A grand total of 13 spinning overs contributed to the South African misery. Yet another tournament. Yet another early exit. Yet another Choker tag. They are considering renaming their country as 'Choke Africa'.
Having said that, India is in the usual territory. I am reminded of those meaningless triangular/quadrangular tournaments where we used to do all kinds of calculations to see how India can sneak through to the semis or finals or whatever. Just tells one that life does not change much, IPL or not!! And something tells me that Dhoni again will persist on Jadeja and gift even the 'consolation' win away to Sri Lanka. Heart not in it, perhaps?
Is there a connection between the UK hung parliament and England's resurrection on the field? Or is it because KP has become a father? Never know.
Answer to BQ-4:
Green, of course. A number of you got it right. Somebody even said that the fourth clue is redundant. But I like Subra's succint reply - apart from the fact that he took a long time to explain how he his love for puzzles started - for another post!
To the right of the green bowl is the banana. Therefore the green bowl does not contain bananas
To the right of the star-fruit is the green bowl. Therefore the gree bowl does not contain star-fruit
THEREFORE THE GREEN BOWL MUST CONTAIN THE ORANGE!!!
Anand Re, Bob, Ganesh, Guru, Ishan, Maanasa, Siva*, Subra and Sukanti got the answer right. Good show, fellas!
Now to BQ-5:
What is the value of x?
Be good and you know what to do.
