What’s up, folks? Don’t tell me you are OK with Kirsten being named India coach!
*He’s only 40. Some of the seniors in Team India are well past 35. Do you think Kirsten will be taken seriously? I think that’s doubtful.
*He brings no impressive coaching credentials. Has he even coached […]

…would you rope Yuvraj Singh in for the second Test?
On the one hand, I feel that he’s in the form of his life, and we need to tap in on that. But on the other hand, yes, I understand we can’t let go of our long-time trusted Laxman either. Ganguly’s […]

It’s official: Kenya are world’s most successful ODI side. And no, this is not a joke. Their success rate so far in 2007 has been 77%, better than Australia’s 73 something.
They played 17 ODIs in all and won 13. Only two matches were against Test-playing nations–England and […]

Rudi Koertzen apologized to Kumar Sangakkara after he notoriously gave him out off a Stuart Clarke bouncer. Courtesy calls are appreciated, but what use was it? The damage had been done.

Pakistan skipper Malik feels that their win in the 5th ODI has “balanced” both the teams and raised his team’s confidence big time. We’ll know soon that he’s highly mistaken.

I must be the next one in line after Vengasarkar and Shahrukh Khan. I have slammed them for their pathetic pitches time and again, I have debated over their selections, played accomplice to their other critters, and done loads of other things that can humiliate and agitate the forces that be at the BCCI.

Australian bowlers strove fruitlessly to send Sangakkara packing, but eventually, it took an umpire to do that.
King, as he’s known over here at Six and Out, gets our Hero spot this week, above all the Phils, Husseys, and Yuvrajs, for his could-have-been match-winning 192.

Two weeks ago a doctor told me there is a mass the size of my fist in my abdomen. They call it non hodgkins Lymphoma.

So, India has an unbeatable lead in the Indian Oil Cup. 3-1.
While the media is surely going to go gaga over it, I’ll admit we aren’t faking any joy over or interest in it. That we are actually discussing genetics at school these days should be a clue to how much interested we really are […]
