Pak - pack up



The First post in this blog would have come at a right time when am more interested to write some thing on my day to day happenings. This day would be sculptured in the books of history because this day is when India bet Pakistan in the semifinal to enter in to the finals of the ICC world Cup 2011.

I donno why ppl are so crazy about a game that is being played every now and then... then i realized that its India vs Pakistan. The game started in the morning and all the fun started every where... the Cafeteria filled with employees that include incident managers and managers in the crowd.i as usual checked the scores in cricinfo... i didn't feel the cricket fever till the EOD... was checking the scores now and then and few comments in twitter... the best in the lot was this... "Nehra nu per vechurukavan ellam Orama ball podran Oram nu per vechurukavan nera ball podran..." burst out laughing in the midst of yuvraj's wicket.

The Office Got over and at that time i came to a decision that team india's dream of grabbing the world cup is also over... by the time i reached my room 2 wickets are down and we started our cooking in our room. The real exitement has staretd when the wickets started tumbling i went tot he near by stores to buy few veggies for our dinner that night... the commentry that i was hearing in my room id not fade away... Every house is viewing the semifinals with loud commentry all over and by afridi's wicket the whole area was confident and shouting... crackers loud and clear after every wicket, and then i understood that cricket is in the veins of indians...

By the time afridi was clear that he is going to lose, we can see a small smile from Dhoni out indian Cap... the last over has come and every thing is over by the catch. The Ulsoor area is vibrating by the shouts of the Ppl around.. my mobile is ringing and i hear nothing but just shouting noise in the call... the ppl have gone crazy... crackers all around... right from small kid to an old aunty jumping in pleasure... wat a proud moment that india is celebrating on a games win...Pakistan was ultimately raped.... the local crowd in and around Ulsoor going on bikes shouting and congratulating the fellow localites on indias win... cricket is a religion here rather than a just game...:-)
