Hyderabad Bombing a solid arrest at last

Guess Indian Police can be effective when they want to be.....

yesterday they arrested the prime guy who did the bombing in Hyderabad...just based on description from an auto rickshaw person who allegedly took the suspect from Gokul Chat to Lumbini Park....

Yesterday I visited a police station(for some accident case).....Let me tell you that it was the first time I actually stepped in a police station....It was nothing like the one they show you in films ....No Lock ups....Pretty neat (For a police station) and the notice boards were filled with awards....And the officers were pretty cool ...no rough handling ...

So overall the site was far better than what I imagined...

.guess we need to give the police guys a bit more respect than what we give currently..

20:20 not your pure cricket

Yesterday saw the 20:20 match between SA anf WI....Although the match opened with much fanfare and excitement it excitement died down as it progressed....It lacked certain things which is associated with a typical ODI

1) the lack of inportance for strategy (Every guy has to just come and wield his willow ...nothing more ...nothing less)

2) Every bowler is the same : any guy ranging from the typical galli cricketer to Shaun Pollock is the same...irrespective of whether it is good length or short ball..the ball is hit for a six....This takes the essence out of the game.....which always has a 50:50 between the bat and the ball

4) At the end of the day....everything is left to chance....No respect for : batting talent...skill...strategy ...bowling talent...fielding ....Cricket as such...it is just entertainment which in my view is bull shit...

In addition the dance made by the cheer leaders was sure-shot purveying...felt bad that ICC has leaned to such low levels

Uncertainty is the most impotant thing abt cricket....and that clearly lacks in 20:20.....

So Long Live Cricket.....ICC has dug its own grave...

Creeping Instability

The AP Govt which I have rated as one of the best in India....goofed up again within a span of one month...1) the intelligence failure during the bombing 2) the Flyover debacle....

I wonder what the mindset of the CM should be during such circumstances ......personally I respect the CM...his intentions are good ...only the executions are not...again I would not hold him responsible for it as ...in his position he cannot keep a tag on all the happenings surrounding him....

My concern these intermittent failures shouldn't dishearten him and he should continue with his crusade..... We need a CM like him in every Indiasn state

God bless India
