Day 6: ABsolutely dWIndied!

Q Part:

Thought that I will start with the quiz today.

Well, the last question was indeed an easier one. A number of people got the Statue of Liberty portion right. But was that the question? Sleep-deprived, my brain is. But memory-less, it isn't. What we wanted was the mailing address and the ever-reliable mail-man (no, not Karl Malone from Utah Jazz) from US Postal Services says that the said lady can be reached via snail mail at the following address:

Statue of Liberty

1 Liberty IS FRNT 1

New York NY

10004-1467

So, only a few of the multitude got it right.

I can accept 10004 but not the Brooklyn code 11231

(Perils of using Google earth and other such contraptions!)

Aditya, AdarshB, Sandeep, Shreyas and Siva* got the full point. 

Now for today's quiz - a tough one (courtesy: BSNL Sports Quiz on Doordarshan recently - they also give some very good programmes!)

Drumrolls pleazzzz...

What is common between all these cricketers?  OR 

What is the special cricketing achievement that they share?

Just in case you are wondering who the fourth guy is... Hashan Tillakaratne.

*******

Well, there was a pseudo-Lara during the Windies innings in the form of Darren Bravo; he was good on the eyes; but once the Tahir-boy (or the old man; he is after all 30+) got going, matter was over!

ABdV was sensational.as usual. After all, he was playing at his home ground (Delhi Daredevils, you see!)

Gayle was easy on the eyes while bowling and Benn was looking like he would fight with Sammy any time. And what was Kieron Pollard doing, batting at 9? Remember SRT keeping him till late in last year's IPL. And we are told that we should learn from the past mistakes. Hayyaah!

B Part:

The B portion had a bumper crop. 13 people got in. Raghavendra even tried to hedge. Good approach.

A few new entrants. All are welcome to make merry.

Tomorrow there are two games. Please send in your entries asap. Note the timings.

Australia v New Zealand by 11:25 hours SGT Friday

Trans-tasman rivalry and QF aspirants clash...

Answers and guesses to the usual place. (The usual place is my email address, which you can find in the Day 0 post!) 

There is the Weekend Dhamaka of SL v PAK and IND v ENG coming up. Sharpen your voices, folks!
