Yuvraj Di Balle Balle

November 22, 2008 by Kuldip

Not too long ago, Yuvraj had failed in performing and everyone was criticizing him. Legendary Indian cricketer Kapil Dev had written about him that Yuvraj is not hungry enough.I think, that was the turning point. It hurt him at the right point and inspired him to bounce back.

As a result, a new Yuvaraj has been borned. Yuvi has turned the table around. Today, everyone has been praising him left and right. He had been the anchor of the first two wins against England in One Dayers.  With his aggressive 138 not out in the first ODI, India crushed England. And then a very persistent 118 in the second ODI when India was struggling and needed a mastaero like Yuvaraj Singh. The Singh prooved that he is the KING.

With his impressive innings against England, Yuvi moved India to third position and he himself crancked into top 10, a big feat for him.

Kris Srikkanth, the chairman of India's national selectors, has backed Yuvraj Singh to take the Test middle-order spot vacated by Sourav Ganguly, the former captain who has retired.

And not to mention his rumors about flirt with Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone.

Yuvi, Balle Balle! Chakde Fatte!

ODI3: India barely wins this one

August 24, 2008 by Kuldip

Zaheer Khan claims 3 wicketsWatching Zaheer Khan bowling in the 3rd ODI, I felt as if he started from where he had left  in 2nd ODI against Sri Lanka. He claimed 3 for just 23, leading India to 33 run victory over Sri Lanka.

I know MS Dhoni will get all the credit for this victory for scoring needed 76 runs. But I would like to defer with all those. But for Zaheer, it would have been difficult to bring down the Sri Lankan innings. He has been the most successful Indian bowler in the series thus far.

In a way, he was the difference maker in this One Day. He was able to control the home team which was at 94 for 7 at one point.

94 for 7 is no big deal in this series. India and Sri Lanka both of them had been in this situation during the first two one dayers. Sri Lankan captain, Jayawardene, along with Thushara tried carrying the innings. He scored 94 and had almost rescued the side. But he couldn't go farther enough to win the ODI.

Earlier India started on a sloppy note. The openers scored 39 before going back to pavilion. Indian captain MS Dhoni, scored 76 with eight FOURs to take India to 237 for 9.

India leads the series 2-1.
