Our crashing out chances from T20 World Cup

At least 20 runs were lost during the phase when Dhoni was trying to just concentrate on taking singles.
Hey this is T20 mahi. And you became captain for your ability to make big scores 'faaassst'. And now it is your batting basically which lost us those 20 runs.
Also, need to get RP in to play in place of Ishant who just is not getting into the wicket taking scheme. We needed wickets and Rohit and Raina did not even bowl a single over. Dunno what is going on in Dhoni's mind.
But yes of course it is very easy to criticise when all plans and strategies fall apart and very easy to applaud the 'genius' when all of it just works.
So for the fans and the Indian media, it is extremely important to keep up their support for 'OUR' team and not go overboard (as they usually do) in their criticism if we do not make it to the semis (which looks really likely now) especially seeing our dismal run rate. Lets hope that this 'bump' is taken in the right spirit by all for charting out a better future.

For those who love cricket

If you have not been following this... you better coz there is hardly anything as good as this currently in the world of cricket. Well Prince of Patiala in his full flow comes close... but not exactly :-) Love to know your comments (and hear your laughter over phone is you would care to call me to gossip on this)

Yes - Aussies out!

After a looong looong time... really a looong time India team start a world championship as the favorites.
And after a looooong looooong time.... really looooong looooong time the Aussie sissies start a tournament NOT as favorites.
They tried to argue and speculate that they should be considered among the favorites, but that was not to be and they are KICKED nay BUTT-ed out in the first round itself.
I am delighted. Server those arrogant arses well. Hope they learn some humility and sportsmanship now.
It seemed Auussies did not want to win as much as they want India to lose. Same seems to be the case with Pukistan.
Lets see what happens.
