I just could not let the opportunity of watching the Australia-England first final pass by and that too at the MCG. So when I got the chance, I grabbed it with both my hands.
The game stretched to the very last over, as everybody knows, and had a nail biting finish which only made my experience at MCG more memorable.
Sachin Tendulkar scored his 41st ton today in the 4th ODI against the West Indians and that too using as many as 76 balls. What a way to silence the critics.
Moreover, for all those idiots asking Tendulkar to hang his shoes up and call it a day on his cricketing career, he is one of the leading run getters in 2006 with an average of 36.something (the highest among the Indian batsmen).
Way to go Master, keep the good work up!!
India defeated West Indies in a low scoring match today and it is all set for the do and die match against Australia this coming friday to book a place for the final. It is going to be one hell of a friday night.
As it turned out, not even a single game could be finished between India and Sri Lanka due to rain, after the Proteas withdrew from the Unitech Cup in August because of security concerns, reducing the tri-series to bi-series.
I hope all goes well this time in DLF Cup tri-series where India takes on Australia and West Indies. Good news is all the matches will be broadcast here in Australia as Australia is one of the teams participating.
Hip-hip hurray !!
India is playing this tri series in Srilanka from the 14th of August, South Africa and the hosts being the other two teams. Sachin Tendulkar is back in the team and is looking in good touch. I am just hoping he shows some of his exquisite shots and be a treat to watch. Well the sad thing for me here in Australia is, I will not be able to watch the broadcast as it will not be aired 
and will have to rely on Internet for the updates.
