match. It was my one of the dreams to go and watch the match at the stadium. However, I have never taken any steps in accomplish that dream. However, in the world where everything happens according to wish of someone, my dream came true on Sunday 20 April 2008.

I went to a restaurant on Sunday afternoon for lunch. To my surprise I met one of my colleagues who told me about the extra ticket he had as one of his friend could not come to the stadium. He offered me that ticket and I readily accepted the offer without any second thought.

At 6:30 pm, we were in the stadium. Sitting on the staircase and I watched the practice session before the start of play. My dream came true that Sunday night. We had managed to get glimpse of most of the iconic players except SachinTendulkar.

It was an amazing sight to watch the match in the stadium, which had fans all over the stadium. It was an unforgettable moment in my life. It was really an amazing experience.

Followed by a fabulous pyrotechnics show, which filled the stadium with smoke, the match started at 8:00 pm and we started cheering to the boundaries hit by the players. After some time we were exhausted and at the start of second innings, we all sat on the staircase and did the cheering.
