Thanks guys

Parents' reaction after topping school in a board examination. Insignificant.
First salary cheque. Okayish.
Being a father. A moment of joy.

Ricky Ponting's expression after India chase down 216 after being 124/8. Now that's what the MasterCard people call priceless.

Heartbreaks. Diseases. Demises. Joblessness. Tsunamis. Wars. Fardeen Khans. Religious riots. These. Whatever happens, these guys always bail you out of it. Always.

And amidst the Gavaskars, Kapils, Vengsarkars, Azharuddins, Tendulkars, Kumbles, Srinaths, Gangulys, Dravids, Zaheers, Dhonis, he has, and shall remain my favourite cricketer. Forever.

Thanks guys. Thanks VVS. Thanks for making me live, as opposed to breathe all these years, despite everything.

  7. I demand a Bharat Ratna for VVS Laxman. He has taken revenge for all the beatings of Indians off the field with his bat on the field. :)

    Good one mate, its a special day and it`ll remain special ten years later too.
