I and Y

There is a great sense of irony in the names of people who run the two cricket leagues in India.

While IPL has been consummated, mid-wived, delivered and nurtured all by Lalit MODI, its lesser known step-brother ICL has a Himanshu MODY to take care for. Modi and Mody - I and Y.

While IPL has been busy giving logistical lessons to FIFA, helping South Africans to go to school and lest we forget, boosting the South African economy by 3 million Rands, ICL has plummeted to spiralling rounds of self introspection catalyzed by the latest ICL tournament's cancellation and the impending mass exodus of players following BCCI's amnesty.

It is only ironical that while Modi seems to suffer from capital I disease, Mody is left asking: Y is all this happening to me?

Bliss

Consider these factors:

- Being up all through the night
- Sitting on the 4th floor terrace
- A good breeze blowing
- Being with the 8 best friends of yours who you have spent the best part of your last 5 years
- Sharing a bottle of scotch
- Hogging the last leftovers of grub that you have in your wing
AND
- Doing all the senti talk like you have never done before
- Inventing theories on the existence of your being

With the knowledge that you have an end sem to write within the next 24 hrs.


Nothing but sheer bliss!!

Cricket Trivia

Tells quite a bit about our priorities.
