Ravi's Blog

I have been blogging for sometime and i used to read other's blog also. Though i follow few blogs regularly which u'll find on the leftside corner of the page.

A year or more than that, i found one blog in net. Actually it all started with Sadhguru. Rama was always talking high about sadhguru and by interest i was searching articles about him and ended up in this blog: http://hisnobelwoes.blogspot.com/. This blog doesnot comes under any category, it's more like a personal diary of a pessimist person. I really donno whether this person is really a genius or just one more bloke. But one thing for sure, if you read this blog you'll be dazzled\confused and at times feel like meeting this person.

Why suddenly i m writing abt this person ? coz, in my blog followers i found this person...so little surprised and lot shocked, so thought of mentioning abt him. Read the blog, atleast u'll come to know even we can blog in these ways ;)

MPL updates: Blazing Hawks Blazing moments


MPL kicked off on Monday, but the real performance of bat n bowl happened today with some amazing performance by our Team(Blazing Kawks). The winning streak started right from the toss as Aswath called for Heads and Heads it is. As per the plan we fielded. As you all know, first couple of overs were reserved for girls but they know little about our girls. Can you imagine a girl coming down the wicket and hitting over the mid-on ? well our Sushma can do that. Can you imagine a girl pulling the ball over leg square ? well our Nisha can do that. Can you imagine a girl bowling Yorker and can stop the lightning speed ball with ease ? well, our Shilpa can do that. Enough of introduction, now to the game. First over were bowled by Sushma and Shilpa was rested today. The line and length was straight and accurate. The opponent team can come up with just one run losing both their girls.

Then comes the men’s brigade. Ashwath’s unlucky steak of “missed-catches” continues in this series also. Sorry Ashwath, we’ll ensure that it wont happen again. Ashwath end up with 11 runs in two overs. Anwar was as usual accurate and fast. He gave the first breakthrough for opponents men’s brigade. The batsman miscued and swing the bat it went high and bowler and keeper were rushing to take the catch. As they are approaching the ball, there comes the voice “leave it..it’s mine”. To our shock it was Sushma who judged well adjusted herself just under the ball and took the catch. Almost the whole ground came to still for a fraction of second and then there was the loud outburst. Anwar completed two overs conceding 7 runs and taking an important wicket.

After the first wicket, it was cake walk for our second set of bowlers Sudeep and Anupam. Sudeep the second fast bowler(nxt to lightning speed vishal) came in for the bowling change. The batsman got absolutely no clue where the ball is pitching and where it’s taking turn. Well it was more like a practice for wicket keeper to move on leg and off side to stop the ball. With this type of neat bowling it would be injustice if he was not awarded with wickets…and he got two. An excellent catch from Abhishek and an easy catch for the keeper. Sudeep conceded 4 runs in two overs and took two wickets. Then Anupam, Mr. Variation Expert, was as usual un-predictable. He bowled on the right areas so that batsman cant make any big shots, and if someone tries, then it will be a wicket for sure. He took two wickets. Anwar took a catch in long on and other wicket was stumped by the keeper. Anupam ended with conceding 7 runs and taking two wickets.

Now few words about fielding, a pretty decent work from fielders although its not upto the mark of blazing hawks. Anubav was at his best on the leg side with those accurate throws and sprinted fielding. He was as quick as supersonic. Altogether some excellent fielding efforts from Nisha, Sushma, Anupam, Ashwath, abhi, vishal, Prasun, anwar, anubav, Sudeep saved lots of runs. Altogether a good effort from the team.

So the first innings ended with 36 runs and we need 37 from ten overs. Our girls opened the innings, the only thing told to them was “don’t finish the match in two overs, guys also need to bat”. But it seems like Sushma didn’t even mind it as she hit the first ball to boundary on the leg side. Together they scored 11 runs and made the target easy for the guys. Then came the star openers Anurag and Abhi. Both were cool and confident. From the first ball they went on hitting the bad balls and rotating the strike on good balls. Abhi played with ease and hit 3 boundaries. He scored 16 of 8 balls. Though the score was not huge, abhi was little hungry for snacks so he ramped up the innings fast and he finished the match in 4.3 overs.
