Day #1: PAcKed with WInd

Okaaaay!

That was an overwhelming response from all and sundry - will let you to decide on who is the sundry in our illustrious list of competitors.
With the sort of an upset victory from Windies (54 runs margin), we are off to a very good start to the Cup.

As the old cliche goes, it was down to one shot to the boundary, that would have made the difference between winning and losing in our Pool!

Before you go and check your stuff...

Congratulations to Ramesh L for being the first winner of the SriG Pool 2007! And that is a hefty win. For the record, Ramesh said that the margin will be 66 runs and he did not even bother to give the wicket-margin!! Oh, by the way, he just won $110 :-)) Ramesh & all, Please see my instructions elsewhere!

There is some problem in uploading pictures into the blogger.
So I had to indulge in web calisthenics (and I can assure you that I have a bad back and neck now - so much for insufficient knowledge).
So, please check the latest standings at my Picasa Album

Have Fun!

Now for the Can-You-Do-It-Without-Googling Trivia... (just to show that there is life outside cricket, however small! No points; Just pure quizzing; Reply to regular email ID pls!)

* Who is the heroine of the Shakespearean play - The Merchant of Venice and what is the link between her and modern-day banking ?

Until the next one...
