Was watching the England-India second test and felt really sad seeing Sachin struggle while Sidhu set my ganglions all a jangling. His mixed metaphors may have sounded cute in the beginning, but now they are are just plain ugly and irritating.
But overall it was Sachin's state that moved me. He is, or was till the other day, a master craftsman and committed to doing his best every single time he stepped out (he still is ferociously committed today too). We have succeeded in forcing him further into the mire of medicority with the enormous weight of our expectations. Its obvious to even a non-cricket fanatic like me that his impatience scripted his end at Trent's Bridge just as it did at Lord's.
One can literally see the poor chap's frustration at not being able to fulfill his desire to score big, (and he's not thinking of chicks).
Anybody who can help the poor sod suss out his hassles will be doing all of us a huge favour especially if he has managed to have the Garrulous Surd yanked out of our ears' range.

Starting Webexperiment # 4. Here's hoping that this lasts longer and has a bigger reach than # 1 & # 2 (No: 3 underway currently). Here's to the Ramans who are going online.
