Suresh Raina !?

     I don't get it why some people hate Suresh Raina, and i mean a certain section of cricket fans in general (is that an oxymoron?), so i thought of writing a small post on the pros and cons of this guy, first of all i like Suresh Raina, not like i am a fan of him but just like him.

CONS:
  • Suresh Raina bats like sh*t on bouncy tracks, this is quite true, we saw how he batted in SA recently and even otherwise he has a reputation for playing like sh*t on leave bouncy tracks but short-pitched deliveries also,
  • What the f*ck did he do to deserve a place in the 11 for the first 30 odi matches he played?, as far i can remember he hit some match saving 70 odd runs in one of his first 5 matches and he went on for nearly 25 matches without scoring any useful runs,
  • Look at his technique! it resembles Dhoni's Neanderthal style in some shots, especially the big pull shots where he gives the spectators a free view of his abdominal area, yeah his batting looks sick and thats the most logical reason why he cant play the short ball properly.

PROS:
  • He is a very good Fielder,
  • He has a great record in the sub-continent,
  • He is a handy part time bowler,
  • He is not an asshole like Appam (people also call him Sreeshanth) or has any weight/attitude problems like Yuvraj Singh,
  • He is already being groomed to become the next captain (Sachin (i.e God) knows how many they are training),
  • all other Sh*ts included
     Basically i perceive him as a good T20 and ODI player, but downright unfit for tests, he did score a century on debut but that was in SL, dusty flat tracks even Dhoni can hit a triple there, fielding he has always been great, bowling , i don't get it how he is even allowed to bowl, but it always seems to work, captaincy and sh*t like leadership skills i have no idea, overall watch out for him the WC.
   PS: Damn!, this post looks a 8 mark answer i write for my exams!

The winter

Only one post in Dec and nothing until now, so what i did this winter? well there were exams and for some strange reason they reopened that useless college on Dec 8th when there exams until 15th, and announced christmas holidays from 22nd to 3rd Jan, i bunked that useless college on 21 and on 22nd i went to Hyderabad, and man hyd was really cool (quite literally!!!!), the trip to Sajarjung museum and Charminar was great but the next day trip to Birla mandir and planetarium was awesome and then due to some reasons i left my native place a little bit early, but hyd was really good and really different from Chennai, but chennai's a better city due to various reasons.
The Charminar

Kids Running outside Mecca Masjid
Birla Museum
I was back home at for the new years eve and i celebrated it watching HIMYM or some movie(i don't remember what i did that night!), and in the 2 week since, i saw 3 seasons of HIMYM, i don't know why i watch it but it's hilarious, romance is truly not my genre , the character barney stinson is the only reason why i think i watch it, THE RESULTS came and DSP f**ked as expected earlier but i never worried about it though, but this time there was some great fake hype around the timing of the results being released, like a stupid movie like endiran had before being released.
Picture this scene, you are going to college after a nice 10-15 day vacation and you meet your friends and the first thing they say is "Machi!!! today's result" but it doesn't come, next day, first thing in the morning, is the same stupid talk, as if the guy telling you this going to get 's' grade in all his subjects, but it doesn't happen as usual, then after 2 or 3 days you ignore these things but some absolute douche comes and says "Machi!!! i read a pdf in anna univ site machi, results are expected within the next 24 hours" like its a fu**king weather report, expected in the 24 to 48 hours!!, but it doesn't, then this hungama/tamasha goes on for another 2 or 3 days and the results come right when your are in the lab, quite a disaster, but luckily for me i carry a "i dont give a f**k about my results" attitude, so it was pretty cool except for the occasional screaming in the face of someone's face for mentioning  the word results.
So pongal/sankranti is already up and planning to spend these days with at least a little bit of fun, oh i have the idea i'll burn the college calender on bhogi morning, that would be fun.
