Murali the spinner the controversy

I have always been a Strong critic of Murali's bowling action. After seeing this video I have come to understand what it is in reality. He has natural limitations in his elbow and extraordinary range in his wrists by birth. Also the studies show that what we see as chucking is in fact an optical illusion. I really feel sorry for the way I thought about him, and have started to appreciate his craft. I hope he plays for long and display more of his craft.

Bring back "The god"

With lone opener in Gautham Gambhir and inexperienced middle order which has no clue against the M2 duo (Murali & Mendis), its high time we get some expert in spin. Even though Ganguly and Dravid struggled against Mendis in the test series, they are better known to read spin quickly than anyone else in the current team. I can hear Vengsarkar and co. whinig "young blood..... old people no fielding.... yada yada yada....". But they should have minimum one senior member (sachin or dravid or ganguly or Laxman) in the team all the time, not just for guiding, but because they are the only people who have proved that they can score in all continents (some what consistantly) when compared to others. I am not saying that the other people are not scoring. I am saying that nobody in the current team have cosistantly scored in foreign venues. BTW the God in my title is not sachin, but Ganguly. In the absence of sachin (the real god) we can utilize the services of the off side god Ganguly.....

Once in a while I get to go into the gulf waters for my work. This was shot on one of those fine days. I simply cannot help myself musing at the sky all the time......

Snapped this one at dusk at the ponchartrain lake. It was a treat to watch the sun set over the vast waterbody.
