Sporty…

May 3, 2008 5:23 pm

Spent Thursday and Friday playing more sports than I have played in the last 5 years… Ten times over :P

Played Volley Ball for the first time in my life, did a decent job(at least my team mates said so :P ). Its a nice game, odd that I never played it before.

Cricket was what I was looking forward for the most, sadly I was really injured tired with all the Volley Ball action that I really messed up my bowling :P My fielding was comparatively much better, took a nice running catch in the outfield. That catch was one of the best I have taken ever :) Batting was something that came easily, Ended up playing a good knock but sadly we were like 6 runs short at the end of the match

Shuttle and Table Tennis was something I was not expecting to do really well in. It was all in good fun though :)

My whole body has been hurting for the past 2 days but I just loved the feeling of all that adrenaline. I am going to make a point of doing this more regularly :)

Vandalism…

April 28, 2008 3:10 pm

I was looking at the Bangalore Royal Challenger’s page in wikipedia to find where todays match is being held. Guess what I found! Read the Result column next to today’s match!

Bangalore Royal Challengers... Schedule!

My instinctive reaction was that I started laughing! BRC is my team and I really support them but this is so wrong(a little funny though) :P For ppl who did not know, Chennai Super Kings are clearly the strongest team in the IPL so far and the Royal Challengers have faced a fair share of defeat.

Ps: This constitutes vandalism doesn’t it? How do I report it?

UPDATE: The vandalism is removed! Was just about the do it(after figuring out how :P ) and someone already did it :) Looked at the old revisions of changes and that moron who did the vandalism looks like a top class loser!

Going Cricket Crazy…

April 15, 2008 4:23 pm

I have to admit that I am very excited about the IPL(Indian Premier League). I remember asking a friend of mine about 4 years back why we dont have an equivalent to EPL for cricket in India. Well now we have two leagues!

ICL was not that interesting coz Bangalore did not get a team :( but IPL with the Bangalore Royal Challengers is looking like a cooler league to me :P

The team looks good with a mix of young and experienced players… Someone had commented saying that the Bangalore team would be better playing test cricket rather than T20. With some world class T20 specialists, All Rounders and The Wall, I feel pretty safe supporting them :P

Anyway now you know where my allegiance lies :P

What It Means To Be Champions?

September 27, 2007 5:33 pm

I know this post is a couple of days late but its just been running on my head all the while :) Firstly India Wont the Twenty20 World Cup on Monday evening and ever since there has been a craze sweeping the nation. I can go on about how people went nuts, Politicians got hungrier, Newspapers became Cricketer’s Photo Galleries and how news channels had reporters smiling all day… But this post is about my few minutes past the glorious event.
