Mahendra Singh Dhoni was clearly frustrated that Ishant Sharma, his 19-year-old fast bowler, had 15 per cent of his match fee recently docked for a heated exchange on the field with Andrew Symonds. Yet, in an interaction with the media on Tuesday, the Indian skipper [...]

Call it divine intervention or poetic justice, the Aussie juggernaut has been halted yet again by Team India who conjured a magical win at the Aussie citadel of supremacy, Perth. This historic wonder down under is the best revenge for the Sydney Fiasco.
The Aussie tour could not have been scripted better. It’s such milestone moments [...]

The second Test at the SCG has been full of controversies, and many minutes of air time and centimetres of newspaper space have been devoted to them, especially the umpiring errors. Indians played remarkably well and especially captain Kumble stood ground and set an example. The test result is an agony. The Indians did not [...]

“Nothing gets the nation going like Cricket does.” But over the last few series i have noticed one thing that India is perhaps the only team which plays against 13 players in a cricket match. The poor umpiring decisions have hurt India a lot. This is quite disgusting when you love the game so much [...]

It was as Indo pak battle. And we aren’t talking of the just concluded Indo Pak series. Nor are we talking of any incursions that took place at the Line of Control. For a change it was an Indo Pak battle that took place in the corporate sector. Vikram S Pandit, currently Citigroup’s investment banking [...]

Greg Chappell has been in news for the last few days.
So the “good” old dog is barking again.
Chappell surely has a nuisance value. To be honest, it’s quite tempting to blame him for everything that has been going wrong around the world. The idiot is saying that he was racially abused and has accused [...]

In a shocking decision taken by the 5 wise men, Indian ex-captain Rahul Dravid finds himself out of ODI series openers against Pakistan. He has been replaced by the erratic Sultan of Najafgarh. This series also marks a new era in Indian cricket team selection. For the first time since its inception the selection [...]

The way we react to results of cricket matches indicates whether we are just fans or lunatics or extremists. Our reaction has always been temperamental. No wonder Rahul Dravid quit as captain and Dhoni’s family declined to join in the celebrations!!!!!
THE RECEPTION accorded to the Indian Cricket Team after it won the Twenty20 World Cup [...]
