After that ebb against Bangladesh, SA got it right today. Or should I say that Lara got it all wrong? Win the toss and elect to field? Hello! EEG please! Don't remember who said it - probably WG Grace - "Win the toss! Think long and short and... BAT FIRST!"
Well, one thing for sure. Bravo was put in place. He was treated basically as a spinner who could throw it at 125 kmph sometimes. That simplified matters for ABDeV and SA. 50 runs in 5 overs is no mean task ;-) (though I have given 44 in one; that was in a masters, six-a-side, wide=4 runs game; hmmmm... those were the days!)
One thing for sure, the atmosphere was much better yesterday with enough WI supporters dancing and making music!
Now for the Can-You-Do-It-Without-Googling Trivia...
(Just to show that there is life outside cricket, however small! No points; Pure quizzing!)
Answer to the previous question: Formerly Hill Street Police Station but now home for MICA - Ministry of Information, Communication and the Arts, National Arts Council, National Heritage Board, Media Development Authority and Singapore Kindness Movement; phew ... a colourful past and present... Sivasubs tells us that it used to be the national archives as well; he should know :-)
Looks like a very easy one. Seven got it. Anand Re, Guru, Ganesh TCS, Muthiah, Polap, Rohit and Sivasubs - all seems to remember the building.
Today's question [Courtesy: Ganesh TCS]:
- Pick the odd one out of the following:
Barracuda, Cougar, Falcon, Impala, Jaguar, Rabbit, Viper
Your answers via normal mode of communication. Keep them rolling in.
Until the next one...
