One-tenth of a year had gone by since this happened… And I am yet to comprehend anything beyond 2 !!!
“Nervous? After 18 full years in the cauldron, after 41 ODI hundreds and 37 Test centuries, after scoring over 27,000 runs in international cricket? That’s a bit like Edmund Hillary developing summit sickness on the descent from Mount Everest.”
….
“And, long after the advent of the World Wide Web, long after the hirsute entry of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, well after the Twenty20 glory, there still is Sachin Tendulkar.
But, don’t take that for granted. There will soon come a day when he’ll be gone, and Indian cricket, as well as our cultural discourse, will never be the same again.”

Quite a lot happened over the last 4 days !
When in school and college, we always use “festive spirit” to good effect to avoid work for a couple of days or even more ! But little did I realize that this can happen in your workplace too on the day before Diwali !!
The festival day was as usual for me - eat lots of sweets and do nothing else… But for all the time I spent watching the second half of the Indo-Pak ODI, I could have done something useful. Yet another 99 and yet another disappointing loss
Oh yeah, some of the “festive spirit” still remains for the next day and a fabulous dinner Ananth (Oh, he is the Tech. Boss at HeyMath!) gave at his home did nothing to reduce it
Had some great time with all the friends… Btw, his home is located in a maze somewhere in Anna Nagar !
It always feels good to be at college spending time with friends and thats exactly what I did today. Of course its Sriram who planned it and woke me up from sleep (a commendable task indeed) !!
