Men in Blue are Back.................With a BANG!!!!!!!!!!!

After the tri series between India, New Zealand and Sri Lanka, Yesterday we saw what Indian Cricket team is capable of. Down in the series 1-0 with 6 matches to go, Men in Blues were asked to bat first by the arch rivals Aussies. Sachin once again failed to score big, but I still believe that there is lot more for Sachin to display during the coming matches. Yuvi too didn't made the mark in his comeback match after he was ruled out of Champions Trophy cause of injuries. Sehwag palyed the superb cameo hitting 40 of 31 deliveries. Gauti (76 runs) was phenomenal. The only player who is showing consistency from past 2 years. Shouldering the responsibility and making the captain and selectors proud. Raina played a superb knock of 62 of 50 deliveries after failing cheaply in the first match. But Dhoni was the man to look out for. Played well during the middle overs and literally destroyed the bowling attack of Aussies during the slog over along with Raina. Dhoni scored his 5th century when he hit Shane Watson for a straight Six. Went on to score 124 runs in just 107 balls before getting out in the last over. Aussies had a bad run of luck when their perfomer Brett Lee and James Hopes were declared injured after the first match and Mitchell Johnson clearing the fitness test just before the match. but that should not take the credit away from the Indians who played really fantastic after their dismal performance in first match. After the final delivery by Aussie's the score was 354/7.


To much too chase for the kangarooes and that too without their star batsman Micheal Clarke and Brad Haddin who are out of this tournament. The start was bad and they lost their 1st wicket when score read 20. Ricky who played a superb knock in the first match fall cheaply and so is Shane Watson. White and Hussey tried to stable the inning but after White went for 23, Aussies were done. Hussey made a blisterring 53 of 60 deliveries when others struggled to reamin at crease. Credit goes to our bowlers for doing well. Ishant impressed with quicks and line. Jadeja bowled well in the middle overs and was awarded with 3 wickets. Praveen also bowled tight line and length. Only concern about Indian bowling without the spearhead Zaheer is the form of Bajji who has to prove his mettle again.


All said and done, the series is still quite open. With 5 more matches to go and opponents being the no. 1 ODI team, it's very difficult to say what the result ll be. I ll be happy to see Men in Blue holding the trophy. Winning the series is very impotant keeping in mind the decreasing popularity of ODI's and the performance of Indian team in the just concluded Champions Trophy. Losing the series ll adversely affect the viewership and all the pundits of cricket ll come down blazing their guns on the Men in Blue.


All the best to Indian team. Keep up the good performance.

Electronics City

Finally i got transfered to the city everyone knows as Silicon Valley of India, a.k.a Banglore..............Sorry it's Bengaluru now (Don't want to be in any kind of Controversy). Whatever I say about this city will be less, though didn't got chance to roam around the city and explore the places. The best thing about Bengaluru is it's climate. Very unpredictable and just awesome. Now I don't have to wash my shirts and shocks daily as was the case in Chennai. Don't have to take bath daily too. :). Enough of the laugh now.

I have heard that Bengaluru is the most expensive city of India, but honestly I think that one more comparision between Bengaluru,Chennai, Mumbai and Pune will rule out my doubts. I am living near to Electronics City and its away from the main city. The house rents are cheap in this part and so is the food. The place is getting bigger and bigger everyday with lots of multi-national companies coming up.

Office location and campus is mind-blowing. Almost everyone speaks in Hindi (our mother tongue). People don't care about what you are wearing. Though we have dress code in Wipro Technologies, no one gives a damn here. Food court is big and have a lot of options to opt for. Various dishes and cuisines at cheap rates. Lots of beauties for the exercise of your eyes. Hell, I love this place.


Still have to know a lot about this place. I am dying to roam around and the nearby places. Keep looking for more on my experiences.



Word of Caution: All that glitters is not Gold. The taxi and buses fares are too much.

After a long Vacation

Finally I took leave from my office for a whole week after 4 grueling months of my job. Though I have not done anything substantial in that period but still I felt that I needed this break. So I packed my bag and went to Pune to meet my elder brother and have fun. My youngest brother was already chilling his foot in there when I reached to Pune.

The very next day we started for Mahabaleshwar, riding in bikes as it is only 120 kms from Pune. Hardly we had passed the tunnel around 15 km from my brother's room, my youngest brother lost his vision. Dropped his spectacles in the middle of highway and forced us to cancel the trip. Returned back to room and slept as I was to tired from my journey.

Went to Hard Rocks in the evening. It was hell of a place to hangout guys. Rock music, drinks, chicks and lots of people who doesnot even know where they are. It was a totally different life in there.


Next day one of my dearest friend came to Pune as he was transfered. That day simply fly off talking about how our life has changed since we started working. 2 days later we went to Mumbai to meet our close friends and believe me guys nothing is much better than sitting with your friends and chatting the day off over a hookah. Meeting friends who you care about after a long time is really a special moment. A moment of mixed emotions. You feel joy and try to hold the tears at the same time. Lots to say but not finding the words. Those moments are such which can't be put in words. Sorry but this is getting too emotional.

Well we came back to Pune after 2 days and next day I started my journey back to Chennai. Due to floods at various parts of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, the route of my train was diverted. Because of that I reached chennai 5 hrs late and went straight to my office (that was yesterday).

Still I am lost in streets of Pune and Mumbai. I am back to my desk but the memory is still fresh.
Again same life routine. Coming to office at 8.30 A.M and leaving by 7 in evening. Going to room, having dinner and a sleep of 6 hrs. Life has became so monotonous but still I am happy cause I know............................

Life is What you think it is...............Find joy in every moment and Embrace what life gives you..........You will have your moments.....................
