Alright folks, the 5th season of the Indian Premier League is going to start in another hour from now. The first match surely promises to be a superhit – Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians. Wish I was in Chennai to view the spectacle, but we mere mortals have offices to go to and target [...]

A lot has been said and written over the past year about Sachin Tendulkar. Or should I say about the retirement of the great man. Should he be playing, should he play only test cricket, should he play the IPL, should he bid goodbye on a high note
The Indian Premier League is in its 4th season, of course minus Lalit Modi (The Czar of IPL) courtesy BCCI. I am not sure whether getting him out has helped reduce the corruption in IPL, but one thing is for sure it has reduced the oomph out of IPL. Of course IPL is catching people’s [...]
World’s Changing

Just having a look around me makes wonder sometimes. Every thing is changing at an immense pace. The monsoons have passed but rains don’t seem to making understand that. CWG has finally ended in India (not actually at the way we would have liked it to). Cricket India is defeating the Australians is Tests. Orkut [...]

“I was supporting SL, because whenever I supported India they lose, it is a superstition and it worked again today”, were the words of the Man of the Match of the ODI between SriLanka and India at Rajkot, December 15, 2009 (A lot of time ago).

Its time, the fight for the burnt stump bells has started again. The Ashes have started. The first match was as always amazing and nail-biting. The English displayed a wonderful show with the bat. And the Aussies as always were up to the mark, in spite of the not so very strong team. And the [...]
Today morning I woke up to the commentary of Tony Greg – “South Africa needs a couple dozen runs to win this match and the series”. Wow! Australia was defeated this morning by South Africa, now that is some news. The News Channels already started to feed upon it by using attractive headlines. The Australian [...]
In my earlier post today I forgot to add a very important thing. I spoke about the Spirit of Mumbai and the effort by Sachin Tendulkar, but I think the most important issue which I forgot to mention was about the England Cricket Team. I would like to thank all the English Players for coming [...]
A Salute to the Master

Sachin Tendulkar, the name says it all. He has been performing wonderfully for the past 20 years (He just completed 20 years in First Class Cricket). When the man walked in today to play it must have been a different feeling. Not because he was on a path to win but because this game of [...]
