Now let's enjoy some Cricket
Now that India is well, almost out (and Woolmer's murder makes it difficult for a possible match-fixing syndicate to pay Bangladesh to lose) we can finally get to watch some real cricket featuring real cricket teams, real cricket players, and some real analysts and commentators.
Goodbye Mandira Bedi. Goodbye Charu Sharma. Goodbye 'Ritambara'. Goodbye terrible motorcycle adverts. Goodbye idiot journalists.
Update: India is out, so we can start looking at other debates rightaway.

7:26 pm, March 25, 2007Terrible motorcycle ads?
What I found to be terrible were the 'Go India' type ads, especially the Pepsi one.
But honestly, the motorcycle ads were all cool, I thought. Apache's 'cheetah' one was great, but the more recent ad for the Bajaj Kristal was brilliant! HAHA, never thought a scooter could be given a masculine image, but what Bajaj couldn't even manage with the Pulsar (no, it's not definitely male), they have managed with that great ad for a little scooter.
Keep it up Indian ad makers, you are our finest artists!
