Australia's 16th successive test victory

India lost the second test match at Sydney yesterday, making it the 16th straight test victory for Ricky Ponting's australian team.

Well, I said India lost, because Australia didnt actually win it.
Steve bucknor with his amazing decisions and Benson joining him at the right time for australia, made the game look like a Harry Potter movie, anything could have happened. Maybe Ponting diving ...the ball bumping on his head after he lands on the ground and the batsman in the picture given out .......... lbw !! ...lols...

I have always believed that australian team was good at the game but its clear that the half of its share goes to the umpires ! We must give credit to them as well...

What I wonder is, why Anil Kumble persisted with playing the match?
He should have gathered everyone from the team on the ground , clapped , and should have told Ricky " Well played mate, you win ! "... and should have come back home.

I was angry at first but as the play went into the second day, I was thoroughly enjoying it.
Benson and Bucknor gave a superb performance, acting highly thoughtful and logical when they were making those decisions, even the best of the actors (and politicians ;) ) in the world cant give such realistic live performance in front of so many cameras and the crowd.

How much did the umpires get for this performance? Hansie cronje would be weeping upstairs, wondering ,why he dint meet these guys before? ...lols... or maybe he did and maybe that explains the reason he is up there ;) ...

I strongly feel India should let the cry babies have their 17th, 18th, 19th whatever win and come back home, and prepare for the next series !!

Taare Zameen Par !!

The directorial debut of Aamir khan is really impressive. The movie is to the point, with perfect footage to every detail and the performances by the actors add the perfect finish to a very well made movie.
I got tears in my eyes watching the little boy being left alone in the boarding school.

The music is really very good, it brings out the feelings perfectly and set the mood, for the movie, right.

Aamir khan has created a masterpiece and I think this is one of the milestones of Indian cinema.
This movie is like the "must watch" one.

Darsheel safary is a genius !! He has portrayed Ishaan Awasthi to the perfection. In fact everything about this movie is perfect.

After the show got over, people gave a standing ovation and everyone was clapping. I have seen such a response from the people for "Lagaan", almost 6 yrs back.

Hats off to Aamir khan, he has not only directed the movie very well, but also has given another perfect acting performance. I think he is class apart from everyone in this film industry.

This definitely is the best movie of the year 2007 !
