Worth the Warne!

Finally, a game worth the late night! (No KXIP v CSK super over does not count :-|)

The heart was literally doing the mobius ring trick throughout. Support DC so that they can also queer the semis pitch a bit more; Support RR on seeing Warnie exhorting his wards to give it one more shot! Pheeewwww!

Dhoni is definitely a very keen reader of the game. At the toss in that run-rain match on Saturday, he answered an inane question from the commentator about how that game is being touted as the captaincy war between Dhoni and Warne. He neatly sidestepped the question and commended Warne for helping Indian cricket and supporting youth and fringe players etc. (Is one Mr Gambhir listening?)

Look at Warne's team yesterday: Except for Shane Watson & Mornie Morkel there are no players - including Yusuf Pathan - who would have walked into any team in the world (Warne might still be welcomed with open arms into the Ozzie dressing room; but that is a different story!)

And they kept coming back with that message "RR have not lost if they have to defend anything above 150".

SELF BELIEF!!

In the other games, Mahela played a blinder - vaguely remember that he did the same recently in one of those umpteen Ind-SL ODI series.

RCB is taking it easy and it might become a Royal Challenge if they are not careful. Drop Dravid!

Michael Lumb joins David Warner for being recalled almost from the shower after the fielders claimed desperate catches only for the third umpire to revoke such claims. If there ever was a 50-50 game, Ryan Harris had one yesterday (2 catches; 2 drops; 1 wicket; 1 dreadful search for that floating legbreak from the Master - tells you a story, isn't it?)

Answer to BQ-10:

The immediate-fail-driving-test-route is Lombard Street in San Francisco.

Guru and Siva* got it right. Good show guys.

After ten questions, Guru leads the pack - here also! with four points; Siva* and Subra are following closely at three each.

Now for BQ-11:

Easy one.

In an examination where 50000 students appeared for, 3000 students passed. The local newspaper published the registered numbers of those who passed over three pages. How many pages would the newspaper editor have allocated for publication of the results if 48000 students have passed?

Keep them coming.
