In a nation where no one knows that cricket is actually an insect...


India is a land of religions, of unity, of diversity, and, more importantly, of cricket. The world cups on, and the temperatures are running high; in case you think i'm mentioning the weather, you are definitely not from India!!!!

I was never really into cricket, and i suck at playing it as much! But world cup's almost driven home now, and i can't help but give in to the cricket talks, the blue clothes, the 'bleed blue' slogans; in stations, trains, Xavier's and at home! (My brother and my cousin are cricket maniacs)
And when the master blaster is about to make gis 100th International ton, Sehwag is hitting boundaries over and over again, and Yuvi and Bhajji are taking wickets like hound dogs do raw meat, how can you ever stay locked up in your room and STUDY, and miss the fun of the light blues kicking the asses of every other colour? Yes, my exams are 3 days to go!

The India v/s Pakistan match on Wednesday was the first ODI match i'd sat through from the coin toss to the last ball, 100 overs! And surprisingly I enjoyed it a hell lot. Though the 20-25 overs in between get boring, the last 10 overs are worth watching every bit. And yes, i just discovered it!

This is a nation where cricket is what people live, eat, drink, breathe and bleed. And this sport is what brings the whole country together. so I'm going to sit tight, today, for the India v/s Sri Lanka finals and root for India, no matter what the match ends up to be!
enjoy!
