So the IPL is over, and fittingly, it finished with an amazing final game which Chennai lost of the last ball. Its sad, but when the dust settles, its clear that Rajastan DESERVED to win the IPL. NO big names, NO big money, just BIG guts and BIG determinations. Everyone in that team stood up and took responsibility. Whether it was Pathan and Watson smashing their way to a huge score, or Patel and Jadeja scampering a last ball win over Mumbai. The supposed "whipping boys" (they were dubbed that before the league even started, mainly because they were the cheapest franchise team in the league) came good in the end. Money can't buy everything eh?
fairytales do come true.
Another thing that I've only recently heard about is the Britain's Got Talent 2008 edition winner. For those who don't know, he's a 14yr old kid called George Sampson. This boy is a street dancer, and had to dance to play his fees, pay his mothers mortgage, and even pay to raise enough money to get into the show! Go youtube and check him out. He's simply amazing. The funny part is, he audtioned in 2007, but didn't make it through. But like Simon Cowell said, "he's the British version of Rocky." He never gave up.
fairytales do come true.
So now back to boring old me. Went for DSA trials on tuesday. I was really disappointed. There were a couple of decent players, but they were decent at best, scratchy at worst. I really hope they can improve by next year. Its funny, but I can never even think of considering myself as no longer in TJC cricket. Somehow I want to contribute even next year to this team. I haven't played in to 4yrs to leave without saying goodbye. =)
Let's hope there's one for everyone.
Cheers.
"Thats why I slipped out the back before you knew I was there,
I know you felt unprepared.
But every single time I was around I just bring you down,
and I could tell that it was time to be scared.
Thats why I slipped out the back before you knew I was there,
and I know the way I left wasn't fair.
I didn't want to be around just to bring you down,
I'm not a hero but don't think I didn't care."
