RajasthanRoyals on top

It has been a big surprise to see the RajasthanRoyals play the way they have done. Shane Warne has captained the side very well. They are the only team to be sure of a place in the final four.This in spite of having a team with minimum number of international players. The few international players in the team have really performed well. Smith has been giving a solid opening along with Yusuf Pathan. Warne has bowled really well and his smart moves on the field have produced instant results.Shane Watson has also done well with both the bat and the ball. Though not really famous for skills in the international arena he has really used this opportunity so show case his skills to the world.The news of the Jaipur blast must have disturbed the team very much so it would be interesting to see how well this teams come back against the average Bangalore team.

Delhi team very unfortunate

Delhi has been a very good team. Captained by Sehwag it has performed really well. This team has two of the top five run scorers. The top order has really clicked. Gautham has played really well and has carried his good run in the T20 world cup into the IPL. The much hyped AB de from South Africa has not performed well. Dhawan has played really well. The first three batsmen have won them games esp Gautham. But they are not fortunate enough. They have lost matches which they should have won with ease. The last ball defeat to ChennaiSuperKings, the lost to Knight riders etc. But the good thing about this team is that it has a pretty cool captain. Glen McGrath has bowled well and is being supported by other bowlers well. Asif has been expensive at times but is capable of providing vital break through. This team is not far away from a semi final berth. Hope it reaches the semis.

ChennaiSuperKings struggle after Hayden,Hussey return to Australian colours

The ChennaiSuperKings were considered the best team in the IPL after they won their first four matches. But this was mainly due to Hayden’s hard hitting and Hussey’s(often called Mr. cricket) magic with the bat. As soon they left to Australia the ChennaiSuperKings could not find replacements. The former NZ captain Stephen Fleming could not fit into Hayden’s big shoes. He was trying to hit the ball hard which is unlike him. He is a good player when he times the ball. Hence ChennaiSuperKings have not been getting good starts. Badrinath has done his best to fill Hussey’s spot but still Hussey is too big player to miss. The ChennaiSuperKings have a good bowler in Goni. Goni is more than handy with the bat. He won them a game against Delhi with his 10 runs of the last over. Suresh Raina and Dhoni have played really well. Murali could pick more wicket than he has done now.

Mumbai people expected sachins magic but it was sanath's fireworks

Sachins first IPL match was some thing to remember not for his batting but Jayasuriya’s batting. Jayasuriya hit a scintillating 45-ball 100 to take Mumbai to the target with ease. Sanath was really in a bad mood punishing every ball from the Chennaisuperkings bowlers. At a point of time even a dot ball was as hard as a maiden over such was his dominance. He was not even hitting 4s every hit of his was landing behind the ropes and most of the time in the stands. This happened after ChennaiSuperKings struggle to set paltry target. What this win does is it gives the Mumbai Indians a great chance as the their low net run rate got a great boost because of this innings from Sanath.

Shoaib Akhtar changes dadas fortune

The bad boy of pakistan cricket has give his new team a real chance to finish in the top four in the IPL league matches. He bowled his heart out to take four wickets. His first wicket was sehwag who would have taken the match even if he had been in the center for 2 overs. The score 134 was not a big total to chase but in came Akhtar. He got sehwag in his first over then gautham too. He also got AB de who tried to pull his short ball. He got 4 wickets in his 3 overs. This would be a great thing that happened for srk after all he was supporting him for a long time. Hope Akhtar performs well and keeps this team in the race for the semi finals berth.

Jab we meet

Director and writter : Imtiaz Ali
Producer : Dhillin Mehta under Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Ltd
Stars : Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Dara Singh and Saumya Tandon

This is a nice movie to watch as it is totally crazy. If you are a person who wants a film to be perfect with logic then this film may not even make you think about it again. But many of us watch a film to enjoy it in that case this would qualify as a good film. The film starts with the hero facing tough times in his life. He is really depressed after his girl friend’s marriage. He did not have a good time with his company too. Then he happens to see Kareena who keeps talking about running with her boy friend and every thing not related to Shahid. First he hates her and as the movie moves on he finds her to be very interesting. He even goes to her house then starts the tamasha. It is better for u to watch the movie than to read what happens after this.

Well after a long wait the songs are out. The film has had a lot of negative publicity starting from the plagiarism to the latest case filed against it by the vaishnava group. It is said that first the god of music(AR R) was approached but due to date problems he turned it down. Then the Kamal picked Himesh Reshammiya for this job. After the release people seem to be quite satisfied. The background music has been composed by Devi Sri Prasad. The trailer is quite good and it has made some good impression about this film. Will this film live upto its expectation? We will have to wait and watch.

When one looks at the names of the players in the Kings XI team we would expect the team to depend heavily on players like sangakara, SL captain Mahela Jayawardene and obviously sixer yuvi. But cricket is a funny game no one knows what may happen in a game. When we expect good knocks from the above three they have hardly had any chance to do so. It’s because of the great start that they get from Shaun marsh. He is in the top five leading run scorers in the IPL even though he has played only 5 matches compared to the 9 matches that the other batsmen have had. Hope he continues his good form.

Are relationships mutual???

We meet many people in our life.We speak with them and create an opinion(good/bad) about him/her.We tend to be closer to people on whom we have a so called good opinion and try to stay away from the rest.Is this a good practice???I have two incidents which made me think about this.

Well it was 2004.I had my board exams and when i was done with them i had to shift to a new house which was about one or two kilometers away from my old house.I was in an apartment which housed about 400 families.I had many friends there.When i came to this new house of mine i was left all alone(in the sense with out friends).There were only four houses out of eight which were occupied.Then one fine morning i saw people carrying packages into the house next door.I saw an one year old boy in that house.Still i had no one to speak with.As days went the small boy started walking speaking and playing.He used to bring his toys to my house and play with me.I found it very funny to play with this little guy.But after some time he went downstairs to pursue his new game(tri-cycle riding).Well the boring period started again.Then came the interesting period the sem exams.I was always a guy who did last minute studies.I had lots of things to read.I went out to get a xerox of a book i did not have.I returned.When i parked my vehicle and entered my flat entrance i saw this small boy running towards me.He caught my legs.I could not understand anything.He said some thing in his mother tongue.I did not have any idea of what he was talking about.When i asked his mom.She said he was asking me WHY I WAS NOT PLAYING WITH HIM FOR DAYS.I was dumbstruck.I did not know what to say but it made me feel better.Finally i got my first friend in my new flat :)).When i saw him for the first time i never thought he would be my friend.Rather i saw him as a cute little boy who belongs to the new generation.I was proved wrong only to get another friend.

The other incident was a bitter one.I had a good friend with whom i shared every thing.I used to spend some time with him.I used to tell what ever i felt.No matter what the topic was.But for some strange reason the relationship did not stay the way it was.I used to ask him if "WE ARE TOGETHER".He would simply smile and say yes.But people around me would say he is not our friend anymore.But i still have the same regard for him.He had helped me pass many tough moments in my life and may be he is going through his own now.So i still wait to see my old friend walking up to me and saying "Hello macha" in his old tone which is really his own.

A fuming ishant with a good attitude does it for india

Oz have done it again.The spat between symonds and ishant resulted in ishant being fined 15% of his match fees.But what was the outcome?? The already fast and accurate ishant was further encouraged to show his skills and how to respond after an icc hearing.The embedded video shows how ishant celebrates after a great ball to get rid of the opening batsmen perera.Isnt this a way to respect the ICC code of conduct??Can the so called greats like Ricky and Symo learn from this lanky young pacer?
