India vs England 4th ODI

So India won the 4th ODI and along with it the series. Congrats guys!!! After the match was reduced to just 22 overs per team, it was going to be display of power hiting along with an array of variations from bowlers. And it happened like that only. What hurt me though was the Man of Match award. The game was so much Batsman driven that it was almost impossible to produce an economical spell. In such adverse conditions Zaheer produce an awesome bowling performance. He gave away just 20 runs in his 5 overs, in a match where the runs were scored for more than 8 runs per over. And that’s not it. He also took 2 wickets and a catch. But the Man of the Match award went Viru. Just shows how much the game has turned into batsmen’s game!!!

P. S.: Did you notice how Oasis Shah intimidates Indians while he is batting- running for a double even when the ball is going straight to fielder, making funny noises while running between the wicket!!!

Sawai Ekankika’ 2013

So this year I completed a hat trick of watching the finals of Sawai . Like the previous 2 occasions, this too was a great experience. Most of the plays were good and the overall performance level was better than that of the 2012 finals. Most of the plays were based social issues like parenting, cynicism among the middle class, etc. Unlike the previous finals, not a single one was of romantic/love genre. Here is the list of finalists- Nat S. M. R. T. We missed this one as we were late. But Viraj's father told us, this was similar to the play " Natasamrat " but a modern version. Emotional Atyachar This was a story of an employee in an e-CRM firm which is hired by clients so that someone can communicate with their family.
