from test maze to test mace...

shared by straight point on Thursday, December 31, 2009

sorry to those who noticed... i was away and traveling so could not update blog... just wanted to be away from everything for a while to wind up the year... but cricket has the magnet to pull you towards itself wherever you go so i spend quite a time with my friends on kotla fiasco while traveling... which i believe has many layers than we can peel off...

but i would like to end year at sp on positive note on one thing which also happened at my back...

indian team captain, dhoni, was presented a test mace...



this is a significant moment for every indian cricket fan... the fan who used to back team india since the days we were ranked almost at the bottom... were not only termed as soft travelers but 'soft' as whole unit... when coming un-scathing even from pakistan used to be seen as monumental task leave alone tours outside subcontinent... to now that any country will think twice before giving us a green pitch as home advantage...

it has been a time travel worth a life...

so i leave you with some sweet some and sour memories of being an indian cricket fan... now seeing our team at the pinnacle of test summit... with the hope that i will be uploading just about the same image at this time... next year...

wish you a very happy new year!
