Different Shades of BLUE....


I know the thought of the present Indian cricket team winning the world cup cricket tournament sounds incredible and judging by the recent performances of our Indian cricket team we are slowly striving back to our old reputation “snatching defeat from the hands of victory”. I know it’s a game where we win some and lose some, but the will to go that extra mile for that elusive win and absence of killer instincts (which has eluded our team time and again) has disappointed the Indian fan more then the loses. And taking in to consideration the power struggles that rests within the hierarchy and the internal politics (within the different zones) regarding the team selections, the silverware looks a distinct possibility.

The Indian cricket team needs to desperately sort out their strategies for the World cup cricket tournament - the Indian team is actually good with batsmen like Tendulkar, Dhoni, Ganguly and Dravid, all rounders such as Yuvraj and Pathan and some raw pace bowling in the likes of Sreesanth and Patel and a decent spinner in Anil Kumble.

All successful one day international cricket teams for the cricket World cup ensure that their best batsmen get to play the maximum number of overs- and hence in my opinion we should open with Tendulkar and Ganguly. We are lucky to have many potential match winners in our team. Yuvraj and Sehwag (on his day, he is a delight to watch) are two potential match winners, and both of them not only score a lot of runs but score them at an incredible speed

The ability to play spin bowling is extremely important during the World cup cricket tournament in the West Indies,since the pitches are expected to be slow and aid spin and we all know that we play spin bowling like no other team. So the pre match statictics is realy favouring the indian team to lift the world cup for the second time, but after all said and done, they have to go out their and perfrom to their potential.

I (for a change) will be routing for the Indian team this world cup and the last time right before the world cup, India toured the South African side and performed much to the disappointment to the Indian fans but came back with a bang during the World cup. Will history repeat itself and this time will we go one extra step and win the World cup, only time will tell. Lets hope the men in blue regain their forms and more importantly the killer instinct before the world cup. But till then "Hoohaa India Aaya India" .

The team for the world cup:
Dravid, Tendulkar, Ganguly, Utthapa, Sehwag, Yuvraj, Dhoni, Pathan, Harbhajan, Agarkar, Zaheer, Kumble, Sreesanth, Patel and Karthick.

TO ADAPT IS THE NEW NORMAL

Presently, the majority of us would be unaware of today's date and day. Such are the times. Each day is getting dragged monotonously, not only for those people who are not working from home but also for people who are doing meaningless (mostly) and stressful work from their homes. Right now, we are experiencing the most uncertain times in the history of mankind and merely ‘binge watching’ on Netflix won’t ease the pain of being confined to our homes 24*7. We are still looking at another month or 2 of lockdown ahead of us. So, how do we cope? I have come-up with a couple of ideas from my own experience of being isolated since last 2 months - 1. Stop ‘over-thinking’ & worrying. This will take us nowhere; rather it will make matters worse. How do we distract our minds then? I would suggest setting yourself in some sort of a routine in the weekdays (From Monday – Friday) – like getting up every morning at the same time and doing similar activities through out the day an...
