By this time, I guess it is pretty clear from my diary
entries that I am a "Late to bed, late to rise" person, but I don't
mind waking up early if I have a Cricket Match to catch up..;). Jokes apart,
saw the English Premier league decider, and interestingly the season is all set
for a nail biting finish, with both the Manchester Clubs vying for the No. 1
spot! Coming back to cricket, I guess it's time Dada needs to sit down
and think what's best for him. I hope he doesn't end up kicked in the midst of
the series from the Pune franchise. He is simply not working for them, and
being on the wrong side of the thirties, he certainly is not fit for the format
(I know there are exceptions, but he certainly is not one!).
On the other end,
the BCCI needs to ban Sehwag from playing the rest of the IPL. He is simply
killing all the competition and fun! Initially it was believed that he is not a
player who follows the textbook, but what the hell!!You are not supposed to hit
5 consecutive fifties in and that too at a strike rate of over 160!! He has to
think about the other teams as well, who are fighting hard to be on the
remaining upper half of the table.
The new entrants in the form of Australians,
Michael Clarke and Shane Watson, who both returned from the Australia-West
Indies series, could not do anything spectacular with both ending on the losing
side. Never mind, hope to see a more competitive encounter tomorrow!
