India beats Australia

India has defeated Australia in the best of three finals yesterday. It’s ultimately the finals which matters a lot and Indians are just one match away to clinch CB series trophy. I hope Aussies will be back with full energy tomorrow for the second final but I doubt that they will be able to win the match. I would suggest them to field first if they win the toss and bowl out Indians for a low score. That’s the best they can do now.

Haydens Comment

Today, Australian opener made some comment about Harbajan Singh aka Bajji. I came to know about this when I switched on the TV after Dinner. I think these kind of remarks are totaly unwarranted at this stage when India is all set for big three match finals of the CB Series staring from Sunday.

I did not expect these kind of comments from a player like Hayden. I am wondering what provoked him to say this as he is often so silent like Sachin.

Inducted into Community-Credit Hall of Fame club

Mr. David Silverlight has inducted me into the Community-Credit Hall of Fame club. I’ve given a screenshot of an extract posted by him on the site.

I’ve been adding my contributions since the last one and a half years and I’ve won prizes few times. There was a time when I keep on winning prizes until David imposed handicapping feature. I feel that this feature enables new comers not only to gain points bus also to win prizes.

I am very much grateful to him for inducting me into the Hall of Fame club and my contributions will now find a place under Champions panel.
