Ganguly: Doing It His Way
Sourav Ganguly’s surprise announcement on October 7, that he will retire following the Australia series, was like his trademark offside drives, impeccably timed. What better way to go out than against the top team in the world, playing at home, and with nothing left to prove.

Have Pace, Need Polish
If someone a decade ago had suggested that India would soon have about ten Test class pace bowlers but only a handful of Test class spinners, he or she would have been laughed out of the room. But the reality is that is exactly where India is today.

Interesting Times For Cricket Fans
Being a cricket fan today is like suffering from multiple personality disorder. There are three types of cricket: Test cricket, ODIs, and Twenty20s. Besides that, there are National, Domestic, and hybrid International-Domestic Twenty20 club teams to follow. There are even three different Twenty20 club leagues to follow, the ICL, Stanford T20, and the IPL. What is a fan to do?

Time To Put Dhoni In Charge?
When Dravid quit the hot seat that is Indian cricket Captaincy, people expected Mahendra Singh Dhoni to be next. But the selectors realized that with series against Pakistan and Australia coming up, it may be wise to split the job. They appointed Kumble to be the care-taker Test Captain until Dhoni was ready, giving the ODI captaincy to Dhoni. Dhoni is now ready for Test captaincy too.

Supermaniam Badrinath: Takes Off

Badrinath has finally got his chance to shine, after nearly a decade proving himself at the first class level such that among active Indian players he has a first class average second only to the great Sachin Tendulkar.

The two combined to give India a one-two combination at the top that was sufficient to knock back Sri Lanka in at least one match, despite the poor form of the middle order.

Sri Lanka v. India: Definitely Thums Up!
After the brain-numbing, bowler-destroying, flat pitches in 1997, resulted in 5 straight draws, India and Sri Lanka did not face each other in a Test series for nearly half a decade. But since the series in Sri Lanka in late 2001, India and Sri Lanka have played each other eight times with only one weather induced draw, in Chennai in 2005, where just over 100 overs were possible.

The Magic Of Lanka
Sri Lanka has been giving the cricketing world these magical cricketers who seem to possess a freakish edge over the rest. After doing diligent and exhaustive research for around 10 minutes i came to this startling conclusion: It is all mythology

Spin Is Kinng!
India were thoroughly outclassed by a spirited Sri Lanka team at the Sinhalese Sports Club. It was an embarassing display by a team full of veteran players. What was particularly galling was that on a spin friendly track, the Indian spinners found little traction, while their batsmen, once renowned as masters of spin, just ask Shane Warne or Stuart MacGill, were bamboozled by it.
