Viru You Little Beauty!

Just watched the Delhi vs Deccan Match. The Deccan Chargers started out slow, but picked up later and reached 142, thanks to a certain Mr Rohit Sharma, about whom I would have loved to talk about now. But alas. Limelight is a very narrow lane. Only one can steal it. It was Virender Sehwag’s night. […]

Sachin and Federer: My Two Heroes

eat Tennis, drink Tennis, sleep Tennis
I have a secret to share. I have been following the tennis over this week. And not cricket. Don’t worry. Cricket is still my first love.
Anyway, Roger lost. That happens every once in a while, but it usually doesn’t in a Grand Slam. Djoker got the better of him. Good […]

How old are you, Rahul Dravid, India No. 3?

eat Cricket, drink Cricket, sleep Cricket

Rahul Dravid is a giant.
He has close to 10, 000 runs in both the versions of the game. That’s a lot of burden for someone aged 35.
Yes, folk, Rahul Dravid just turned 35 on Januay 11th. So here’s wishing him a very happy birthday (belated, of course)
India’s best No. 3, […]

Murali takes 1000 wickets

Eat Cricket, Drink Cricket, Sleep Cricket
Give him five more years, and this headline might be doing the rounds of newspapers one day.
Anyway, we knew this had to happen. The question was, when would it happen? Stand up boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, and let’s give Muttiah Muralitharan a big round of applause on […]

Hero of the Week: King Sangakkara

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.
I’ve posted this before, but I am going to post his […]

Heroes (read: losers) of the Week

This space is meant for honoring the players who do well and bring good to the sport, but I am in no mood for honoring today, that’s fer sure.

The guy with the brown (or is it golden, or golden+brown, you better judge) streaks is one of the […]

Why Dhoni is Cool.

This post is slightly inspired by Uncle J. Rod’s post on Dhoni. I thought it was time for my take, too.
I had kind of always admired him, not in the girly way, but for his swashbuckling batting knocks and also, er, um, his locks.
Dhoni’s Cricketing Career’s Top Three Highlights:
1. He first sprang to worldwide […]

Friday Special: Heroes of the Week

This week two players have made it to the Friday Special feature.
Yuvraj Singh
The six straight sixes he hit has sealed his name in the Indian cricket history. And he can also keep the fastest fifty record to himself for a while.

Brett Lee
Wow, Brett “Brute” Lee is back. I think we need to […]
