After a gap of almost a year here i am to blog again. Thou, I always wanted to continue the blogging, the mother of all obstacles, laziness, always had a great control on me. Even now I am not sure whether I have overcome the obstacle, but certainly have bypassed it at this point of time. I don’t want to write any articles straight away, so decided to write about the weekend
activity.
Our company has organized for a cricket tournament between the fellow mates, we 9 people formed a team and nominated for it. Ravi captained the team and Vijay was treated as a coach. I enjoyed the small role of tail ender. Most of us were keen on the tournament for one reason, free food. I had too much of expectation on the food, because the last time, when there was a get together, the food was great. I certainly don’t want to miss a good Indian food in Sydney. Vijay, Subhani and Ravi were too keen on the tournament. Vijay was so involved, that he woke up at 6AM in the morning, the one thing, which you can’t expect to see from Vijay.
We were in the spot at 5 to 9, but we were the only one who were there. Around 9:30, the organizers came, pls note that the match should start at 9, only to let us know that we need to find a good ground (park) nearby to play. J It took us around 10 to find the ground. The other teams arrived at 10:30 and the ball arrived at 11AM. J meanwhile, Vijay and Ravi, spoke to the organizers and made sure that we are not playing in the best team in the first match.
First match was good, were we scored 85 and won by 22 runs. Thanks to Rajesh, for making the match interesting by bowling 6 wides, free hit, many runs and finally a invalid over. Some how we won it and went to Semi’s. It party time. Yes we went to have snacks, but it was already finished by Sajjad, Rajjev, Ramya and Priya. J so the kids and other never had a taste of it.
While the other teams were playing, some football players game to push us away. Only then we realised that it is a pay and use ground. Then many roamed around to search grounds, while myself and others waited patiently not for ground but for food. Food did arrived at 1:30PM, but for a greater disappointment. Because the variety and quality for bad.
Then went on to play the semi’s against the team, to whom we should have played the first match. We batted first to score just 49. But our bowling and fielding was tight so we made it tough for them to chase. Last over 12 runs to score. Subhani bowled it. fist 5 balls went for 6. So last ball 6 to win, he bowled a wide. Then went on to bowl a full toss and it went high in the air and rajesh caught it in deep, but the clash and fight happened there, where the opposite team claimed it to be a six, but we claimed it as a out. Flight was vigorous were no one was there for solution.
Finally we decided to pull out, only bos we were in no mood to play the next match, finals J this is mainly because we came for food and we had it. while leaving we went on to crab the champing bottles, which was supposed to be given to winners J
Whatever it is, I enjoyed the day to the max I can. With lot of fight, food, tease etc... Follow @aAnguraj
