*yaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnn*
It is not every day that an average cricket would forget to watch the World Cup Semifinals twice in two days....i am proud to have done this and I am sure that I am not alone.
When ICC was deciding the modalities of the event, the minutes of the meeting were recorded with one small mistake...instead of "The world Cup is an event held once in four years", it was recorded as "The world Cup is an event held once for four years".. Haven't been witness to a longer edition, and this might last all the way until WC 2011 .....
With the Asian Honchos opting to get back home because of home sickness, and more to protect their families from educated yet senseless public, who were hell bent on vandalising the properties hard earned through endorsing MNC brands. The actual issue could have also been that they might have found it way too boring and demeaning to play in stadiums which were less populous than the cinema halls screening Dharam Paaji's comeback C grade Movies.
So there was this bright mind that thought it would be possible to infuse life into the tournament by taking one's life... Bob Woolmer the victim... downright silly idea.. for the minimal public interested in going to the stadium made a U turn to the Police Station, as there was more action there...
Super 8's.. Less said the better.. what was super about it? No one wants to comment...The only happy souls were the bookies who backed Banglas against South Africa.... Barring that every match has been extremely predictable and one sided, barring one England WI match...Even the commentary did not help.... Guess Sony recruiters were waiting outside ESPN's office for ex cricketers who got rejected by them, so that Sony could employ them at half price...
So am I looking forward to the Grand Final? Well I wouldn't be waking up until 1:30 at night and post this comeback blog..
Thanks for being patient waiting for my blog to be updated for close to four months.. hope i get better with the freqency of posts going forward.

The World Cup was a disappointment and whats transpired from the stings yesterday is worse even.
World cup was a disaster in all aspects. There will be no watchers of cricket till australia playing like this. we have an option in next world cup. give the world cup to australia at the opening ceremony and send them home. later include UAE in the list and let the other 16 countries fight for second spot.
