You don't like him? 😲

Rahane did well. Good to see him do well in the middle order. Well deserved place.

Jadeja/Ashwin are our weak link. Makes me wary that we depend on their bowling/batting although Jadeja has been doing well.

@Hadey- Not hate, but yeah not too fond of him as a person. History.
As a crickets always have appreciated him, especially now.

@Rahane is a star guy, his game is so like Dravid. Jadeja- I never liked, he is good for sub- continent/t-20, don't even know why he gets so much hype as a spinner.

Ashwin survives coz of Dhoni/CSK

Rahane played so well in the second NZ test. It was a well-deserved century. After being ignored so many times for the likes of Raina and co, he finally got a chance and proved his worth. Even in SA he held his own while wickets tumbled around him. What hurt about McCullum's triple was not that we lost the chance to win, but that he rained on Rahane's parade. It was a pleasure to see him and Dravid bat for RR last season. Even in a game of T20, pure class. They could deal in fours and sixes without ugly shots.

I used to think of Sir Sir Jadeja as a big joke. But he's grown on me. He's the handy man of the team. He's not a great spinner, but he is a great support bowler who goes through his overs quickly and contains the runs. He's not a great batsman, but he is that lethal force who can come in the death and change a game. He's an exceptional fielder, one of the best currently.

Ashwin is a waste . Either he improves or we replace him with a quality spinner. He's a half assed jack of all master of none now.

So Katy Perry's got herself in to trouble with the controversy surrounding her new video. Question - are people being too over-sensitive or are these celebs ignoring cultural and religious sensitivities? I would genuinely not be surprised if she's bombarded with hate mail or death threats and is forced to pull down the video.

LMAO! At first I was like how many ancient Egyptians live today to be offended. 😆

Then I googled and found out it is over some Allah pendant.

Here is the full text of the petition against her. (From Time.com)

"At 01:15 into the video Dark Horse a man is shown being burned, whilst wearing a pendant (also burned) forming the word Allah', which is the arabic word for God. Such goes to show, that blasphemy is clearly conveyed in the video, since Katy Perry (who appears to be representing an opposition of God) engulfs the believer and the word God in flames.

This is the reason for lodging the petition so that people from different walks of life, different religions and from different parts of the world, agree that the video promotes blasphemy, using the name of God in an irrelevant and distasteful manner would be considered inappropriate by any religion. We hope that the video itself depicting such images is removed. Such acts are not condoned nor tolerated, we hope YouTube will remove the video."

The pendant is barely noticeable. I don't think Katy even knew about all the iconography her suitors wear in the video. She isn't representing any opposition to God. She is just being a hard to please Katypatra. 😆


Its both. Celebrities are too dumb to think off what they are doing. (I found the entire video comical). People just get their panties in a bunch over dump things.

But thanks to the petition and controversy, Dark Horse will race to a million views.

Confession - never cared much for Zoya Factor by Anuja Chauhan , so never bothered to follow much of her work. Recently was forced to read her other book - " Battle for Bittora" - loved , laughed and so relevant for this year's election time. So if you guys want a quick light read, check this book - absolute laugh-riot!

So totally out of sync with celeb news..😛
did miley turn the way she did post her liam breakup?😆



Reading some article on paul walker..and can't help but wonder how things turn out... from chasing cars to dying in one.. is it just us and our spirituality as a subject making me think of what can be best described as irony.. or are there bigger forces at play..

How I wish somewhere, sometime.. this age old curiosity can be satiated..

What causes the world to be intelligent???

#Rain makes you serious 😛
