Donnnn's cricket...

Its been more than a month since we have started off with Donnnnns cricket. For the uniniated its our version of gully cricket that we play in the hallowed l-base. The trigger was when Gb came down to campus and asked us to revive the k-base cricket. The next day evening, i just casually asked Thatha that we shud buy a bat for playing cricket and to my surprise thatha agreed. I was counting on RK, Dr. vasudevan (both of them expert cricketers) and Sandy to occassionaly chip-in to play. It was difficult to imagine Kris p or Sesh playing given that i have never seen them playing any sport ;)

But what happened in the next few days really surprised me. I was more like may be once is a week we will play for an hour. But then PK surprised me. His enthusiasm for cricket knew no bounds. In fact it was infectious to the point of dragging in Kris P and Sesh. Kris P is a good pace bowler in our 4 yard pitch and sesh can play some glorious cover drives. Now thats interesting...

Things took off on a good note where we started playing almost everyday..infact now we play around two to three times a day.Come to think of it, its a validation of how vela we are. I should credit PK with driving the whole thing... Without him i guess we wouldn't be playing so frequently. New members joined in a few days time. Suri is still learning the basics but its good fun to have him around. Jooz comes down whenever he takes a break from his CA mugging...

All in all i would say that Donnnns cricket has been succesful beyond my wildest imagination. Also i would say it has helped us gel better given that most of these guys are maggus to be frank. If there is something missing to complete the perfect picture, i guess its DR's absence.. but once he is back from exchange it would be really wait for it..its coming..AWESOME...Hope that this interest lasts that far :)
