Cricket In My Blood: Indian Cricket’s enfant terrible
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2007/10/indian-crickets-enfant-terrible.html
Cricket In My Blood. Saturday, October 6, 2007. Indian Cricket’s enfant terrible. It poured heavy in. Match abandoned. The guilt was now off me and I was able to enjoy the remaining part of our trip. While I trundled along the east coast, the Indian team headed towards the west of. To the coastal town of. And rains decided to chase them there too. His on-field behavior is no more seen in the same vein as it was when he danced Kathakali alongside an ever so garrulous and annoying Andre Nel, after hitting ...

Cricket In My Blood. Friday, May 1, 2009. I feel like a jackass. This post was supposed to go up long back but I procrastinated. Had I posted on time the post would've shown my cricketing acumen and foresight :) ). Uthappa on bench will augur well RCBers. The sooner the better. Ps Finally Uthappa was made to sit out and RCB won the match. Hurrah! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Poet Traveler. Reader. Marketeer. Writer. Photographer. Wanderer. Cricketer. Thinker.

Cricket In My Blood: India-Pakistan Encounters – Tale Of Diminishing Zeal?
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2007/11/india-pakistan-encounters-tale-of.html
Cricket In My Blood. Sunday, November 18, 2007. India-Pakistan Encounters – Tale Of Diminishing Zeal? The current series is the 4. So, what is this talk of diminishing interest? Let’s face it, fans have moved on! Wins I don’t mind for both the teams have played out of their skins? Issue but at least frequent meetings are reducing the animosity like nothing else. Agreed the just concluded ODI series failed to generate enthusiasm but the only palpable reason for that is a very lackluster Pakistani side.

Cricket In My Blood: Laxman Deserves A Better Deal
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2007/12/laxman-deserves-better-deal.html
Cricket In My Blood. Saturday, December 1, 2007. Laxman Deserves A Better Deal. Note: This piece was written before Laxman's magnificent century at the Eden Gardens against Pakistan on Saturday, it just didn't go up on time). Since his epic effort at Eden Gardens Laxman has played many a vital knock in the test arena, resurrecting the team from hopeless situations it found itself in, invariably down 4-5 wickets. He might not have scored a couple of dozen centuries but his silent contributions, often ...

Cricket In My Blood: Does match-fixing still plague sub-continental cricket?
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2007/11/does-match-fixing-still-plague-sub.html
Cricket In My Blood. Thursday, November 1, 2007. Does match-fixing still plague sub-continental cricket? With the tailenders at the crease Pakistan had their backs against the wall. And the chokers this time were in no mood to give up on the Biryani. Served on a silver platter, the tail was cleaned up in no time. Pakistan lost 6 wickets for 20 runs, when the pitch had no evil, bowling was no where close to being caustic, all the batsmen’s doing. Reckless batting or burgeoning bank balances?

Cricket In My Blood: April 2009
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Cricket In My Blood. Saturday, April 25, 2009. The matches have been pretty interesting thusfar with the race for semifinal berth hotting up. And some fine performances from those thought of as ill-fit for this format of the game. Dhoni's frequently delivered banality, 'it depends on how you play on that particulr day', stands true in this format too. Back to the cricket Mumbai Indians just wrecked the match for themselves. They were going pretty fine till the half way mark and then began the collaps...

Cricket In My Blood: October 2007
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Cricket In My Blood. Tuesday, October 30, 2007. The Wall – now cornered. And the present now will soon be the past. The order is rapidly fading. The first one now will later be last. For the times, they are a changing. Dilip Vengsarkar’s pet these days. Surely, one failed series is no indicator of a suddenly arrived old-age or the lack of class and hunger for runs, then what goes inside the minds of Vengsarkar and his men? Is it the twenty-20 triumph that has gone in to the selectors’ heads? Such people ...

Cricket In My Blood: Smell of the good ol’ days
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2007/10/smell-of-good-ol-days.html
Cricket In My Blood. Sunday, October 7, 2007. Smell of the good ol’ days. Australians go in to the 4. One-day match of the series at. With a 2-0 lead and all eyes on an unassailable one. The start of the match is a good 12 hours away yet it has evoked emotions galore within me. The match is taking place at the sector-16 stadium,. And not at the one in Mohali (PCA). Have only known PCA and the poor sector-16 stadium got lost in the ranks of BCCI’s redundant zonal policies. But the sector-16 stadium will a...

Cricket In My Blood: Breaking news (not)
http://cricketinmyblood.blogspot.com/2009/05/breaking-news-not.html
Cricket In My Blood. Sunday, May 3, 2009. Robin Uthappa can't bat for nuts. Just batted a maiden over from Malinga when the same bowler went for 17 runs in the previous over. Uthappa is Bangalore's John Buchanan. Strange thing that,he batted a maiden over from Malinga,could be the reason of pace variation by him,but good to tell. November 22, 2010 at 8:27 PM.
