Paddle Sweep Redesigned

September 8, 2010

You might notice that a lot of things have changed over here, the looks being at the foremost. It was an impulsive decision and once which could have been risky. But here we are, and its not bad, is it? For every achievement, there are people who are involved and need to be thanked. This [...]

the keyless conundrum

April 17, 2010

i know that you haven’t noticed, but I have to let you know why I wasn’t posting for the last week or so. There are two main reasons. The first one was that I was too involved in the IPL to write about it, and anyways there is an overload of it among other great [...]

what non-cricketing bullshit

September 9, 2009

i have seen a lot of downs in my life as a cricket blogger. I have had my posts stolen, and the guy who stole them got a higher revenue out of that. I have been pulled up for plagiarism (a false claim, of course). I have had to switch between blog a little too [...]

Langer loves flip flops

July 26, 2009

I am not talking about them slippers here. Maybe he loves them too, but I do not give a fuck about that. Justin Langer remarked yesterday that he would play in the third test if Australia needed him. Today, he refutes those charges! Tomorrow he will come to the ground in his whites. The next [...]

On that day, I had promised myself that I would not watch any India-Bangladesh world cup fixture in the future until India won.

Rohit SHARMA, you have changed my mind

June 5, 2009

by Jandler aka Ankit Mishra First of all, I would apologise to the BCC! members about not turning up for the live event as I promised.

I am live, are you alive?

June 3, 2009

by Ankit Mishra Yes, it has been a long break for both me and this blog. A lot of things have happened since. A lot of things very bizarre. Take this for example: “Bangalore and Deccan reached the finals of the IPL.” The team placed last in the previous edition has won the tournament this [...]

Terror Blasts, and no Cricket

December 4, 2008

it has been a long time since I last posted. The reason being, I was a bit disillusioned by the terror attacks in my city, Mumbai. I would come up with posts soon. I am totally safe, for anyone who might care. The Free Hit – where all you will get is serious cricket
