Share Yeah yeah yeah ,everyone would say it is a more than 4-5 decade old topic but recent few series have compelled me to write by looking it in a more holistic way. Now ,if  there is anything in Indian Cricket which is most consistent, then it is our dismal fielding show. Seeing recent matches , it seems that if there exists any ICC rankings for dropped catches , misfields etc then whether it is... 

Share We did have an all year around of sports fun in 2009. I would like to highlight a few memories of good tennis in 2009. History! Roger Federer becoming a family man and the career leader in Grand Slam singles titles. Federer finally won the French Open, the only one that was missing in his resume and regained the year-end ranking he had lost to Nadal in 2008. Emotional! Marat Safin, Amélie Mauresmo...

Share Thank God for Australia. It is one country that keeps interest in Cricket alive and in all forms of cricket. Its not as much there dominance of cricket over last decade thats teh reason. On the contrary that was predictably boring. Its two other uniquely Australian attributes.

Share What a comeback by Shanthakumaran Sreesanth! The last we saw of him was in 2008 during the Test against South Africa at Kanpur, the same ground where he has now impressed everyone with his comeback.

Shanthakumaran-Sreesanth But...
