Flat pitches.....
Read the score line.....450 -1. Every batsman irrespective of his class can hit a bowler without caring whether he s Warne, Mcgrath, murli, Mtini, Lee etc. This has made the game less exciting however no. of sixes and fours have increased and so has the total scores which I think helps in generating more revenue.But, in the end d game will suffer m... more...

Buying Books
Today I will tell you my experiences with books. Being a voracious reader from childhood, I read whatever I get my hands on.

Thus my reading habit continued. But, ironically, I never...  more...

Lucky they are who know what to do in their life. People say luck don’t smile on everyone and sure they are, as so few people know early in life, what to do with it.
