Multi-cultural Enviroment

I have had 2 new guy move into my office today. And now it is a truly multi-cultural working environment. It is made up of one American, one Chinese, one Belgian, one Iranian and me the Indian. Interesting times ahead.

Beginning of the end

Sorry for another cricket post guys, but I really love this game.

So it has begun. The end which we all knew will come one day, but hoped never to happen. The sunset of the career of the famed Indian trio. Sachin, Dravid and Ganguly, the end looks near with Dravid giving up captaincy on 14th September 2007. The possibility of Sachin calling it a day for one-dayers at the end of the year. And Ganguly is defiantly not far behind. All we can hope now is we find talent at least half as good as these 3 guys. Also one small request to the BCCI, let these guys retire on their terms, they deserve it. Don’t insult this group by dropping them at any point. And to the trio “Adios Amigos”. Thanks a lot for entertaining us for so many years.

Akhtar Vs Asif

Well came in this morning to read a amazing story

Easily one of the best in recent times. Looks like the time when we used to play cricket as kids at the local ground. I really would like to know what was going on Akhtar's mind during the incident. This is my interpretation of the state of mind:

"Man this dude bowls better then me and does not get injured as often as me. I tried to drug him to get him out of the team and still did not work. What do i do with this kind of talent. Wait Wait...... if he does not get injured i will injure him. Where is that club the call a bat. Ahhhhh there it is. hey Asif look here. Bam on his thigh. That must keep him down for a few months. HEHEHEHE."

Sadly one of the biggest loss to modern day cricket.
