Happenings

Pakistan managed to draw the Bangalore test, albeit India got very close to achieving a result. The lefties had a ball, with Dada, ....

.... Yuvi ....

.... & Pathan ....

.... all getting past 100.

Saurav in fact managed a double in the 1st innings & a 91 in the second. I couldn't catch the Saurav-Yuvi partnership 'cause of office on Saturday, but everybody who did was praising it to high heaven.

The two took India from 61 for 4 to an awesome 350 plus on the 1st day itself. That, by the way, is the most number of runs scored in a single Test day in India, ever. Good show guys.

Shoaib Akhtar ....

.... was a shadow of himself. Are his glory days a thing of the past? We'll see. India have won a home series against the Pakistanis after 27 years. It would have been better had it been against a stronger Pakistan. Even then, Kumble has made an excellent beginning as Test captain.

Moving on, India has caught up with the U.S. on a grim social phenomenon. We've had our first school shooting fatality.

Moving on again, official pics of the new K.I.T.T. are out & this ....

.... is my current wallpaper.

It's been a tiring week. I just hope I won't have to work this Saturday.

Meanwhile, Strings' Sar Kiye Ye Pahaar (the 1992 original) plays on the T.sonic ...... dariyaaon ki gehraaiyon mein, tujhe dhoonda hai .... wah, wah!
