I have been out and about these days and didn’t quite keep up with the events in the blogosphere.
I’ve just discovered Ashu’s blog today.
You’d say, “So what’s the deal?”
The deal is she is a guhl. Just like me. I’m so happy to have a female companion in this male-driven (cricket) world.
Welcome to the mad world […]

I never noticed before that Nasser Hussain bears a striking resemblance to Vladimir Putin, and so does Gibbs to Bruce Willis.
Cool stuff.

One of the advantages of being a successful professional is that people listen in on your ideas, good or bad.
John Buchanan, Australia’s passing coach, has a brand new idea to transform world cricket.

I really don’t. Especially when they don’t know what they are saying. When they shouldn’t be saying it. When they don’t have the right to say it. When they are simply saying it to get some cheap publicity. Like a Basit Ali did.
Malik’s learning, but as I stated on Ottayan’s blog, this series is from […]

And I mean it.
Some may not be ready to hail Brett Lee as Australia’s new “spearhead” yet, but he’s cut through the Sri Lankan innings like a torpedo, ripping apart 4 wickets, putting SL on the backfoot completely.
Off the field, he’s signed a deal to compose the World Cup 2011 theme song. Don’t forget: he’s […]

Thanks to the Diwali frenzy, I missed all of the Australia-SL action and most of the second ODI b/w India and Pak. But I am trying to keep up with all that’s happening by doing the rounds of Stuart, Uncle J, and JC’s blogs. (I am shocked that no one’s blogging about SA-NZ. Oh, […]

It’s not looking all good. Actually, it’s quite annoying.
* The Green Park has been declared a no-flying zone. (Argh. You need to go tell that to the birds.)

Kris Srikkanth and my dad are more than happy. Their deepest wish has come true.
–
BCCI, in a hasty attempt to resolve the captaincy crisis following Tendulkar’s refusal, have passed on the hat to Kumble. They had several options beside Kumble: Dhoni, Laxman, and Ganguly. Not going for Ganguly and Laxman is understandable, but they must […]

I found this site interesting — sort of a Frappr map for cricket matches.
Thanks Reto for bringing this to my notice!

India vs. Pakistan: 2nd ODI at Mohali
Context #1 Akhtar’s opening over. Ganguly smacks a four across cover point off a short delivery.
Rameez Raja:
When Gul comes in, he’ll teach Akhtar how to bowl at length.
Ganguly is played on by Akhtar over the next ball, which is by no means short.
Context #2 Sachin and Gambhir […]
