That is why I said limits to greed. Changing match timings changes playing conditions to such a huge extent. Every other country is playing day matches. Only BCCI, which already has all the money in the world is trying to extract every last drop of revenue. Also how will you even compare the differences when there are no day matches taking place nowadays? At major centres, all ODIs will be houseful regardless of timing. Most people these days are streaming the matches on their phones, so viewership also has changed. At the very least this could be done on weekends. Also I don't get the obsession with running major events and finals late on Sundays when people have to get to work next morning.

More competitive than I expected. The last 3 Ashes in Australia have been 5-0, 4-0 and 4-0 and this England team is looking worse than the one from the last two tours. This is looking like a 5-0.

Or just start playing during normal time. Why the f**k is every single ODI Day/Night only? Surely there must be limits to greed.

Here's what I did. Flew to Port Blair, took a same day boat to Havelock. Immediately hired a scooty from an agent near the jetty @ Rs 500 per day. If you want a beachside resort, I highly recommend the east side of the island. Radhanagar beach on the west is nice, but only worth one sunset, not much more. You can instead spend the entire day chilling at Kala Pathar beach on the east side. The edge of the beach has thick tree cover and beds you can lie down on. There are food stalls nearby that serve good seafood. In my case I stayed at De Foret which is on the middle of the island. Radhanagar Beach was about 5 mins away and Kala Pathar beach was 20 mins away. Nice pool and food was excellent too. My first choice was Silver Sands Resort next to Kala Pathar beach but it was slightly over budget. A friend stayed at SeaShell resort and he highly recommended it but it was even more expensive.

Going to Andaman on LTC tomorrow. Will be staying at Havelock island, with a 1 day stay at Port Blair.

Gautam should be the first one to be shown the door in that case. We've gone from hopes of a competent showing in Australia to struggling against a far weaker team at home.

Every single home loss since 2012 (except for Bangalore last week) has been on a similar dustbowl. We didn't learn from Pune 2017.

What lund cricket. Why choose to bat in these conditions? What even is this batting line up? Why is Virat coming 1 down when former opener KLPD Rahul is at 6?

Congratulations Pakistan. If there was an award for dedication to being sh*t at home, you'd be 1st.

Imagine scoring 550+ in 1st innings and losing by an innings.

Only IPO I ever got was LIC.

I have already been to Jammu and Kashmir last year, so not planning for that right now, maybe next year. Sikkim sounds good. I was considering Meghalaya at first. Does Sikkim require ILP? If so how to get it? What about Andaman?

Looking to avail LTC later this year to either J&K, North East or Andaman. Any suggestions? Best times to visit?

Wife offered an upgrade from HDFC Moneyback+ to Millenia. Worth it?

Wow, what was this
