I came across this interesting piece of fact. They say that Bangladesh is such a happy hunting ground for cricketers. Obviously it is, but what if we consider players making their debut in Bangladesh? What if we consider just Indian cricketers? The result is surprising. I did some research and this is what I […]

As if this post was necessary. As if I haven’t told all of you that Bangladesh should be given some time before they are sent to top flight cricket. But no one would listen. Yet another loss. And that too against the biggest give-hope-to minnows team in the world - Pakistan.
I wanted to write […]

England win by an innings and 9 runs. New Zealand were rendered helpless and found wanting on the fourth day of the Third Test. We had earlier reported how KP saved England on the first day! Maybe that proved to be the catalyst for a really inspired performance by the Poms.
Making 364 in the […]

Kevin Pietersen has been oft criticized for being too irrational and inconsistent! But not today. He was rational and scored 115. While a few of my friends are mulling over the IPL, i thought it was time to move on in life. Everything you love might go away, but this one will come back.
Back to […]

When something good happens for your career, you are really happy. When two things happen at the same time, you are ecstatic. It happened to Shane Watson, and he is overjoyed! The first thing was his excellent performance in the IPL with the winners Rajasthan Royals. The second thing was an injury to Matthew Hayden, […]
