Cricket chit-chat
World cup mania has hit its peak, in this season of runs and wickets, I decided to do a few quick questions with select pals on their take on WC. I went over Gtalk to capture their comments. Here are excerpts from the chats.

me: yyaaaayyyyyyyy, super

My thought on this years world cup of cricket? One team will win, and the others won’t. Some people will be happy, others won’t, some people will care, others don’t. But all in all, for those of you who enjoy it, or unlike me, understand it, then have a great time watching it.
Narendra 10:37 pm on February 18, 2011 Permalink |
Totally, endorse you views.. For people like me, we don’t enjoy Cricket…we simply LIVE it…
Want my team to win, nothing less will make me and millions of followers happy 🙂
