First things first. I am and will always remain an ardent fan of the Little Master —-Sachin Tendulkar, but the way things have gone on in his pursuit for his 100th International hundred, I have become angry and feel let down. For almost 8 months now, the Indian cricket team, the tireless media and the [...]
As I wait (yes, I still do) with bated breath to catch a glimpse of the Adelaide Test between India and Australia, a certain fear grips me. It probably will be the last time we would see the Big Three — Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman — in action in a Test match [...]
Wham, wham, wham, wham…….no am not describing any Phantom or a Batman movie, but Australia’s opening Bat Man David Warner. On a day when India’s old bats struggled, bided time, left deliveries outside the corridor of uncertainty, and shamelessly perished, Warner gave a lesson on authoritative batsmanship. His innings of 104 came in just 80 [...]
Most of the Indian fans will be finding themselves in a familiar territory. Yet another overseas series involving the Indian cricket team, and yet again, the men who took the field have failed to deliver. As the India-Australia Test series reaches the WACA (Western Australia Cricket Association) in Perth, the threat of the scoreline going [...]
Given the way India is performing against Australia in the four-match Test series, I will not be surprised if the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) actually reschedules the Perth and Adelaide Test back in Chennai and in Bengaluru. Jokes apart, I have never understood the logic behind harping about individual brilliance regardless [...]
The India-Australia Test series is turning out to be grossly one-sided and I shudder to think that if a side boasting of the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman and Virender Sehwag can’t deliver the goods, who else will? To be honest, it’s just about 10 days since the series and I feel [...]
How do you win with losers? Better still, how do you lose with winners? Well, this exactly sums up the fortunes of Australia and India in their ongoing Test series. While Australia pulled off a win in Melbourne with the help of rookies in the form of Ed Cowan, James Pattinson, Nathan Lyon their opponents [...]
Grumble, crumble, rumble and stumble—read one of the placards at the massive Melbourne Cricket Ground that aptly signified India’s abject surrender in the first Test against Australia on Thursday. Not for nothing are we termed as poor travellers and for the fourth time in succession, India lost their first Test in an overseas series. Worryingly [...]
If there is one Indian who is under more pressure than our honourable Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, then it undoubtedly has to be a certain Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. With chants of “Saccchiiinnnnn….Sachhhhiiiinnnn……Sachhhhiiiiiinnnnnn” bringing the ground to a standstill everytime he takes guard be it during practice or in a match, the ever calm and composed [...]
The head sat perfectly inside the blue helmet as the Little Master walked serenely to the centre to take guard in pursuit of what was to be his 100th international hundred. For Sachin, it was not just those 30 odd runs that had to knocked off, but the fact that this century had to be [...]
