My Quick Take on the Shorter Breaks Thing So yeah, this whole ODI innings break timing thing got me scratching my head lately. Felt like players were scrambling back faster after seeing a few recent matches. Decided to actually check instead of just guessing. Step 1: Grabbed my trusty old stopwatch app. Seriously low-tech, but…
Alright, so today I finally got around to cracking open that ECS T10 Portugal highlight reel everyone’s been buzzing about. Wanted to see if the hype around their big hitters meeting up with those visiting stars was real. Grabbed my laptop, made a huge mug of coffee – the strong stuff – and settled in….
So, today I figured I’d put together an IPL dangerous batsmen ranking since the season’s hype is crazy. Woke up, scratched my head, and thought, “How the hell do you even measure ‘dangerous’?” Runs? Strike rate? Or just that vibe when they walk in and bowlers crap their pants? My Messy Starting Point First, I…
That day I was super frustrated. I kept losing in the game, getting taken out by the enemy the moment I entered the third round. Sitting at my computer, boiling with rage, I started scrolling through YouTube, hoping to find some “pro tips” to learn. Then I spotted a video with an eye-catching thumbnail that…
Today I wasn’t planning on getting any real work done, just browsing aimlessly online. Then I accidentally clicked on a video compilation of hilarious cricket bloopers. I only meant to watch a few seconds, but ended up binge-watching for nearly an hour. In one clip, a player scrambles desperately after the ball only to take…
Yesterday I was really eager to watch the live stream of the 2023 ECS Portugal T10 Championship. You know T10? It’s that type of cricket match with only 10 overs per innings—super fast-paced, with something happening every minute. I love that intense feeling. But I had absolutely no idea where to watch it. It wasn’t…
The other night, I suddenly wanted to see which teams were participating in the 2022 ECS Krefeld T10 tournament. Not for writing news, not for organizing a match—just out of curiosity. I also wanted to use this info to play “Fantasy Cricket” and guess who’d win. I figured a quick online search would take 30…
Last month, our club’s cricket field was in terrible shape. The ground was riddled with pits and wheel ruts—you could easily trip walking on it. The coach shook his head and said, “This surface won’t do. We need to roll it.” Then he pointed to the tool shed and added, “Pick a roller yourself.” At…
Last October, I finally carved out time to visit two places I’d long wanted to see: Nainital and Dehradun. You might have heard these two names mentioned together often, as if visiting one requires visiting the other. I’d always wondered what exactly set them apart. Only after experiencing them firsthand did I truly understand. Departing…
Last year, I wanted to watch a cricket match called the “2022 Krefeld ECS T10.” It was held in Germany, and the name sounded pretty professional. T10 is a super fast-paced format—each innings lasts only 10 overs, so games wrap up quickly, sometimes in just minutes. I’d seen a few matches before, and they were…
