    Heights of stupidity by Kohli in previous game and Siraj in this, it’s not wwe where you need to do all this. This year I have really hardly watched any games, and Kohli is slowing down the game so much, no middle or lower order, maxwell playing like a chimp, not sure if I will watch any match next year. Just not RCB generally IPL is becoming overdose of cricket.

     

    and what is with Rohit, he forgot how to hold a bat? We will be belted in WTC!!

    Somehow I get super creeped out by horror scenes involving door peep hole. That set the tone for me for the entire movie. 

    There's nothing unexpected in terms of horror and gore, but it's all done pretty well. 

    I have personally lost the appetite for horror movies, but good to hear that evil dead series is still doing great.

    Another great match. Dhoni still got it :majesty:

    3 overs 55 runs needed and bowling side looked under pressure :rofl:

    Credit should go to Sandeep more then anyone else, the last three balls were absolutely peach, and this after getting hot for two sixes. Three awesome matches in a row.

    Can other people get this too? Like a corporate account?

    No he gets some value worth of coupons every year which he can convert in coupon code, and the entire amount he gets exhausted in one week as we all put roomal on amount we want him to block. He just keeps some stuff for himself. No wonder i have 12 Adidas Pairs and only 3 Nike :D

    Inme aag kyun nhi laga dete?

     

    Get your Regalia upgraded to Infinia and close the rest.

     

    But for now:

    1. Forget ICICI

     

    2. Yes bank offers the lowest forex at 1.75% + GST = 2.065%. Indusind is 2.124%, Regalia is 2.36%.

     

    3. Yes Bank offers some 0.6% (airmiles) on all categories (some exclusions) and 1.2% (airmiles) on Travel & Dining (5000 spend limit/statement). Will not recommend this card.

     

    4. Indusind offers 1% per 100 bucks spent (airmiles), so net will be 1.124%.

     

    5. Regalia offers 1.65% (airmiles) + extra 1% cashback upto 1000/month i.e. 1L spends (by enabling Global value program at 300+GST/annum). So net is -0.29%.

     

    6. Even if you forget about airmiles for Regalia, GVP will make your net at 1.36%, slightly higher than Indusind but atleast it's purely based on cash and not airmiles.

     

    majority of the time I only use Amazon Pay :giggle:

     

    Will check on upgradging to Infinia, but since I don't have acct with HDFC would not be too quick, or will have to pay membership fees. 

     

    SO basically between the above regalia is better choice followed by Indusind.

     

    I thought Sapphiro was a good card, well atleast gets me two free movie tickets a month and is LTF

    Which cards do you have?

    Getting a new card just for one trip won't be beneficial and anyway it's hit/miss that you will be able to get a new card in time.

    Too many

     

    HDFC regalia

    Yes Bank Exclusive

    ICICI Sapphiro

    Indusind Legend

     

    and few more, but these are the good ones.

     

    WIll check on the acceptance, my brother travelled recently let me check, though I guess he would have mainly used his Swiss card.

    Yes, Really looking forward to this season & How teams use the impact player strategy. Top 4 this year for me: LSG-MI-RCB-PBKS/SRH. I have a feeling that RCB will lift the trophy this year :fear:

    Ya I have had that feeling from start of IPL, Kohli Panauti hai, till he is there, no hopes.

    So the season of IPL is almost upon us, what do you think of the new rules.

    1. Playing 11 can be named after the toss - Personally I think this is a great rule specially with dew taking center stage in second innings. 

    2. Impact Player - This I think is even better a substitute anytime in the match but before the 14th over of second innings. This adds a new dimension to the game and brings in tactics from outside the playing 11 also into the fold. Personally I am looking forward to see how teams are going to use this, I am sure lot of tactics are already being discussed. 

    3. DRS call for no ball or wide, this is also a good one, though it is the first two that will be more fun.

    Let's see how things pan out this year, waiting from an eternity for RCB win, let's see how they perform.
