Long Holiday Ahead & some cricket

Well not that long...just 3 days for me.

While we have Diwali and Ramzan at almost the same time, the guys in US have Halloween. Have a nice time folks, whoever is reading in whichever part of the world.

Talking of what I intend to do...one thing is for sure, I will not miss the next cricket match. I have not been able to catch any crcket live so far. Have been reading and imagining Tendulkar coming out of the crease and lifting the bowlers over the covers and mid on. Well when you have 29'' Onida, it's not that hard to imagine! (borrowed from the Samsung ad)

I just hope Tendulkar's and India's form last till the end of next world cup. Otherwise it will be really sad for Tendulkar to go down as the greatest cricket player ever, not to have won a world cup. There are contenders for this too, like Lara. He is a good bat too. And in certain areas (like winning against the Australians from a hopeless situation) he is actually better than Tendulkar. But kya karein, Tendulkar is our own man.

Ganguly looks all set to bow out of International cricket. but cant write him off till the BCCI elections are over. If Dalmiya wins, I wont be surprised to see Ganguly back in the team. But captaincy is a no no for sure.

Have a great holiday ahead
