RP Retires...

By -
2007 is a very important year for Indian cricket fans! Especially the month of September. First Round exit, shattered wc dreams,  Masscarenas massacre to Yuvraj. Till the month of September,  apart from a Robin Uthappa Innings there were nothing to cherish.

Then Comes T20 World Cup & Rest is history :-India dominating the World Cricket!

There were few Who put the base to this domination,  one among them hailed from a small town in India.  Even though he made his debut earlier,  this was the first time he came to lime light. A Left Arm medium Pacer with beautiful Action. RudraPratapSingh or RP Singh. Even though He played for many years in an in and out basis, for me He was the best bowler bowled in that T20 WC. Action,jump,Swing,Pace,aggression..Everything that a Pace Bowler needed was there for RP.
4/13 against South Africa still remains one of the best match winning Spells to me.  I remember On September 24 when India takes on Rivals Pakistan in Johannesburg,  whenever sreesanth -Bhajji get hit,  comes RP
Thrashes their stumps.  The Wicket of Kamran Akmal in the final as well the Pollock's wicket in the super8 still remains as one of the favourite scenes from Indian cricket. 

The jumps after knocking the stumps of Pollocks still giving Goosebumps to this small cricket fan :)
Thank You Rudra Pratap Singh 😍

Dhoni "THE SELFISH ARROGANT CREDIT STEALER"

This article is from my Heart. The Title may look strange, but in this country, this title would make a small proportion interested, rather than giving some titles in praise for Dhoni. Dhoni may be the most Popular cricketer after Sachin in this country, but one thing is sure, Even though Dhoni lies second to master in likes, in dislikes he is far ahead than the master. They are very few in number, but they who continuously haunts him, troll him, abuse him. That very few even wished India to lose, just see Dhoni's head down. But unfortunately, Captain Cool always treat those people or media as those three dogs in his house. Am not here to Worship Dhoni, or to go through the milestones he achieved. We watched him, we know him, so there is no need to go through his journey and if I do Words won't be enough to describe that.  There were nearly 453 captains in cricket, but only one won all the three ICC Trophies. ICC T20 WORLD CUP,50 OVER WORLD CUP, CHAMPIONS TROPHY, NO.1 IN TEST

White & Red!

Whenever India visits England or Australia, Every Indian Fan would have hopes of Building a Solid Foreign CV. When India finishes off their historic Afghan Tesr at Bengaluru in 2 days, I Was there at Chinnaswamy with greater hopes,wishing this time it’s going to be tough for England. Even today I Believe, even after burying all those hopes I Believe, unlike the former visits this series were really tough for home side. Apart From the Second test, Indians were never out of the context. I would say this is the best Indian Pace attack that visited England. 287,180,396,317,161,271,246;- The Bowlers really gave their 100%. Taking 67 wickets out of 70,never allowing a good batting home side to reach 500 or 600 is really an achievement. But Still we lost. How and Why? The difference between both the sides were When Indians had Sessions,England had days. And Test Cricket is all about Days. For me the Player of the Series is Sam Curran,followed by Jos Butler and Ben Stokes. I think the

Solid Cook bids goodbye :)

“The bowling might be bad but when Cook thinks he wants to block it, God forbid anyone trying not to sleep”. Those Words from a Spectator at Vizag defines Alastir Nathan Cook.   For us, He was not just an opponent but a brutual nightmare. We all admired his patience From The very first 160-ball 60 and the second innings hundred at the orange city. Even now when he claims‘there is nothing left in the tank’, we admire this left hander with little bit happiness as the greatest contender for Sachin bids goodbye.  Being the Captain,losing the first test, still scoring 562 runs and winning the series is something which make him the greatest rival to this Indian Spectator. Whether it be 294 at Edgbaston or  the highest score by a visiting batsman at the famous MCG, we can just say as one of the placard said “Commit all your crimes when Cook is batting. They will go unnoticed for even the Lord is dozing off to sleep.”   No More sleeping Viewers, The King of Blockathons bids goodbye! ThankYouC
