Keeping aside all the hoopla , we present you some facts which would make you go 'OH. MY. GOD...' on hearing what people actually did in order to bring some good luck for Team India.

2. We all know that 70% of the stadium crowd was Indian, and a major lot was from Pune, India. A large group of businessman, builders, fans and developers had booked tickets for today's match way back in December, some even had them booked since February last year as reported by TOI.
3. One of prominent team player Mohammed Shami's father held prayers at his home where 11 clerics were called in to offer prayers for all 11 prayers ahead of today's semi-final match.
4. A saree trader in Indore went to the extent of preparing special World Cup Sarees for Team India to wish them luck ahead of their semi-final match today.
Guess, love has some really weird ways to be doled out for Team India!
