Why care about the Indian Oil Cup? (and some secret stuff…)

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.
India called in the reserve bench on ocassion of the last trivial

The BCCI cracks down on Six and Out. Net

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.
I have […]

Ashu is my friend

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 […]

Cricket Lookalikes

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

I don’t like blabbermouths…

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 […]

Lee is in the Air

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 […]

Look forward to meeting Chacha

Donned in a long green robe, a white fluffy beard cupping his chin, and a crescent resting on his head, Chacha Cricket, traslated from Urdu as Uncle Cricket, is perhaps the game’s craziest fan. He follows the Pakistani cricket team down to every nook of the world (the rumor has it that PCB pays him […]

And you thought Asians don’t sledge? Think again

They sledge all the time.

Oh, and come to think of it, where’s Munaf, the prodigy, these days?

Ganguly blew it. Totally.

My favorite. Some nerve.

Cute

The famous jellybean aftermath. Have yet to make sense of this one, though.

Jokes can win you matches– even against the Ozzies.

Don’t get me wrong. I am not too happy with how the series has turned out. But as they say, a win is a win is a win is a….
Soon after Karthik hit the winning four, he was questioned by one of the commentators, “It was pretty tight when you walked in. But it looked […]

It’s Sunday and I can’t fake it.

Okay, I know I have been faking all this while that I have practically no interest in the Future Cup, and I have intentionally refrained from babbling about it (until it became absolutely necessary).
BUT
No school. Sunday. Autumn break. Id (= no power cuts). Well, ohkay. I give up. I’ll go and watch some cricket!
Live […]
