Editor's Pick(PKL): Gujarat - Haryana

By
Both the teams are newbies to PKL. They meet each other for the first time this season. They are new. Excited. And finally on equal footing because they are meeting debudants.
While Gujarat resembles a fairly balanced team, Haryana need to work on their attack and defence strategies. It is not easy ofcourse. This is their learning curve.
My Lineup
RA-Vikas, Rakesh Narwal, Sukesh Hegde
DEF: Mohit Chhillar, Fazel Atrachali
AR: Kuldeep Singh, Seong Ryeol Kim
Alternate lineup
In my alternate lineup, I wanted - Wazir Singh, Sukesh Hedge, Fazel Atrachali, Rakesh Singh Kumar, Sunil Kumar, Pramod Narwal, Vikash Khandola. But I do not have sufficient points to fit them all. So I had to take off Rakesh Singh Kumar too. I now have 23 left. I have added Mighani. Lots of confusion this time.

RA: Vikas, Pardeep Narwal, Sukesh Hegde
DF:Mighani, Sunil Kumar, F Atrachali
AR: Deepak Kumar
Good luck !!

Editor’s Pick: India - West Indies

By
First Match - Abandoned Second Match - India Beat West Indies by 105 runs. Third Match - India Beat West Indies by 93 runs. Fourth Match - Hmm… I don’t really want to talk about it.
Oh well.. Here goes. It was a rather embarrassing defeat. The series looked very much in the kitty when India had to chase 190 runs. The faithful Indian Fans probably even started celebrating. Even though the first three wickets fell rather early, Rahane stuck in there and hit 60 runs to pave what looked like a really short road to victory. And then came Dhoni. No one would have even considered the chance of a defeat. Not even a pessimist.
Time moved slowly after that. Or at least Dhoni did. He batted and batted and batted. Remember that time Sunny Gavaskar scored a 174-ball 36 runs? It was 1975 all over again. Dhoni’s innings were just as excruciatingly painful. It would have been worth it had India won of course. India fell short of the target and West Indies won by 11 runs. They were probably surprised t…

Royal Challengers Bangalore - IPL 2014 team analysis

By
Here is a look at the RCB team for the 2014 IPL edition - and my take on it. Chris Gayle, Virat Kohli, AB DeVilliers, Yuvraj Singh, Nic Maddinson, Vijay Zol are the batsmen in the teamMitchell Starc, Varun Aaron, Ashok Dinda, Muthiah Muralidharan, Ravi Rampaul,  Harshal Patel,  Abu Nechim,  Shahab Jakati,  Sandeep Warrior, Yuzvendra Chahal are the bowlersAlbie Morkel, Sachin Rana, Tanmay Mishra are the allroundersParthiv Patel and Yogesh Takawale are the wicket keepers

The strategy behind this team selection was very confusion at first.But on careful analysis, I believe this might turn out to be one of the stronger teams in this year’s IPL.
The team has a tremendous batting line up with Gayle, AB, Virat and Yuvaraj.Throw in the big hitting Albie Morkel – this team will post huge scores, especially in good batting conditions – and win many matches just on the back of batting.In the bowling department, the team seems to have preferred the quick bowlers – all of them seem to be bowlers who…

Need for co-ed sports

By
Now, this is hardly a feminist piece. I am not here to tell you that women can do anything that men can and better too. One, you know it too. Two, this is hardly about women. I am not here to praise women and demand better rights. I am talking about the possibility that the entire field of sports can take a whole new meaning if gender is not made the criterion. So this is how the idea for the blog started.
The Women’s Indian Cricket Team performed really well at the world cup this year. Mithali Raj praised her team for their hard work, persistence, and passion for the game. She also added that there should be an IPL tournament in the country for the women’s team now. Raj believes that the team’s fantastic game has increased the fan following for the women’s team as well and that they have earned their place here.
While I am honestly not sure about an IPL tournament for women, it did get me thinking. Why not mixed sports? Now that girls play almost all the games that the guys do, why n…
