AB de villiers dreams fractured!

Ab de villiers is out of the champions league 2011. He has fractured his finger in a training session for RCB. If you ask me, i feel he had it coming! Not just me, anybody reading his tweets too would.
like here's his tweet before the unfateful incident

                                           " Morning practice in Bangalore. .....gonna be physical! "

and heres the one before

"Tough fielding session with Ray Jennings today!...."

if Ab finds a fielding session tough, guess Ray jennings was really pushing him. Or maybe someone from the team just got tired of the superhuman fielding standards he was setting and deliberately did it. Either ways it's just Ab's fault. Afterall not every player likes to be made to feel useless and Ab should understand that.

But what really pissed me off is Ab's reaction to the turn of events. Obviously very disappointed he says.

the fuck?? disappointed for what AB? for not being able to play for rcb? for not being able to put in your 400%  in just another game of this shit tournament? for not being able to make the commentators squirm in their seats and orgasm as you play your shots? did he think this was just another fairy tale story with ''and they lived happily ever after..." ending?

 Someone really needs to slap him and wake him up for christ's sake! He is supposed to be leading south africa for the first time and that too against the aussies. but now there are concerns over whether he could be fit to even play, let alone lead the side. These thoughts however, don't seem to be bother him at all as sometime afterwards he is there again on twitter interacting with his friends and family.

PEOPLE SUCK! THIS WORLD IS A PATHETIC PLACE! AND IF YOU AREN'T GOOD YOU WILL BE DEAD SOON!
-(from the diary of shane watson)

See that? learn something from him.

post titled ' Depression forces Pomersbach to take hiatus from cricket.'

this dude never became mainstream for the kind of talent he has.
hope he recovers soon.

just wondering what would happen if the guy was somebody like Irfan Pathan.

wondering WHY HASN'T HE SLIPPED INTO DEPRESSION YET?!.

how does he come up season after season only to be told by people "You don't have it in you anymore."

feel that irfan pathan is gonna be one of those players who will certainly look back at his life one day and shed a silent tear. afterall he was top cricketer. he really was...

Apparently, Callum ferguson is Australia's answer to India's Virat kohli (yes, the villain remember).
Same style, similar shots and wierdly similar looks.
see here:

virat kohli and callum ferguson

See that? the villian has a clone now. Beware raina beware!

anybody wondering why no posts on mumbai indians...?
thats because it is a team that has harbhajan singh as it's captain.
do you really wanna know more?

the good thing about kkr matches is that we get to see Ryan ten doeschate. This guy has single handedly kept the name Netherlands ( or Holland as some might say ) alive in world cricket. he is a good ambassador for the sport in his nation and belongs to the same league of players like Shane watson. top class.

dude

Jacques kallis was made the captain of the kkr in absence of gautam gambhir. He wasnt very happy with the decision and one who's known him would be sure that he would do everything possible to piss the coach enough to take away the captaincy.
First he scored a run a ball 30 odd in the first qualifier to make sure kkr didnt get to a great total. Miraculously kkr won. The next game saw him make a single digit outing for his cause. All this had such an impact on people in the kkr camp that gautam gambhir himself forgot about his own injuries and offered to lead the side. Afterall there's a reason why all these years playing for South africa and we didn't see too many times of him as a captain.

just want to say all those years of cricket i have seen and no-one more uncomfortable with captaincy than Jacques kallis. Infact it would be safe to say that Kallis is more uncomfortable with captaincy than a Hobo without makeup.
the only new thing with his captaincy was that atleast we got to hear his voice...during the toss. Other times he was back to his usual self

which is why the photographer who took the pic below should be awarded

zombies don't smile

unfortunately, no gayle-storm today just some passing showers! Now to see Ab play against his south-african brothers.
i must admit though, clt20 isn't very catching. Plus the commentary is like dead. this maybe the last match i will watch. Or wait i may not even see this one completely!
(meanwhile...)
Botha to Ab: Six!
Botha to Ab: OUT!

and i have pressed the power button on the remote. Time to move on...

just another ugly opening ceremony here to the champions league t20 2011. the performers:
1. Jay sean: who the fuck is he??!!
2. Flo rida: I wanna shoot myself.

 the entire ceremony was misery redefined not only for the viewers home but also for the cameramen and it showed! You know it when you see the same people again and again making an ass of themselves just for the big screen. I could recognise the three blonde cheerleaders even in a crowd now! I think the nauseous feeling due to the opening event will stay for sometime now.


Anyways so the opening match is between the rcb and the warriors. Hope Gayle can murder the bowling just like he murders english on twitter.

No to kids vs MEN

Kids shouldn't be allowed to play international cricket alongside men. You see the problem is there are guys like Shaun tait, who are just waiting to hunt and kill them, maim 'em the least.
Here's Ab de villiers when he was made to play as a kid

And then Shaun tait nearly killed him (broke only his ribs, thankfully?) .here's the video

But he was 'AB' so he survived.
The following kids may not be so lucky:
1.Colin Ingram,SA

2.Kane Williamson,NZ

I know there are more kids out there but i once secretly read tait's diary ( if he knows he will kill me too, risky job this blogging) and he had mentioned it on his 'to-do' list. Some friend or relative of theirs happens to come across this post by chance, do inform the kids to stay at home when this monster is on the pitch.

shaun tait. favorite dish: cricket playing kids who think they are cute.

P.S. this is tom cruise and not shaun tait. not too much of a difference with the looks huh?!

yes people, Dravid has fallen short. its sad. that he fell to graeme swann is sadder but getting out to swann is still so much better than getting out to barbie. thats the last you will hear from him in odi's. sounds scary when i put it that way.
Villian Virat has found a unique way of getting out. Hitwicket bowled Graeme Swann??/ he's gone for 107 from 93 balls.
Once again the Raina-Dhoni affair will prevail. As i type Raina has hit Bresnan for a straight six. Bresnan's face is similar to a zoo monkey being denied a banana.
Meanwhile lets quickly go through the list of injured players
1.Zaheer khan
2.Virender Sehwag
3.Gautam Gambhir
4.Yuvraj singh
5. Rohit sharma
6. Ishant sharma
7. Praveen kumar
8. Harbhajan singh
(Notice harbhajan's name is in last.)
See that? see that you pommies? If you are bragging about your win which you probably are, shame on you. Add to that the rain which saved your asses a couple of times. Yeah yeah, now you are taking about Irish born Eoin morgan and barbie Broad's injuries?! do note that its towards the end of the series.
And as far as this matchis concerned, India is going to win this one.

if you ever hear Sourav Ganguly doing commentary you might wonder why this man is in the commentary and not on the field. Well here's the reason. It's because sourav likes to think he is an intellectual. And because there are so many thoughts he is at a loss to pick one.While this ability of him might earn him a contract for commentary, well...not so much for batting. Also whats with alan wilkins? an arab accent while calling Virat kohli,a persian accent while calling jade dernbach...certainly taking multilingualism to a new level!
Coming to England, team India have lost 7 consecutive matches which include 4 tests, 1 t20 and 2 odi's although the rains saved the pommie ass a couple of times. One might wonder if team India should have left earlier when they were 0-2 in the series citing safety issues due to the ongoing riots. But its too late now. Being 0-7 down to the poms, all India can do is try to win the last match and think that they have salvaged some pride, they haven't the least but still...

'' i dedicate the series win to London zoo. Had a great time there with Wilf and Mrs Swann yesterday." 

Very funny Graeme. Mrs Swann is a brave woman.

I will try to be optimistic and hope that team India enjoyed shopping and go karting in England. Esp Varun aaron. the lad is getting a good lesson of being patient. One day he will be picked. Interesting to see what happens then. till that time we will continue to endure Munaf and his pathetic antics. He is just a fucked up copy of former great glenn mcgrath. Speaking of mccgrath, and australia in particular, they have won the first test and Shaun marsh has hit a ton on debut. He should just smile once a while or atleast smirk with disdain lest he too be classified as a zombie. I am sure Simon Katich is watching all this, getting emotional remembering his good old days and helping himself to another pint of beer. Just another victim, just another bat silenced for eternity..
Returning to the India-England series, India are looking good for a change. India 200/2 in 39 overs with 'the villian' Virat Kohli on 80(75) and Dravid on 63(73). hope he can get to a 100. as i type villian Virat has hit ramesh powar's distant cousin samit patel for 16 in the over. 40 overs gone, Ind 216/2.
