ICC Champions Trophy : Battle of the Champions

ICC Champions TrophyWith the huge success of T20 over the last 3 years, 50 overs one day match format has come under scrutiny. I would like to go back to 1971, when One day cricket was born. With the shorter form of Cricket gaining popularity in next 3-4 years, the Cricket Pandits talked of Test match format coming to end. But as the time passed we have seen that test cricket has produced many of the finest players of the game and the whole world has realized that every form of the cricket has its own imporance. After 38 years, there are talks after the great success of T20 formula that now no one will enjoy the 50 overs cricket. However, again it that has been proven wrong and with the success of Indian Cricket team over the last one and half years in one day matches, every one is enjoying the game.

Sonia GandhiIndian National Congress is in News because of its much hyped Austerity Campaign. In this campaign, UPA Government has asked its Members of parliament and union ministers to travel in Economy class instead of usual Business Class and Chartered Planes and also not to stay in five star Hotels.

Who are the real World Heroes?

HeroesToday I am going to ask one simple question. Who are the real World Heroes? Heroes are a breed apart. They defy the given. They challenge the equilibrium. They subvert the paradigm. If you feel that “Success comes with experience” then see the example of Sachin Tendulkar. He became one of the top batsmen of world cricket when his age was only 17. Many industry experts say that “Only those with family money ever become rich”. But we have examples of Dhirubhai Ambani, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs etc who became richest, they neither had any business background nor support of family money. One more myth is there that “People should retire at 60”. Take the case of Amitabh Bachchan. He became the youth icon at the age of 60. Now he is 65 and still he is highest paid film actor in Hindi Film Industry. Our experience parents always say “To go places in the corporate world first get an education, get MBA degree”

Would you like to eat Kareena pizza?

Kareena KapoorHot and sexy Kareena Kapoor is more known for her size-zero figure than anything else. Our Indian girls have already idolized Bebo (nickname of Kareena) and are aspiring for Kareena type figure but it seems that corporate world is also mesmerized, as an International pizza chain has recently minted its new pizza as size zero pizza inspired by none other than our ravishing Bebo. This cheesy pizza will have a delicious thin crust but will not contain high calories thats why it is named as size zero pizza. Although she doesn’t have that size-zero figure anymore due to the requirement of her curves for her new film but she is more than happy to hear this news and said “I’m flattered that a pizza has been named after me.” She was out of country when this announcement was made and got to know this only by her sister Karishma Kapoor.
