First take a look at these pictures:

When Virender Sehwag stepped in to bat today, little did he know that inspite of it being a belter of a track, it was not his day. When a person is blessed with a miracle, he seldom gets to share the accolades with others.
That actually did not turn [...]

Thumbnail image for India vs South Africa 2nd ODI Preview

The two teams face off again. On another belter at Gwalior. I reckon I need to find the origins of the word belter as soon as I churn out this post.
Both teams have already arrived, and the game begins in about 200 minutes from now. Gwalior has been a great hunting ground for the Indians. [...]

What a great year to have a Twat

February 23, 2010

It’s not often that I compliment Australian cricketers, unless they are good looking of course. And it’s definitely not often that I compliment arrogant little pricks but Shane Watson has made it hard to help myself.

Prompted by limerick writer and general people pisser offer David Bird yesterday as to what my problem is with the national side and what exactly I would change I had to think a little. Not so much about what I would change but about what it is about that I hate so much.

Was I right…maybe

February 17, 2010

I should be upset. I should, but I am not. In fact, I have a smug grin on my say and I don’t hate to say it but I told you so. South Africa are quite average. They lack killer instinct and, they’ve tied the noose…all they need to do is choke now.
Good friend Purna [...]

Cricket’s very own Valentines Day

February 14, 2010

Today is Valentines Day, you know that already.
If cricketers were to celebrate the day with colleagues, forget past differences and proverbially kiss and make up, who would they pick?
I have a few ideas, I am sure you do two.
The aim is to find the top 5 cricketing individual rivalries which got ugly and ask them [...]
