Wonderful IPL Final - Missed out

Oh Boy !! oh Boy!!! I really really missed watching this with my family.. I know that my mom would have screamed with happiness and my dad would have sat to watch it through (he generally gets tired after the first innings and dozes off). I really wish that I should have seen this with them. Its so so so amazing watching the highlights. RCB lost even before they started.. Their target was so huge in the conditions of Chennai, that it will be really really difficult for any other team to make it through with people like Ashwin, Jataki in form. CSK were in superb form right from the first match and that too the finals in their home town, oh come on, you must know that they will win it anyway.. :D

I am so so so happy for them. They deserve that.. now again :D just like last year, I really really wish that they retain the same team next year too :D and try to get a hat trick of the trophy..


All you CSK fans... superaa oru whistle poadungapaaa..

CSK - the T20 Champions :)

Okie..Its final, its over and its Official.. (Coz no one believed me when I said they were bound to win this time )..

I am very very happy that CSK won the Champions League today :), but I am little sad that I wasnt there to enjoy it :( I guess you cannot get everything for free!! Its ok.. I am so happy that they won a title, again.

You rock CSK... I seriously hope to have the same team again... :D

CSK in Finals finally

The main reason I quit watching cricket games was my inability to handle such tensions. If I was watching this in TV, I would have kept shouting, yelling, jumping, cursing..what not..thank god I had nothing to do of that sort today and had to sit quietly in my office cubicle refreshing the page every now and then !! except for my BP rising now and then, particularly when the rain stopped and then resumed... but atlast it was all for the good.. CSK WON!!! what a relief.. idhe en veeda irundhaa.. oru chinna kuthu dance poatirupean.. psst.. paravaaillai..
It was by D/L method.. and it wasnt a bad score.. but I guess lot of things went against Blr today.. injuries, rain, what not...
Wish I could have watched this match... You rule, my Kings!!!!... Good going and Win the Champions League cup for me please :)

Endhiran and CSK match - Crossed fingers

Oh my god... I just now realized that 24th Sept is very very important because,
a. CSK's big match against RCB
b. Endhiran release

and both are oh so important to me and I want CSK to do very very well and Endhiran too... I seriously hope Endhiran is no where close to Sivaji... Let it be better than that in 1000 ways...

and I want CSK to win very very badly... I hate it when sometimes these kind of things become so personal...but kya karein...

All of CSK and Rajni fans, please pray two times more on this very important day.

And the DLF T20 cup goes to...... Chennai Lions

Wow.... What a night it was , especially for me :)
I was up as usual for watching the finals between CSK and MI. Even though I felt that MI had a edge over CSK due to their consistent form, somehow I was confident that CSK would pull it off this time since they have already been here, seen this and knows what it takes.

I felt really sad for Sachin because he was this epitome of a true sportsman and leader who wanted to be there for his team inspite of his injury (am not sure if anyone else would have come to play with such a injury and to give a knock of 48 runs - highest for his team on such a crucial day !!!).. No wonder he is considered GOD of cricket. I respect him a lot for that.

Coming back to my boys... what can I say.. Raina was his usual self - be it batting, bowling, fielding..., Ashwin did give a great maiden over start, Bollinger with his wonderful first wicket and superb captaincy by Dhoni.. It was definitely a team effort and it showed off in their games.. I have always wanted to write about my favorite team but abstained from it because I wanted to write about it when they win the cup this time. I dont know why but somehow even inspite of their patchy start I always had the confidence that they will get it this time and when they reached the finals, I know they were destined to get it this time.

I felt the only advantage they had over MI was that they know what a pressure game would be and how it would be to not have the support of the crowd and how to react to such a non-cooperative situation of the game :)

I am not a great follower of cricket, neither do I know the technicalities of the game. But what I know is, that this form of cricket gives me immense entertainment (Test matches were never my cup of tea... and I really stopped watching one-dayers as I was getting addicted to the enthusiasm and in T20 I watch only if CSK plays and in case of WC T20, only if India plays..but follow other matches and their results). In spite of the politics that is happening outside of the field, of which I am least bothered, I really cherish the day when CSK lifted the cup. It became more special as they won after the midnight strike of 12 because it was(rather is) my star birthday and it was my perfect birthday gift for this year. Nothing could beat this happiness for me :)

I have always liked the coolness of Dhoni and I sincerely hope that we lift the WC also for T20 this time and the Champions Trophy too.

I wish the same team remains for the next years IPL too..

CSK-ku oru whistlea podu!!!!
