Damn NeoSports!

I am currently watching the cricket match between India and Australia on Neo Sports. And yes I am really pissed. DD National is far far better than Neo Sports. The quality of Neo Sports is better of course in my Tata Sky connection. But the number of ads it is airing is uncountable. I thought SetMax gave the highest during the world cup, but I was completely wrong. Neo Sports is skipping overs to show breaks. It has happened thrice already an in 35 overs and so I am swiched on to DD National now.

The most amusing thing is Neo Sports is airing two channels, Neo Sports and Neo Sports Plus. And both are showing the same thing, even the breaks are same. Is this some way of extracting double money??? Or there is nothing else to show??? Who knows??? But really what were they thinking when they gave the broadcasting rights to this channel???

Second thoughts: May India win....

T20-The future???

All this while 50 overs cricket has been tiring, not for the players as much as for the viewers. Especially when batsmen like Rahul Dravid came out to bat. And just when people were realizing cricket was a time consuming game, out came the twenty 20. ANd thank God that my South Africa trip clashed with the ICC T20 world cup. (Well not exactly, you know everyone loves to brag about things. But yeah I was there in the India matches.)

So it was quite an experience to watch the run feast, especially those sixes by Yuvraj Singh. The bowlers were almost crying, most of them, you can say. But the whole event was a tiring process, not only for the players but also for the spectators. You could not rest you eyes. Well you could, but you wouldn't be there if you did that thing in the first place.

So seven days after the final we finally got some time to enjoy, visiting the countryside and finally I am back to where I belong. And I did hear about the procession of the team in Mumbai. Well the thing to lookout for now is the upcoming series against Australia. I think India had a close save with the rain Gods helping them. But nobody really discussed about that match because everyone was still remembering about the T20 cup. Just keep on thinking about the past, forget about the future. Hasn't that been the Indian policy for long.

BCCI offered 1crore and a Porsche 911 to Yuvraj Singh. Guess what The ICL gave??? All the above, plus a candle light dinner with Kim Sharma.
