Indian curry in Caribbean


In the midst of the Swine flue where the chances of the tour being called off was a possibility, we head towards Sabina Park-Kingston for a wonderful ODI series between India and West Indies.
There is news about the sad demise of king of Pop Michael Jackson.Our sincere tribute to MJ.

India would be playing with out some of the star players yet Gayle has his apprehensions against the Indians as he strongly believes that on a given day, any player can change the course of the play for India. Hope that our player creates havoc for Gayle and Co.
It has been sorts of comeback for Aashish Nehra afer a long time courtesy injury to Zaheer.
While we have a look at one of the videos where Dhoni had dropped a sitter on Nehra’s bowling, there was a serious piece of thought being given by Nehra to Dhoni. MS was mere a wicketkeeper that time around. If one were to see that video again, Nehra getting picked in the Indian squad would be a far off possibility as Ms is now a captain.
Strangely, Nehra has never been dropped due to bad performance. His inability to stay fit through out the series has always worked against him, resulting into bring dropped.

Good time for Abhishek Nayar to show his skills as he had demonstrated while playing for Mumbai Indians. He is a classic left hander who can do both job attack and hold the fort when ever required.

Apart from the Calypso king Gayle, the player to be watched out is Dwayne Bravo.
If one bravo was not enough, there’s one more to join the party, yes Darren Bravo, Dwayne’s brother. We haven’t seen the exploits of the debutant Darren yet, so let’s see what he has got under his head.

So let’s enjoy in the series in Calypso style – Ho la la la la lu le yo!!

Enter The Final!!

Second time in a row Pakistan have stormed into the finals of the T-20 World Cup.
Last time around it was agaist India that they lost the nail biting finals.Time and again they have proved that they are the most unpredictable team.
Losing big matches has been the fate of South Africa, and this translates into a fact that they are not the big match players.They are not just able to enter the final of any format of the world cup.

Out of all the test playing nations,Pakistan was the only team that did not participate in the IPL T20.May be that colud be the reason that the players are hungry and raring to go for the final.

So it colud be against West Indies or Srilanka that the Pakistan will have to give their final shot on this Great Sunday!!
Which team are you supporting??

Out Goes Johnnie Boy- John Buchanan

The after effects of the IPL T20 saw the men blue struggle to get a place in Semi finals of the ICC T20 world cup. yet another such after effect is the Ouster of the Kolkata Knight Riders coach John Buchanan.
The KKR team fared very bad in the IPL. The owner of the the franchise was very much frustrated with the teams performance. Sacking of John Buchanan is the out come of the frustration.
The theory of having seperate captains for Test and ODI's was his peace of mind. It could be said it was a good idea, but some would think otherwise.

One point of consideration is that the coach can only show the vision, he cant actually be on the ground and take things forward. So blaming the coach for teams bad perfoamance and sacking is the bad idea.

ICC-T20 World Cup

The current ICC-T20 has not been as interesting as one would have thought to be.
Australia could not make to the Super 8's.India is already out of the tournament.
Pakistan made a late back door entry by playing some superb cricket.
South Africa and WEst nidies could be the eventual winners.
The indian team has showed some dismal performance in the tournamemt which has proved to be very costly.
The Indians started as favorites as the players were in top form during the IPL-T20.
The success and fame in the IPL-T20 has a major role towards such bad performance in the T20. The players got carried away. Big moolah is in the minds rather than cricket.
Buck up Indians- What if we could not do better in ICC- T20 World Cup, we have the West Indies Tour ahead.. Make amends Men In Blue!!

Aane De!!


After days of having a go at each others team, we are back united to support our ‘Men in Blue’ as we inch closer towards the second edition of the ICC T20 World Cup in England.

The irony of the fact is that none of the top senior player of Indian Team would feature in the T20 World Cup even though they played instrumental role in the season 2 of IPL.
This holds true in case of Australia as well as both Haydos and Gilly, the top run getters in the IPL have already retired.

It was mixed bag for us as far as practice matches goes with one win and one loss. Strange fact is that India hasn’t won any T20 game against New Zealand while against Pakistan hasn’t lost any world cup match (all formats).

It’s going to be a happy headache for the selectors to pick the team as the bench strength is very strong and all youngsters raring to go. Rohit, Gambhir, Jadeja has shown their shine with bat in practice matches while Ishant, RP and Ojha need to carry their form with ball from IPL to this tournament.

With India playing as defending champions..there’s nothing to defend. “Yeh Cup Kahin Nahin Jayega.”

So what are we waiting for, Aane de!!
