People Web International

I was just hoping all of you to recall my earlier article, where I had specially mentioned about my marvelous experience of the 1983 World Cup which India had won. Today, after 28 years, it gives me immense happiness to share the 2011 World Cup, which the Indian cricket team has got for its country, yet it was again a festival time for me and my fellow mates, to celebrate this unique moment with utter most respect and excitement. What a feeling…..

The last two months were a time, where every individual was breathing cricket. All the offices, restaurants, clubs and homes were busy with the “Star Sports” channel, and to top up my statement every hotelier has really minted a good amount of money on booze and food. They displayed a giant LCD which attracted the crowd to just chill and enjoy the matches. The most breathe taking match was the match between India and Pakistan, Oh! It was kind of a sport war between these two countries and the Indian win was a party night for the small, big and the old. I have a great regret for the people who lost their life, during the world cup matches. The cause was due to rash driving and negligence to reach home early. My suggestion to all is ‘respect your life”, be a sport freak, but not at the cost of your life.

Life goes on, time heals all the scars and wounds, and saying this I wanted to update you’ll on the IPL cricket season which has just begun. It has again spread the cricket virus among the big and small. The summer vacation has begun for the school children, and they have a quality time to dedicate for the ongoing matches.

 I wish I could get my childhood again.
