ASIA CUP March 2012 - Discussion Thread

Added squad. ;)

He means the cricketer Vinay, not me PP 

lolI know Leo. I do watch Cricket

You do, PP? I tht you spent most of the time spamming the forum 

Hahahaha. I do that too. I multi-task

MultiTasking has become a feature of all computers since many years! 

Yes. and of Indibloggers too now! 

My team for tmrws match v/s SRI LANKA.

Tendulkar, Gambhir, Kohli, Raina, Tiwary, Dhoni, Yusuf, Irfan, Ashwin, Praveen, Dinda.

Its Sri Lanka dude. We need a proper bowling attack na?

Ok. Who 5 bowlers then? Irfan opens bowling with Dinda and bowls 10 overs each. Only Ashwin left as full bowler if you bring Rohit instead of Praveen. So 20 overs btwn Kohli, Rohit, Yusuf and Raina? Is that a good option against Lankans?

Yeah, I'm okay with that. 

So early?  OK. Dream of a defeat. (for Lanka that is.)

Today's Favorite for me is Sri Lanka ...........

Hence I am rooting for the underdogs 

Hope Sachin can get his 100th century against Bangladesh

Or against Pakistan...

@ Vinay, Too optimistic ........ But it would be really great if he can pull it in that match ......

Yes, it'd be good 

Happy 1 Year and 1 Day Anniversary! 

to Sachin's 99th ton  

scored on 12th March 2011.

I seem to recall India losing the match 

After a year Sachin hits another ton. And India again lost the match. I am just wondering what thoughts would be going thru his mind.

India are setting the score, Sri Lanka win toss and wish to chase.

India: Tendulkar, Gambhir, Kohli, Rohit S, Raina, Dhoni, Jadeja, Irfan, Ashwin, Praveen, Vinay.

Tendulkar fell early, but Gambhir & Kohli sticking together in a good partnership.

India 155/1 in 32 overs.

err.. you mean tooooo early.. :P

No no. it was expected timing 

Strong partnership, both nearing hundreds... Ind 209/1 in 40 ov.  GG 95 VK 97.

Both get to 100 in same no. of deliveries. 

And they both get out in the same over now! 226/3, 7 ov to go. 

Good hitting down the order.. 2 ov left, 280 on the board.. can they breach 300?

Yes they can, and they have. Target for SRL will be 305 in 50 overs!

Wow , me tooo . There is some kind of connection between 2 DS's .....

Good RR reqd is less than 6 again . Hope it remains below that only ... and Sanga has also joined the party .....

I have stopped supporting Indian team since Dravid Retirement ........... Support to Aussie was more to get SL prepared Asia cup . I know they are going to take this cup .

Come on SL target is gettable ,with dew also  favoring .......

2 centuries today!! yippee!! was watching both the match and a Siddharth's movie simultaneously... what a treat!! :P :)

Yes yes.. in fact, write a poem now ittself!  come on DS, be a sport and go write a poem on ur cricket wise!

I am not. Kirti, tell him I'm right, and to go write a poem now!

Leo, as the haiku master orders you to write, and i as his pupil second him.

PS: dont mind my abuses(i doubt if they ARE even abuses :P just go and write. for me and for Leo. ok???? GO NOW.

Nope. She's just a supporter of what is right. Now go write poem. Abhi! 

yeah i always support the right *assumes a saintly expression* :P write naaaaa DS. pleaseeee....

Yes yes.. pleeeeeeeease! 

Damn,  I can't pull off that cute wala "please" like she does. "cute". 

yay!!! so it seems an added bonus that i am cute :P :P *pats herself on the back*

so are you writing DS or should i change from 'cute' tactic to 'irritating' tactic??? 

Why take risk? Irritate bhi karte hai na, Kirti. Chalo! 

Ok. DS, i know you are lurking out there. since my cute tactic didnt work... i am switching to the irritating one :P :P i can multitask :P 

Ya. He's lurking. :P Very much.

see Leo. hum dono hamesha kisi na kisi ko bhaga dete hain :P :P

What bhaga deing.. he's still around. Ignoring us.

i think we bugged him a bit too much *feels guilty*

come back na DS??? pleaseeeeee?? :P

There's that cute "please" again.. Can't mimic.. 

So, abey saale cricket wise DS saab, wapis aao jaldi :P

bohot bhav khate ho DS!!

ab MAIN baat nahi karti! jao bhaad mein!!

and "doob maro in the bhaad" 

Nahi. we want a proper poem on ur blog 

DUH.

with a BIG, CAPITAL D

agreed. a proper poem is what we want, and a proper poem is what we will settle with

*folds her arms and legs and sits down firmly*

i am not going anywhere till you post.

huh.

Yes.. and a capital D it is.. and a bold one too. 

@DS,

No no. not enough. We want a proper, non crickety poem on your blog. 

nice try DS, but its not working... if you want me to die with joint ache(remember i am sitting with my arms and legs folded), fine... i will die that way, but remember that i sacrificed my innocent, kalf-lived life just for the sake that a friend will poem :(

PS: ok that was too dramatic :P

come on DS! i am not joking yaar! i love it when you write. and i am sure i will love it when you poem too!! i tell you every single time that you are a really GOOD writer, you would do awesome with crative writing... should i think that you didnt take me seriously then?? i thought you did.

sorry for the emotional blackmail :P but... i would love it if you write a poem... and i am sure Leo will love it too... more than that YOU will love it yourself too... just TRY... please...

Yeah, DS.. write write write.. (or do u write only if Watson tells you to? )

he he. chup chap pehle hi maan jate to itna drama nahi karna padta :P

ah my tired arms and legs... mommy!! i want a massage!! :P :P :P 

Mail not enough :P Go to cyber cafe and write.

Nahi. Ab tak to nahi 

No no 

haan yaar. ab bas karo. ab bura maan gaya to hum kya karen... sorry DS. if i hurt you. it was unintentional....

OK DS. me stops.

Yup are you watching it on TV

No.. on Cricbuzz 

Ok @ vinay ........ @ DS which thread should i read for your story there so many thread for Relay of stories....

Got it dear ....... You have pulled my leg by including me into the list of "the Great bloggers" ......

No no. That's right itself, DS the second! 

Thanks Ds ....... but still long way to go for me ... Others you have mentioned are class apart ......

@Dhiraj, dhiraj rakho. class is not in session 

Mahela is gone .............Drinks or Redbull did it ,.

@ DS ...........

Ya that's true :P He doesnt read mine and Kirti ka blog either. 

nah he reads mine :P

Lucky Kirti 

@DS, I have Cricbuzz ka live android app re.. not the website! Website dheela hai. I know.

This is probably the first time I have seen DS use a smiley Well Done DS

And @ DS ...........  Thanks from my side too ....

Which DS??? There are two of us here!!

I think we should have prefix/suffix so has to clearly distinguish the DSs .......

Yes Dhiraj, As you said... I will be DS1 and you DS2!!!

DS1 and DS2???????!! Noooooo, that will lead to more confusion!! 

Then DS1 and DS2 it is 

Ok. Drinks are on the field. India need some Red Bull I think 

duh. after 18 overs India were 73. now SL is 122. duh.

Such meager differences! 

and some luck probably ..........

Oh damn.. Mahela out after a classy innings!

Leo *glares at leo* kisko support kar rahe ho?????

Mahela ko! He deserved a century! 

tum jake bana dete uske leo.

Poor fella.. But he's set the tone.. and Lanka do bat deep.. 

Yes yes. Chandimal.. now waiting for some action.. need good partnership, they do.

I know. I saw.. but its not all settled in the Indian favor as yet.. 

Don't worry ....... Its for the moments ... SL will rock......
