People, who had been holding their breath, erupted into frenzy as soon as Mahendra Singh Dhoni hit a huge six to surpass Sri Lanka total of 274.
Firecrackers and fireworks displays were witnessed in the skies over the city when the match was over, in celebration of Indias victory against Sri Lanka in the summit clash at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
During the match the streets of Aizawl looked deserted as most of the residents were glued to their Television sets. There was notable silence as Indias chase started disastrously when big hitter Virender Sehwag was out in the very first over without any run scored.
The trend is significant in Aizawl known for its craze over football.
