Dhada vs Me
By looking at my previous blogs, and my previous talks about our indian
cricket team, you might be guessing that I am a die hard fan of Ganguly.
Yes, your guess is 100% right. Now, you should be thinking that I dont
know anything in cricket!. no, you are wrong.
I have played plenty of cricket during my college days (most of the time,
with tennis balls). I heard that westindies cricket players practice with
tennis balls. This discouraged me from playing with circket balls, instead
play (practice?) with tennis ball. Coming to the point, I remember a period
where I got "duck out", continously, five matches. Should be a record in
our gang.. Now, you might have got the reason why I liked ganguly ;-).
Whenever I got out for no runs, I walked from the pitch telling to myself
that, "Form is temporary, class is permanent". I think it is not required
to explain my "form" and my "class".
I am posting the only FWDed about Ganguly: (In fact, this is the only
mail I have ever received about ganguly, supporting him).
1:Ganguly is the most successful captain for India as his record of 19
test wins[out of that 9 overseas] which no other captain of India has ever
acheived.The funniest part is before Ganguly took over as captain India
had only 13 overseas test wins in the history since it was playing test
cricket
Ganguly -9 overseas test wins
India [before Ganguy as captain]- 13 overseas test wins.What a record
guys?
2:You people say Shewag,Shewag ,who grommed Shewag,it is our beloved
Ganguly who spotted the talent and promoted Mr.Shewag to opening slot.
But when cricket masters said how can shewag open in a test innings
it is our captain who backed Shewag and nurtured his talent.It is
not only Shewag other members like KAIF ,YUVRAJ, PATHAN, BALAJI,
NEHRA, ZAHEER are all grommed by our dadha.
3:Lets not forget when Flintoff threw his T-shirt and went for a
stroll in Wankhade Stadium, we timid Indians were mute spectators for
that Insult.But it is the guts which Ganguly possess which made him to
shout and retort to Mr.Fintoff in the balcony of Lords.I was proud to
be an INDIAN because of dadha. Which Indian captain will have that guts
to retort like Ganguly as he did in LORDS. Can GAVASKAR,TENDULKAR,
Azharuddin ,or even dravid have guts to do that. Never.It is this
guts which makes Ganguly so special.He is a man of GUTS.
4:Ok I can't understand why people make such hilarious statements about
our dhadha.Have we lost the series,no ,pakistan just squared the series.
Thats it. Lets not forget pakistan lost the series to INDIA in their home
soil.If India would have lost the series , my god Ganguly would have been
burnt to death :-) See if Balaji might have stayed for 6 odd overs and
saved the match then I dont think so, such statements would have been
made about our dhadha. We would have praised our team and the focus would
have not been on Ganguly.
5:I accept the fact that he is out of form, tell me which batsmen is not
out of form Even the greats Sachin,Lara,Richards had rough patches.
So give some time for our dhadha, he is prince of Calcutta, definitelty
he will rise to the occasion.
Let us wait for the dispute to settle down, let us hope he will continue
as captain.

Lateral thinking
Can anyone form a story over the following statement?
"I got married, and I cancelled the credit card".
I have already got two. Let me see how mine matches with others..

Good morning
Starting the day with a bad stock market collapse (dont ask me how much I invested in stocks!).
Got a good forward from my friend, thought of sharing with you...
The most selflish word "one" letter word - I - avod it
The most satisfying "TWO" letter word - We -Vuse it
The most poisonous "THREE" letter word - Ego - Kill it
The most used "FOUR" letter word - Love - Value it
(50 kg taj mahal?)
The most pleasing "FIVE" letter word - Smile - :-), keep it
The fastest spreading "SIX" letter word - Rumour - Ignore it.
("u" in rumour is british style?)
The hardest working "SEVEN" letter word - SUCCESS - Achieve it
(it always succs)
The most enviable "EIGHT" letter word - JEALOUSY - D is tance it
The most powerful "nine" letter word - Knowledge - Acquire it.
(it is not "nine" thaara)
The most essential "TEN" letter word - Confidence - Trust it.
A fwd with a message.
