Dhoni acting in a movie

Well almost! no joke, it is a commercial with Dhoni acting as the hero dancing (should I say almost dancing) with bollywood babes, dialogues and Sharukh Khan playing the role of a cricketer a.k.a dhoni... a role swap scenario between the two. Hmm... Dhoni seems to be taking his role rather seriously... Chuckles guaranteed... ignore the ad at the start of the video. Watch the video The above video is the shoot... To watch the full video, catch it on Dinnie's Six and out.

How PCB’s dropping of Inzamam was a big blunder

It's funny as the first test concluded, ones thoughts runs through the huge void in the middle order of the Pakistani Batting line-up. The absolute over-dependence on Mohammed Yousuf and Younis Khan has hurt Pakistan so much, that I bet the PCB would know look back and see how irrationally and impulsive their decision was to leave out a true giant of a cricketer in every aspect of the game, Inzamam Ul-Haq. Even on the days where the two big "Y's" of Pakistan are on song, the depth for the killin...

1st test: India beat Pakistan by 6 wickets

The formalities were over... India beat Pakistan by 6 wickets. To me it was a boring test match with very ordinary cricket played.

At the end of the day, India came through because they had a better batting line-up than Pakistan and the di...

Kaif roughes up photographer, apologizes

Indian cricketer Mohammed Kaif had roughed up a press photographer who tried to take a picture of him when he was coming out of a cinema hall. And incredibly, the film he had just watched was the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer 'Om Shanti Om' lol... Sharukh Khan must be jumping in joy with all the publicity Indian cricket is giving. First with BCCI's remarks on him hanging around the Indian cricket team and now this incident. Coming back to the incident, an FIR was filed and the next day, Kaif apol...

Day 2 – Laxman & Dhoni hold the fort as Pakistan dents India

At the end of play on Day 1, I had perceived that the Indians would not find it easy batting in their first innings and Pakistan pretty much had a great day today to knock the stuffing out of the Indian batting line-up, ending the day's play at 228/6 with Laxman remaining unbeaten on 57. Earlier in the day, India restricted Pakistan to 231, after a rather bizarre dismissal of Misbah-Ul-Haq, who has also now developed the knack of getting out in the craziest of ways. Misbah was out for 82,...
