IPL has kick started yesterday and so has my craze. Wait, I stand corrected. My craze hasn’t kick started but increased. I am always crazy about cricket. It’s one of those things that makes me forget everything else and just keeps me glued; I guess that’s a total Indian thing. Cricket is more than a religion in our country. Out of  like billions of people I guess there would be

Every year Sachin produces atleast one such knock that makes me like, “WOW! That’s amazing. That’s one of the best innings I have seen. That was perfect and blah blah”. But yesterday for the 1st time in my whole life I was speechless. As soon as Sachin reached his double century, all I did was jump as high as I can and then bow down to him. That’s how incredible

“Enjoyed the match Harini”, my friend asked me yesterday. “It was ok”. “Ok?? You kidding me?? It was brilliant. It was such a close finish… like you always prefer them”. “I still dint like it”. “Why”? He asked me with so much of confusion that I went ahead and explained him why for an hour. I won’t deny that I did enjoy the match. I enjoyed how close Sri Lanka came to

I was rooting for Pakistan for

Yippee! We won!! DC are the Champs!! Gilly is the Golden Player! The match started with my worst nightmare i.e to see Gilly get out for a duck. I know lighting doesn’t strike twice but i was so hoping it does. Its said that cricketers are superstitious. Like Sachin wearing his left pad first, dada carrying a pic of his guru in his pocket. I remember Sachin staying in the bathroom and staying put there till

I am so happy!! My TV is back and thankfully at the right time. I got to see The Unleashed Gilly yesterday night. I had not seen him play like that in a long. Actually I was on phone with one of my friends and we wanted Gilly to come out with the squash ball in his glove and just blaze off like he did in the world cup final.

IPL Fever!

My TV has gone for repair and things are getting boring down here. I miss my TV. I miss watching my favorite shows and most of all I miss watching the IPL matches. I feel like I am missing something major. I guess I am one of those kinds in whose daily routine watching IPL are added. I don’t know what I will do when IPL gets over. I will think
