pakistan vs srilanka... triumph of human spirit...

shared by straight point on Saturday, June 20, 2009

that refuses to give-up against all odds...

both finalists in a way are victims of terror...

team srilanka faced bullets...for no fault of theirs...

team pakistan faced isolation...again for no fault of theirs...

both teams overcame their demons...specially srilanka after that traumatic experience...

both team fought with more hunger and desperation than other teams...

» bored beyond boundaries!
redemption and defiance... @ BCC!

as sachin once famously said...both team indeed turned stumbling stones into milestones...and now are ready to lock horns for the battle of supremacy in the finals of world t20...

it can't merely be the coincidence...there is message hidden in it...

the message of keep fighting against all odds...the message that though negative elements can disrupt life...temporarily...but the spirit...the hope...just refuses to do die down for long...will eventually show us the way...and lead to our destinies...



while we don't know who will be lifting the cup on 21st of june 2009...what we know for sure is that cricket...the spirit of game...is already a winner...

take a bow...for srilanka and pakistan...

dot balls...

shared by straight point on Tuesday, May 26, 2009

that's what cost brc the coveted trophy...in the finals of ipl 2009...

for once i agree with mallya...when he said...

We were not beaten by six runs, we gave the match away by six runs

brc played as many as 62 dot balls during their innings...that's more than half the quota of allotted 20 overs per innings...

dot balls meant that pressure to score boundary was even more than normal coz of lack of strike rotation and the new batsman didn't had cushion of deliveries to settle in...specially in a big match like final of a tournament...

hence that apparent panic in BRC batsmen...

considering they lost it by only 6 runs...playing out more than 10 overs of their innings as dot balls ultimately proved suicidal...
