Nobody in their wildest dreams could have imagined the excitement, the fun and the thrill this competition provided. ICC World Twenty20 2007 revitalized cricket in the hearts and minds of many cricket fans including yours truly. This has been a tournament to cherish and enjoy in its entirety. In the end, its the young Indian cricket team lead by Mahendra Singh Dhoni that triumphed all other legendary cricketing teams. Its been a long wait of almost 24 years since India last won such a major cricketing tournament.

The shortest official version of the game of Cricket, officially known as Twenty20 is all set to stage its first world event starting tonight. In this version, both sides get to play 20 overs each. Shorter duration means more excitement, more fun and more fast paced action. There will be no shortage of boundaries and sixes as the best in the world compete amongst themselves.

As India celebrates its 60th year of independence, I’d like to wish all readers of this blog and all Indians around the world a Happy Independence Day! May our country continue its progress for years to come.

Jai Hind!

Last Friday, I went to watch the much publicized Himesh Reshammiya movie. It’s not often that I go to a theater to catch a movie but when this opportunity came along to chill out with friends, I couldn’t resist. Rarely do I take time out to sit down and write a movie review. Infact, as far as I can remember, this is my first ever movie review. Incase you come across any anomaly, you have two options. Just ignore it altogether or let me know so that I can improve my reviewing skills. So, here comes the review of Aap Ka Surroor - The Moviee and if you are wondering, I spelled the title exactly as seen on the poster.

The 2nd week of ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 turned out to be a disaster for billions of sub-continental cricket fans. The week began on a bright note for the Indian cricket team. Playing against Bermuda, the mighty Indian batting line up piled up a massive total of 413/5 in 50 overs. This is the highest total recorded in any World Cup match beating the 398 scored by Sri Lanka few years ago. The Indians then went on to win the match (or shall we call it a mis-match) by a record margin of 257 runs.

Week 1 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 was as exciting as it could get. It had everything true cricket lovers would have hoped for. The week started with the opening clash between West Indies and Pakistan. In a close encounter, West Indies managed to beat Pakistan by a handsome 54 runs. This loss meant Pakistan will have to beat the other two teams in its group to reach the Super 8 stage.

If some of you were wondering what I have been doing for the last year and half or so or what was the reason for lack of updates on my previous website, you’ll have your answers today. Right after the launch of my earlier website, me and some of my friends got together discussing the possibilities of a technology community and website. There were not too many technology related websites in India as computers and related technologies were rather new in these parts of the world. There was no one to guide the technology enthusiasts.
