Cricketers Reporting and Cricketing Reporters
The Indian cricketing community is an extremely colourful community, and that is well known. Yet, I cannot stop being amazed by what comes up once in a way.

Sample the following from today's article on cricinfo -


no man, not even Jonathan "two thirds of the Earth is covered by water the rest by Jonty" Rhodes, can hold a place in a team on the strength of fielding alone. Kaif's numbers are dismal. 8, 5*, 0, 0, 4, 0, 0, 5, in his last eight knocks, an average of 22/7, 3.142857 ... If he remembers his high-school maths, Kaif will recognise that as the value of pi, the magic number that makes so many complex things so much simpler.

But nothing can ever beat Mr Sidhu (That is also well known). The following is what he had to say about the miss India contest

Beauty is worse than wine. It intoxicates both the holder and the beholder. Grace will last but beauty will blast. I would die for roses than live for bread. Beauty is eloquent even when silent.

And suggestions to the potential winners and participants

Fear clogs and faith liberates. The Indian girls need to be more self confident, articulate and adept at using the English language. The girls should be adaptable like chameleons; change colour according to the situation.

Truly, unbeatable.
