Bhajji Blues..

Poor Bhajji, temper got better of him & the whole drama ensues. After the slap-ban drama, the press is rife with comparisons with the previous episodes of symonds-monkey drama which was highly publicized. But this comparison seems to be ridiculous. I just think that being a more emotional player, he might have got pissed off at sreesanth's comment and let loose his hand.

This gives me a previous thoughts of punjabis, what I observed during my stay in Punjab for 4 years. The teenagers especially are very adamant, bold & even sometimes rude. They say that people cool down as they grow old, I find that case to be true in Punjab. And also people are not afraid to question something if it is wrong. I had an expereince in jalandhar railway station where one of the mineral water sellers was selling a bottle for 13 rupees while the original price was only 10 rs. Once elder sikh janaab who came to grab a bottle was astonished at the price and started arguing. Ultimately the vendor had to concede & give it for 10Rs. Huh!!

EPL & IPL....

Its the weekend & time for sports......ManUtd lost to chelsea at stamford bridge & gets the title race more & more interesting....& indian IPL teams fighting to gain points....harbhajhan hitting sreesanth created more furore than Deccan chargers losing all 3 games...interesting!!

I always thought that creating a game format in the lines of english premeir league would benefit game of cricket...although it gets boring in the end. When it comes to deccan chargers, keeping laxman in the team was just because he is a Hyderabadi, although he is not fit for this form of cricket. The match they lost againast Royals was just his bullshit captaincy. Lets see where they go to....
