Fielding and Catching of Indians in the IPL needs to Improve 0

If there is one key takeaway for the players, especially Indians, in the IPL is that they have to improve their fielding especially the catching by a lot many notches. The catching has been extremely bad and they have been dropped at least a couple of catches each match. This is not the way players [...]

Should IPL have fewer matches and be evenly spaced out? 0

We are almost into the middle of the IPL tournament during its second leg already. We have had close to 3 weeks of continuous cricket. The last season, about this time, my friends and I were on the verge of a burnout with so much cricket being played. Some teams were running away to the [...]

How Fast should one Bowl to be Effective? 0

This is along the lines of the famous Sidhuisms. So I was along wondering whether in my bowling, shoud I go all out for pace, or should I try to bowl such that I get swing or purchase off the pitch. Basically I bowl with different actions for each style that I bowl. A round [...]

Umpires hand Kolkata’s match to Punjab in a frustrating finish 0

It was Kolkata’s match to be won. A decent total and a hold on Punjab’s scoring had all but turned the tide in favour of Kolkata. However all it needed was some useless umpiring and then stupid fielding on the part of Kolkata themselves to give away the match in a silver platter to Punjab. [...]

It's tough to find a good website for some reading about cricket these days 0

Just a while back, I wanted to read about todays IPL fixtures and about the players who would and would not be playing today. I usually refer to the sites espnstar.com and cricinfo.com for my cricketing news. However, espnstar is not covering IPL, as probably they dont have the broadcasting rights and probably that the [...]

Deccan deserved to lose against the Royals 0

Horrendous fielding, thats what did the Deccan Chargers in. After an amazing start in the 2nd innings, where they had the Royals pinned down at 3-3 in the first couple of overs, DC had to loose it for themselves. Its not just about having a good batting and a good bowling line up, but also [...]

Is IPL and 20-20 all about Wham Bam Thank you Ma'am? 1

This IPL has been very frustrating for those who have been looking for some fireworks from the batsmen. Somehow it has come into the batsmen’s minds that if its a 20 over game, then its all about hitting and blindly swinging at the ball. There is no question about looking out for good balls and [...]

Is Reservation bad for India and only a Political Leverage? 0

Some of the major parties in all its poll campaigns and manifestos have only one agenda and that is to bring in reservations for minorities and other sects. I believe that all this talk is only a way to grab the voters bank of the minorities and nothing good will come out of this for [...]
