Yeh.. its true... i sense something...
btw... indian sport doesnt start and end vth CRICKET!!!
wot timing the movie was released...
Straight away after the release... India... in cricket wins... a Test Series in England.. after 21 years.. tht too.. defeating an England team.. which hasnt lost a home series in last 5 years... tht was good...
The movie.. also.. got into limelight.. the women hockey.... hmm..
A wave has been created.... a new Spirit of Indian Sports.... CHAKE DE!!!!
The icing.. just came.. yesterday... in India Football....
i am not a gr8.. football fan at all.. nor do i follow... the various club championships...
Yesterday.. while scrolling channels.. i came accross a match - India v/s Seria ... ok.. but.. i didnt change the channel.. vch i otherwise would hav... the reason being.. india 1-0 ahead.. ok.. tht hav been wiped out in past... but.. the time was 93 mins.... ok.. this is cool....
Then.. India eventually won.. i saw.. fanatic celebrations... by players.. the crowd.. also. the commentators where shouting there lungs out.... i was like.. this isnt oridinary win..
It wasnt... India had won.. Nehru Cup .. ok tht ment it was a final.. vch i obviously.. dint know... i thought.. tht might b a fluke.. but then.. hearing the progress in the tournament by india.. i was pleasantly surprised... v had beaten a team 6-0, bangaldesh by 2-0... lost to seria.. but.. then.. beat turkey 3-0 to reach to finals..
The suprising part.. v won this cup for the first time ever after 56 yr it started!!!!!!!!
But.. it was in delhi... in a ground.. tht was packed to rafters... the atmosphere comparable to any cricket match in india.... the crowd.. also.. vth loads of placards of the same Chake De theme... more over... the Football fedration head.. was.. also.. running on the ground like a young kid... was celebrating vth the squad.. it was a pretty site..
Let all the Sports... Ride high on this new wave... CHAKE DE!!!! INDIA!!!!!

Indian Cricket - Succession Planning Nightmare
So... it seems India Cricket is getting back on its feet... slowly but surely... test series win against England was good.. before tht... one-day series win over South Africa... so.. things getting back a bit... its good
But... wots sad to see .. especially in test squad (which is doing better than the one-day unit) .. is the BIG FOUR.... Sachin, Dravid, Dada & Laxman ... r the center of the batting..
Wots sad to see is tht none of the youngsters are able to break these fabulous four... kaif is back to wilderness... Yuvraj.. isnt tht gr8 test player...
These four will b retireing very close to each other... and there could b a huge hole.. and v can see a big dip in the Indian Cricket...
It this situation building up to b a classic case of Succession Planning... or lack of it ?!?!?!??!
