Cricket ---> 20 years of Sachin Tendulkar - The Le

Yes, can you belive it,, hes been here for 20 years now. Sachin Tendulkar begins a third decade in world cricket next week.

The Little Master truly was little when he made his test playing debut at the tender age of 16 in November of 1989. And he couldn't have had a tougher induction: in Karachi, Pakistan, he faced the fearsome bowling attack of Imran Khan, Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis (also making his debut). While his 15 runs can hardly be considered memorable, the way in which he withstood the numerous blows to his body was an instant indication that the boy was quickly becoming a man. Sure enough, Tendulkar scored his maiden test fifty a few days later.

He has since then risen to become the world's most successful batsman in both test and one-day cricket, a result of both his unparalled genius with the bat and amazing longevity in the game.

The world was a different place when Tendulkar began. No one sent e-mails or browsed the world wide web, Nelson Mandela was still in jail, the Soviet Union had not broken up and mobile phones had not become a way of life.

When he started, Tendulkar's current captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni was an eight-year-old schoolboy and team-mates Ravindra Jadeja and Virat Kohli were barely a few months old.

Tendulkar has scaled the summit, scoring more test runs (12,773) and centuries (42), and more one-day runs (17 178) and hundreds (45) than any other batsman.

And he is not done yet. One of his cherished dreams is to win the World Cup in front of millions of worshipping home fans when India co-hosts the 2011 showpiece with Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.


thanks for everything sachin, and keep it going !!!

I was Tormented :-( A night to remember !!!

1st Oct 2009
6am
As weired as it sounds its as true as the unconscious life we are livin. I would remember this day as aptly and clearly until the day of my marriage “probably the only event which might come close to this day” it was 1st of oct. My day started great not because of the fact that I woke up early at 5.am but I had an awesome time treating myself with a bike ride to hussian sagar lake. My drive was way similar to the type of conversations I strike with female species “very smooth”.

6pm
I had some how managed to fall my self into the trap of delaying my return back late in the evening, just as the sun decided that it also needs to call it a day and step down from the hot and exhausting day at office. I embarked my drive back and this time the ride wasn't as smooth as it was in the morning thanks to the bugs and small flying living beings which wanted to either have a scent of my after shave or just wanted to plant a kiss all over my face, the hour of my return finally dawned at 8 pm.

8pm
I picked up my dinner and settled in front of my TV wathcing PS : I luv U; I was admiring the sweetness of gerald b and the helplessness of hilary swank in the movie;
I felt a small flying thing in the room which was hovering around in circles,round and round, not knowing where to land it self on or into, I consoled myself to belive that it was a large butterfly or a dragon fly.TO MY MISFORTUNE it was MY TORENTOR for the night - A EUTHERIAN MAMMAL – the BAT`

My heart just stood still. Static like a “touch me not”.In relative terms i was like a first year student who was just spotted and picked up by the seniors to rag and bully me around, but this day the 64 kgs and 5 feet something guy was a junior and frozed to death by a baby BAT which was just abt my palms size; its true guys it was a tiny creature which spread its wings like a phantom and was clueless as to whr it got struck. “IN MY LIVING ROOM” of all the places the world, something reminded me that the first thing I saw in the morning was my face in the mirror..wht luck ? Huh ?

8.30
I moved like a robot, I suddenly realized that the nuts and bolts of my body whr rusted to the hilt and would refuse to move. I managed to move forward with my body struck to the floor and crawled myself to open the door for the ltl one to escape, [ yeah !!! as if it wanted to escape from me - in my dreams ]. I managed to pull one of my bed sheets and covered my self with it, "top to toe". I dint want to be hurt anywhr; no chance etall , not until I have found the gal of my life.
There I was sleeping on the floor covered from all around, just praying that this little thing might move out and make my life easier; unfortunately, this wasnt the case to be. Battle lines were drawn and I was cornered like a rat – denounced to be a helpless soul.

9 pm. . Finnally I decidced, I needed to be strong, to be courageous. I wanted my name to scripted in hisotry. I ROSE like a phoenix, and guess what ?? [ completely protected by the bed sheet, smart haan ] started to make noises which the tribals usually do yelling and shouting . . . that did the trick as my understanding goes of this creature; it does not have eyes to locate anything but the sound and the frequency of the sound / noise which helps it, it panicked and collided with the ceiling fan and fell right beside me, NOW it was like a battle between evens !!! both of us on the floor,It was trying to fly and take off but couldn't due to the accident. I withdrew from my bed sheet like half victorious king who just smelled blood of his enemy [not literary]. I managed to get the little thing out of the room with the help of my sword,, hmmn yaaa my broomstick... and raised my arms with a huge sigh of relief; bowed down to the heavens for my victory over this dangerous and squeaky enemy.

9.30 pm.
What a night !!doh

Apprehensive and hesitant !!

hie all...

Am sure all of us who are onto this site or some other social networking site surely would have noticed that its not at all easy to make new frnds and acquittance's... thou we come across lots of blogs and forums which keep indicating the users to hang onn and keep trying to make frnds and find THE RIGHT ONE"
but will we ever understand why we as human beings are so hesitant and suspicious towards someone new ? have we ever wondered why we don't trust others easily, why we are apprehensive to replying to mails and other communications ?

Am sure we all would have wondered on lot of such questions and am sure all this fear is probably because we at some point in our lives were hurt by
-- ppl who broke our trust, by ppl who played with our emotions, by ppl who hurt us and our feelings....

but i still feel its so unfair that all of us become so hesitant and apprehensive, let us be open to love and friendship; its worth going thru all the pains and emotional damage just to get that one genuine frnd or a perfect soul mate"

Imagine what this world would have been if we were less judgmental and less apprehensive'. Lets try being fearless and let our hands meet the hands of the other, and let our eyes dive into the hearts of other... lets give us a chance !!!
lets try.

The Night I was slushed and was charming too ....

I woke up this morning only to be greeted by a spectacularly sunny day"
there was a note left on the door step which goes like this :-
_____________________________________________________________
hi Mr handsome, in case u don't recollect what happened last night let me tell u that i had to picked u up from a disco where u were slushed after drinking too much....
i had noticed the innocence and the boyish streak in you and volunteered to help U out.... after couple of hours i could finally figure out u r place and managed to drop u off, but never felt like leaving u this at state.
I removed u shoes, u r socks, undressed u to the bare minimum - gave u a good shower and had good one myself too... i luved rubbing my hands on u r toned body and then dried u with a towel... it was midnight and u were mumbling a hindi song and were trying to get cozy with me.... the night was chilled and pleasant and the moon was lingering aloft and the emotions took the better of me and I succumbed to the fire of my desires.... we made love for most of the night and u slept off while caressing my neck !!!
i woke up and left without even bothering to wake U up and tell u good bye......
but ;
couldn't help, but to come back to drop of this letter and let you know that i had one of the most amazing times of my life in this couple of hours... the night which probably means a lifetime to me... this is to tell u that i may be almost u r age if not a ltl further but i loved the way you were trying to babysit me in u r intoxicated state as if i was slushed. You were being more polite then any normal person and were charming...
U just mesmerized me...
i just want to thank you for the time....

urs

----- someones just dropped her saying she was slushed at the pub" and handed her over to me and said "u seem to be The New Guy" GOOD LUCK and GOOD BYE !!!

Request to all indians and others - stop using pla

guys,
plastic bags may be convenient for shoppers and shopkeepers, but pose a threat to the environment.

Plastic bags are a very large part of the toxic portions of our solid waste daily and there is no safe way to dispose of them. If you bury them, they will poison the soil for generations. If you burn them, you pollute the air with toxins. If they end up in the waterways and eventually the oceans they cause death by being swallowed which causes starvation

More than one million sea birds and approximately 100,000 sea mammals die each year after ingesting or becoming entangled in plastic debris. Because plastic bags are so light weight, they are easily airborne and are found everywhere, littering the countryside with many potential dangers and choking up drains.

Pls stop using plastic bags and start using cloth and paper bags.
An humble request...

cya,

lets live...

Why is it that we all start to make a bucket list in the last end of our journey,, why are we missing out on the NOW,, on the “present” ... Why dont we make a list of all the things which we wanted to to do but couldn't ... we all need to go all out,, just all out to live ,,,, and be lived....
don't ever be afraid of being wounded in love... embrace the pain and walk onn if things don't to go your way.... and if they do consider yourself to be fateful....

......breach the norms of the society whr ppl are not hurt but are amazed by your thought,, ,by your idea !!
live life.
