Gunners Crashed out of Europe!
Anyway, it had to be the gooners on the losing side. We are already told that, some may say, but I will say the better team just didn’t win. It didn’t. Not because they couldn’t but because of sheer injustice on the field. Simply they were outclassed by the officials letting Liverpool play with one another extra man. We could have tolerated that if he is a player but he is the decision making referee and even God cannot cope with that.

Delightful Umpiring
Question remains: What happens to their 'record' after Steve Buckner's retirement?
I don't get it. Whats wrong in calling a monkey a monkey?
It might be wrong in the sense that he was called just a monkey.. should have been called long haired monkey.
I say call off the tour and come back. Eight decisions which simply costs us a test match and some indisputable player of cricket says its great to win a test and shows the team's determination. Yes it shows how much 'good work' your 'fourteen' players had done. Hats off! Now BCCI please please do something if at all you can do something other than thinking, drinking and eating money.

!!
Australia: 376/7 by the end of first day.
Come on everyone. Bash every one in the team and start the talk of we being complacent yet again and we 'Indians' always lack the killer instinct.
Have a look at the decisions! Even the third umpire got the stumping, clear stumping mind you, wrong! Amazing stuff from the ICC panel of umpires. I don't know what world they are from but sure Australians would be jumping with joy as of now.
A clear edged catch not once but thrice. A clear LBW.. ok let us leave this as LBW's are something umpires have the 'right' to get wrong 'occasionally' - They are after all humans.
Clear Stumping. This was given not out by the third umpire!
I would have been devastated if i was the bowler and fuming if I was the captain.
For all those who say these are all part and parcel of the game! Stop it you morons. It is not just one decision(which umpires seem to claim having as a birth right) but many which by every means took away the credit from our bowlers. How and how could even the third umpire get it wrong is beyond my understanding!
People who say rick ponting was wrongly given out for a thick inside edge of bajji's bowling on 55. If he was in there it would be even worse for india.
Loosers. He was clearly caught by dhoni of dada's bowling on 17! 50/3 before lunch and that would have definitely been worse for Australia then.
Shitty Arguments and yet I hope our team would fight to comeback as the Aussies are wrongly poised in an absolutely good position in this second test.
Dravid get your batting straight please please..

Them , Us, Me. wtf!
Firstly, I kept aside my traveling plans to Kerala for the weekend just because I would be getting something new for the first time and have to be here in
Don’t give me that Bull! I couldn’t convey the same to ‘them’ and I blame my lack of knowledge in Kannada and theirs in English as the option of Hind is chalked out as both knew the same Hindi and I am not so fluent with the rough words. Now I am left out to mouth certain abuses at imaginary them, in my mind.
Secondly, I stay in my friend’s room instead of going around
Thirdly, I get to my cubicle to get some papers and return back to my room and instead of doing what I wanted to do end up logging in and the computer ask to change the password for security reasons as if I was given access to something highly confidential, if there is any! All I get to have is nothing in the hard disk which can be stolen in computer science sense. Why do I need to change my password every few days is beyond my imagination!
Anyway, I end up spending twenty minutes to find a new password. It says: You are not using all the secure measures given in the password tips and there I was banging my head all over to find a password which I can actually remember and isn’t in the list of my previous 12 passwords. Can you believe it? Twelve previous passwords! To do a ‘Asim benerjee’, how did they decide the number to be twelve? Huh!
Fourthly, I get a call from my roommate to buy toothpaste while coming back to the room and he specifies it to be ‘Pepsodent’. Ok. I get to the lift door in the third floor and press the down button. I see first lift resting in the second floor and the second in -2 which is moving up. The first never stops resting and the moving one starts moving so slow that I keep on smashing the button, not that it makes the lift move fast but... it’s simply unexplainable. Those of you who spotted me at that moment... don’t panic. Nothing is wrong with me as of now and I assure you there is no need of moving me to an asylum. The second one actually went up to the fifth floor and then while coming down stopped to pick me up. All this while, the first was still resting. Kudos to whoever designed that system!
Finally, I get to the dhobi to get my clothes back and he shouts at me saying washing and ironing clothes take one week time and tomorrow will be that day. Me to myself: ‘Oops! Wrong time. He is having an off day!’ Yours truly walks down to the loyal world to find no toothpaste.
Last but not the least, I reach the room to find it dark and deserted to find out the loss of power only in our house while the whole locality is beaming with lights shining. After all these, I didn’t find anything better than to spend the whole night fighting mosquitoes and cool breeze. To think in those terms, silly me! Of course I was wrong. The water! You don’t have power; you can’t pump water into the tank.
Hahahaha . Someone up there is having a laugh.
“Who is having an off day?” I retrospect.

The Prince
I thought
He lost his touch and timing.
He is no more a potential candidate to be in the one day team and also the test team for obvious reasons.
He should give up his effort to come back into the team and pave way for the youngsters.
He should retire and start coaching; his commanding abilities are always there even when he was going through the rough patch of his career.
He will never be back into the team after he lost his place in the side.
He is back in to the test team but he definitely has no comeback into the one day team; too much talent pool on hand to keep him out.
Being his ardent fan, I wished I was wrong in the first place but I never ever dreamt it to become true. How wrong I was!!!!
Now I don’t
Have to show people statistics and give links of videos in which he batted against good fast bowling attack and timed the ball so well.
Have to convince people that he is no more a liability but an asset to the team.
Have to argue anymore with anyone.
He is the prince.
Sourav Chandidas Ganguly, I bow thy attitude.

What has infy done!
Coming out of the darkness occupied basement area into the sunlight filled lawns I heard this
Manohar: Abey, I thought this to be a grey color shirt but it has some purple shade too! With an expression which when translated to our language says !@#!#@!#!@.
Rakesh: purple is gayish.
Manohar: That’s what I wanted to convey.
Rakesh: On another note.. even ‘gray’ contains gay in it.
Manohar: !!! What? How?
Rakesh: Remove ‘r’ from gray and its gay.
Manohar and me: !!!!
Manohar: Its color ‘grey’ babu, bangari rakesh babu.
Rakesh: Arey. If you write that in telglish, it should be ‘gray’
Me: enuff.... do you think of any need to undo the damage? This would definitely make its entry into ‘Dobbudu Gang’.
*evil laugh*
