    yeah, but you gotta give it to him, he hardly ever plays bad, he is bound to have a quiet time as well. sometime. definitely. But am happy that he has bounced back well. Love to see him smile. Poor guy, at the age of 30 he looks like 40 with all his white hair and all. The pressure of being an indian captain is high.

    Still around 20 only. But I heard from somewhere, that in the near future the price difference will be made to be around ~10. Don't no how true that is though.

    50-60km a day!? When I buy a car, I am not even sure, If I ll do 80 kms a week :P

    Guess petrol's good enough for me.

     

    that car will last you around 5 years, think about future as well. You may use it more later on.

    Yeah Ganguly was awesome, but Dhoni is really good as well. He just does not show his emotions much. He handles pressure really well. His mind is very clear. I can quote two examples:

     

    1. When India went for a tour after a very long break the reporters asked: How do you feel, he said that is up to you sir, if we win you would say we were fresh, if we lose you will say we were rusty.

    2. When Pujara scored a double hundred he was asked if he is relieved and he said the real test is in a away tour. When Dhoni was asked he said that maybe Pujara is reading too many newspapers or seeing too many news shows. He should just enjoy the present and worry about the future when it comes.

     

    He just knows how to stay calm, some think it is his arrogance that he does not appear sad when we lose, but similarly he does not jump with joy when we win. He's cool.

    The thing is he was unsold in the auction back then and rcb was lucky to get him.. I think next year auction he will be most expensive as all players go into auction....

     

    because he was not to play as west indies had a packed calendar, then he had the infamous fallout with the board and was free, so RCB bought him.

    He would have been raced after if his fallout was before the auction.

    That one player is awesomeness, he is not a slogger, never hits across the line. Knows which balls to block, which to hit. Takes his times, and targets bowlers. I have never seen such an intelligent hitter. Usually they are - AA BC, KAR BALL ABHI MAARTA HOON !!!

    Bad News: Car still hasn't shown up, at this rate it's going to be another month and a half atleast :(

     

    Worse News: Busted my ankle playing Basketball yesterday. First time this has happened in my life and the pain was not insignificant. Can't put any weight on my left leg or move the left ankle. Now I'm working from home with no way to go out because I don't have a car yet and can't walk (can only hop on my right leg till I get tired).

     

    get well soon

    Also how'd you have driven even if you had the car : :scratchchin:
