What's happening???

To team India I mean.....what is wrong with them??
Find me a solution I'll give you anything you want..I mean, now that Chappell has made it clear that he wants to stay beyond the WC....all I can say is CRAP!!! What the bloody hell is happening to the team?? Isn't one attack enough?lolz!!
I belong to the school of thought which believes , well, that Mr.Chappell isn't right for the 'MEN IN BLUE'. We need a coach not a dictator. We need a captain who can complement the coach..not one who does what 'Simon(read Greg)says'..... No offense to the bat genius Dravid is..I mean, come on Jammy....We all know u r a gr8 attacking captain! Use your damn brain!
I noe they are playing well now... but will that momentum last? I mean, we have seen that happening too many times..They play well before the WC, when the big time comes..the screw up, nice and tight! OK..2003 was an exception.
Now that Sehwags back in the team, thankfully...DADA is in good nick at the top of the order.Young guns like Uthappa, Karthik and the likes have made themselves counted...the final 15 is going to be a tough ask for the selectors.
These guys should and..better win the series against the Lankans. And hopefully...go on to bring the WC home!
This is gonna be my last blog for a long time to come! Ive got my boards 4m the 5th of march...and there is the Prohibition act coming on @ home.
The Act Says:
1.No computer. No blogs.

2.No new novels.

3.Cut down TV time.

So.. there u have it! the examz are till March 16th. So ,
ALL THE BEST TEAM INDIA!
P.s.: I will try not to screw my exams.

Team Indyeah!!!

Hey guys I am back! After those steamrolling exams.They were ok! So back Iam to talking crap!Please bear with me.....
The other day I was watching , this beautiful movie called,'The Miracle'. It was about the USA Ice hockey team who went into the 1980, Lake Placid Winter Olympics, as underdogs , and ended up winning it! I reminded me of our Cricket team of 1983......pretty similar story.Then ofcourse, like all minds do...mine too wandered on to the fluctuating fortunes of our dear 'MEN IN BLUE'..
Oh! yeah......Men in Blue.....right now, their faces are of almost the same hue....., wins against the Windies have brought us a sigh of relief.Yet the problems remain...the same ones, pace bowling, middleorder, and the gr8 Indian debate:WHO SHOULD OPEN???these problems have beel there 4m the beginning of time..
They are facing a situation, which is of enormous consequences.
Their hiccups are still the same before each World Cup.
'Experiments', says Chappell, who the other day faced hell, while on the way to Cuttack, when was in for an attack. Dravid comndemned this act strongly.Sincerly , I think many millions of Indians loved it!!(I am in the club!)
Most of guys were in the 2003 final. They can use the experience.Problems right now are plenty..They have to come out of those...as soon as possible.As Boycs(read;Geoffrey Boycott),sayz ,Its all about doing the small things right.
I mean look at the Aussie team...just look at the way they bounced back..after losing the Ashes in 2005..they went back analysed their mistakes..and Lo! the Ashes are back with them! They trounced the poms for a 5-0 victory! Ofcourse England's self created problems also helped!
Or the South African team, in 2005 after losing 5-0 in SriLanka..they got themselves on a 20match winning streak!
Things can improve....Another bright spot on the otherwise murky horizon is Dinesh Karthik. He batted with maturity beyond his years..
Now that Yuvi's back, we can have some stability in the middle order.Dada's comeback was really good. Just the way he came back among the runs, his batting was proper.He played some good shots..
So, things can improve. These guys will have to play some nice competitive cricket.And get their basics right!
So, thatz it for now.....More on team Indiaz fortunes in my next blog.
So, all cricket haters can, 'BACK OFF'! Bye!

Please! Itz not anyways, its anyway!!

This is a serious blog.....It deals with a problem prevelent among many Indian youth..No, its not drugs, not sex, HIV is too much for a part-time blogger like me to talk about! So, read on.....
Picture this:
A college campus, with its fair share of kewl dudes and haat babez.A group of such people are talking , thier conversation is, ahem..... well puntuated with "anyways",.. for God's sake, or Pete's sake , the word is anyway!!! Not anywayz!!!Whats happening? Every Khan in the Bollywood flicks says , well you got it right, anyways. Even Big b and apna lambu, Abhishek also say the sickening word!Not to mention Hrithik(err..is that his spelling?).
Now moving onto small screen, everyone from the lovesick boss(read 'Armaan sir' in Jassi ) to the girl on the bike(read Ananya'Ek Ladki Anjaani Si), conveniently say "anyways"!!!The so called Hosts of the many reality shows that have sprung up these days also say "anyways". Sheeesh!!
Why do they do that? Do n't they knew its wrong? Do they keep saying it even though its wrong because its "cool yaar"!Some one has to do something...this is a problem day by day.. even my English lecturer says it!! What is wrong with these people?
Here is an example of the worst of the worst :
One of my highly respectible frnds to watch Hamlet which happens to be his favorite play.All was fine, until, suddenly like a bolt out of the the blue...an electric shock for the poor man....an actor in the middle of his sentence used , well, u noe it don't you??Thank God Shakespeare is not here with us!! They didnt even spare the Bard himself!This is amounting to nothing!
You should try telling them, you will be lucky to escape with only , a volley of abuses thrown at you! These people can do much worse..You might stumble upon people who might just say"whatever", after listening to all that u say, then give you a look which tries to communicate to the people around you ,that you pose a possible threat to them!
So this blog aims to tell all the kewl gals and hot guys(oops isnt it the other way round?), and ofcourse the wannabes, do not use anyways.Its not ANYWAYS its ANYWAY!! This is the only way thats correct!!ANYWAY!ANYWAY and only ANYWAY!!
Ok, thats all from me..folks! Ciao soon. Pass on the message,"Itz anyway!!".

All the worldz a number game......

Who are we? Are we people or numbers? Our world is filled with numbers....When you write an exam, it is your number which is more important not you! In class when teachers are taking attendance its only the roll numbers that they call..not names. Its unnerving! Why are we becoming like this? Dont we have enough time to notice people around us?
I worked as hard as a bee , for my music exam... and when my result comes it is not me...but lo! and behold !...it is not me but, hall ticket no.604023...who passed with good marks! Sad!, isnt it? C'est un abominable!
I will have to write a few more exams very soon.... and in all those its gonna be the number which is important, not me! If I by a miracle manage to break into a Law school, then its my number which is gets into a Law School, not me! This is not funny! This is reality!
Are our lives that insignificant? Do we need to be represented by soulless, characterless numbers? Dont numbers take away our individuality?I mean we are given names so that we have our own distinct identity. So when the results are being displayed, why dont they write our names? Why stick to those nonliving numbers?
They occupy too much space......they say, its easier to look for a number than for a name.God damn them! I say...I think its easier to remember your name than some obnoxius number..like 0023wjr45 or something! These days hall ticket numbers are more important than names! Sheesh! what is the world coming too???????? Is this the sort of number world we will be living in a few years? Maybe parents will name their kids with numbers! So introductions would be like,"Hello, my name is 12095467, what's yours?".I can't imagine that , can you?
I felt strongly about it and thought it would be nice if I Talked about it to u guys.....
On a more brighter side , the Aussies won back the Ashes in style with a Green and Gold wash of 5-0. The first time in 86 years. Now thats what I call cool!Maybe this side can dubbed as 'Ponting's Invincibles', maybe that's now cliched. People called them Invincibles long time back.Whatever it is those guys are totally so amazing. I hope Warne , McGrath, and Langer have a good after retirement life. All three of them were gr8 heros. Kudos to SHANE,GLENN and JUSTIN. I will miss you guys!Adios Amigos!
The Indians have successfully screwed up another test match! Hopefully they will find a panacea to all their problems.
I am hoping for a miracle to save the test! I mean , why send Sehwag to open the innings when Karthik played like a champion in the 1st innings!I am convinced that Guru Greg needs a brain wash! Vengsarkar ,what the hell are you doing in SA?All these problems can be solved later , right now let's all pray for an Indian victory! Come on India, dekhado! Ho ha India Aaya India! Rahul Dravid Zindabad!
K, guys thats all for now! Ciao. See u later!
