Bleed Blue


            It’s been a while since I have posted here.My apologies straight away.  A lot has happened in these days . The one that top’s was definitely india’s recent world cup triumph. Finally after 28 years  long and impatient wait , India  lifted their very own world cup again . Well , the main man behind all this was dhoni, with his extremely unorthodox tactics and brilliant field placements , he literally surprised the teams and no wonder sachin has phrased him as the best captian he has ever played under. Let’s not forget the heroics of Yuvraj, who was consistent throughout the  tournament and bagged 4 well earned man of the matches along with the man of the Tournament. Zaheer,with out dubiety the pick of the bowlers with 21 wickets , he simply raised to the occasion when ever his captian looked for a miracle. Last but not the least God Sachin himself with two centuries and second in the list of most runs getters, he once again proved why he is called God of cricket.If there is any man who plays with out seeking  much attention,it’s Gautham Gambhir.He is one who scores big especially in finals.Remember the 75 against Pakistan in 2007 worldcup final ,eventually we went on to win  the inaugural T20 world cup.

            India has consistently won all the matches under pressure and from the position where it seemed they may lose.It was always due to overall team performance and someone or the other chipping in at the right time  to make India win .With the semifinal clash the last remaining gaps in terms of weak,inconsistent bowling,performing badly in the batting powerplay and average fielding are all filled . No sooner MSD hit the six off Nuwan Kulasekara , the entire country erupted in Euphoria.Honking horns, fans spilled in to the streets on the motar cycles. I heard the crackers for each and every boundary that was scored.

            Personally my  favourite matches in this world cup were matches  with England and Australia. Especially Australia, they almost scared the hell the out of me. I was on my nerves for the entire match.Thanks to suresh raina who scored a brilliant 34 to save the match.

            I  enjoyed this world cup thoroughly,not only the matches but the Advertisements too. One ad that really amused me was Dhoni’s Helicophter shot , I was so inspired by that add ,that I tried  helicopter during our recent college match.Much to my abashment, the ball went nowhere ,except that it made terrible mess with the stumps lolz!. Apart from Dhoni’s helicophter,Bhajji’s Doosra, Kp’s palti, Sehwag upar cut(no comments on his dance :p) ,Dilshan’s scoop(the girl is gorgeous)  and Malinga’s slinga were also cool. 

           So finally leavning this famous picture before you , Actually this has been popular picture in this world cup(after ind-aus match) Lolz......

10 things that came to my mind while writing this blog post



1. I love winter season. who don't  love to get crawled up
inside the blanket . but when you have exams. You can't do that . can you?. My situation is very similar to the boy in the picture. too much to study but  too little time.Ofcourse every  engineering student suffers with the same problem.
                    Anyway I am half way through, 3 exams were finished . more three to go.To be honest, my exams were satisfactory,mind you not "good" just satisfactory.


2.In  the amidst of exams, i still managed to watch some movies. Thanks to the electives, we got 5 days holidays including a bandh for "EMI" exam, . I watched "The machinist" ,"inception"(for the first time) and "The social network" . All the three were good .But  "The machinist" is one hell of a movie.Christian bale at his best


3.I m a novel addict,more than anyone else if u ask me, Last month I had read 6 novels, and next on my list "Good Omen" and "How Opal Mehta Got  Kissed Got Wild and Got a Life"(pretty long title .. eh? :P)


4.Ooaa! My sweet sister "Karthika" is going to get married to "Ashwin" on 28th of this month.I am ahhhhhh! what a sweet lookin couple . My best wishes for them :)


5. ohh ya! my best friend "Pavan Bhasker" celebrated  his birthday yesterday. I could have dedicated a blog post for him. But damn! exams. Anyway wish u a many many happy returns of the day pavan .


6. Ah! atlast finally India won the third and final  test match of the series. They crushed newzealand comprehensively. This series will be remembered for few things . First Newzealanders they showed great temperment and attitude.Every one thought that this series would be 3-0 series . Surprisingly newzeland fought hard and managed two draws and almost went on to win the first test.Thanks to Bhajji whose outstandng performance made India to save the test match.Hope he continue  performing  well with the bat and India's thirst of Allrounder would be quenched with him .And last the "WALL" still stands. We will see more cricket from Rahul Dravid in near future.


7. Kudos to Somdev who won 2 goldmedals in Asian games.but shooters let us down , I really want to see india in top 5, Hope we will get more medals in the coming days :)


8. "sidney nagaram" from Orange is the best song i have heard lately.Karunya has amazing voice. I was humming this song like 100 times a day .


9.Ahh comtemplation...,  more 1 to go .....


10. hurrahh!  I did it. mission accomplished :D




That's all from me guys . see you in the next post :)
