20 ways how the Indian cricket team can retain their pride
The Indian cricket team is going through a bad phase. It's been 4 month's we haven't won a series abroad. Here are 20 ways how the Indian cricket can retain their pride.
1) Replace the Indian cricket team with the Indian Hockey team in the name of Rotation Policy. Atleast the Hockey team knows where to hit the ball.
2) Tell Sachin Tendulkar to play hockey. He can score 100 goals faster than his 100th 100.
3) Replace Cricket bats with Hockey sticks and tell the players to use them as a weapon if the umpires give wrong decisions. #UDRS #MankadRunOut #StoppingTheBallDuringRun-Out
4) Make a movie on Cricket with SRK as the coach.
5) Tell hockey players to try the Helicopter shot, this way they will never score goals and Cricket will prevail.
6) Tell Sharad Pawar to become the president of the Indian Hockey Team and invite hockey players to auction for the IPL matches. #IfYouCan'tWinAgainstThemSimpleBuyThem
7) Tell Bajaj Discover to sponsor the Indian team as against Hero sponsoring the Hockey team. Because every time the Hockey team wins the cricket team can say 'Chalta Hai'.
8) Cricket team should go on a break of 1-2 months saying they are suffering from weird diseases. This way they will still trend and get sympathies from their fans (with photo shares of Facebook. 1 like if you want to pray once and 1 share if you want to pray twice :\)
9) Don't blame the coach, blame your fellow seniors and juniors for appearing on more advertisements, in order to get free publicity and more ads.
10) Tell MSD to fight, beat, abuse and argue with everyone, especially when they are in a state of losing. This way he can get banned and blame Shewag for losing the rest of the matches.
11) Tell the Hockey team, that the cricket team is talented. We have Harbhajan Singh hosting Ring ka King and Sreesanth who can host Dance India Dance.
12) Tell Virat Kohli to audition for Roadies. His middle fingers and bad attitude can be of good use for the show.
13) Ask if the football or hockey team if they need Ravindra Jadeja for free.
14) Tell Parthiv Patel to give his 12th std exam, he is not going to get a chance till Dhoni retires.
15) Ask Irfan Pathan to be sure if he wants to be a bowler/batsmen or a model.
16) Ask Srikant to speak in Marathi during team selection to get support from MNS or Shiv Sena. #IfAustraliaWinsWeWillBurnMumbai #NoOtherTeamShouldWinInIndia
17) Make Vinod Kambli the captain for Indian cricket team. Your mom, sister and bhabhi will watch cricket as a daily soap filled rona dhona drama every match
18) Tell Ganguly to remove his t-shirt in the commentary box and wave it in the air. This way once the opponents wins the match against Indian cricket team, will repeat the act and be banned for insulting the game. This way we can definitely try winning the next match.
19) Make Greg Chapel the coach of the Indian Hockey team.
20) Last but not the least, invite the Indian Hockey team to IPL after parties and click sleazy pictures with cheerleader and make them infamous.
Hope you liked the blog. If you have any more lines to add up here please be free to suggest. Thank you.

Balls to you
Here I'm blogging for the first time after being repeatedly tortured by my folks by saying, "Eeh copywriter aadh, blog barepujana" (In tulu which means, why don't you write blog being a copyriter). Like if it will make to difference to anyone in this world. The reason why I never wanted to blog was that my friends always thought I was a creative and a good copywriter and I wanted them to stay in that assumption. Honestly, I'm a lazy writer who finds rechecking content a little to lame to do. But that doesn't mean I want my friends to think I'm a dyslexic copywriter.
Well now that I'm here and ready to write, I shall write about something that interest me and that is CRICKET. I'm sure half a dozen of people are on the verge of saying goodbye right now. Just in case you guys plan to read my entire blog, and reply back with comments (positive or negative), I shall promise to follow you on Twitter. Good, now that I have your attention, my first blog is about cricket. It's called 'Balls to you'. In this blog I intend to cover few of the best wicket taking balls bowled in International cricket. You can beg to differ and always reply back.
First in the list is;
Courtney Walsh: Remember the tall, dark and well I don't want my blog to be tagged racist. So, lets just keep it the Boggeyman, who charged himself towards the batsmen at a height of 6'5 and above and bowled bouncers at the poor batsmen. He plays an important role behind the ICC's decision to have stadium lights during a day and night match. Not many remember his bowling, but here is a glimpse of his best bowling. (5 wickets for 1 run).
Courtney Walsh was the most ferocious bowlers of his times. The bowling combination of Curtly Ambrose and Walsh falls back as one of the best bowling attacks in the history of cricket. Courtney Walsh started his bowling attack with a ball a little widish off stump. The ball was nicked by Duleep Mendis and carried straight to the keeper Dujon. His next victim was ALF de Mel. An in-swinging fuller length ball missed by de Mel, hit the off stump getting Sri-Lanka to a score of 7-51. Walsh was not done. His next target was JR Ratnayeke. A straighter good length ball to the left-hander, sweeping off the leg stump on its way to the keeper. The best however, was still to come. Walsh's next victim was RJ Ratnayeke. The delivery was a storming yorker. It not only hit the leg stump but also pushed it away to a good 4 feet high and 4 feet long. If Navjot Singh Sidhu would have been there commentating, he would surely say, 'thats ball lifted the air-hostesses skirt a little and came back down'. Labrooy was the last man in and the last man out. Labrooy knew what was coming for him. Trying to play defensive, Labrooy was the 4th victim to get bowled by the ferocious Walsh. #BallsToYouTail-ender

Dale Styn: Remember Dale? Yes Yes the same guy who was the world's best ODI bowler till he was chosen for IPL in the RCB team. He was around worth 5 crores and also one of the reasons why your Kingfisher Airlines lost 5 crores and is currently in the state of bankruptcy.
Here is one of his best bowling clips, where he bowls a blinder of a delivery to the West Indian batsman Smith. Dale bowls a quicker yorker length reverse swing deliver straight to the middle stump, knocking out everything on the way, which was also followed by a calm celebration. Difficult to see that kind of a celebration from a South African or an Aussie. He also bowled a similar bowl to Eoin Morgan. Never the less an awesome piece of bowling. #BallsToYouRCB

Shane Warne: Remember Shane Warne? Oh yes! Well how could somebody possibly forget a man who got popular with his bowling then sex tapes with 2 top models and then gets Liz Hurley on a sale with kids. Genius is the word. Mind you , he did ball some fantastic balls before he got his hands on the other softer ones. Surprisingly he is still haunted by Sachin Tendulkar's batting. Well here is a piece of his bowling which is hard to believe. This is what a spinner can do. The match was between England and the Aussies. Andrew Strauss misjudged the power of the mighty hands of Shane Warne. Shanny bowled a beauty of a delivery in the off side of Andrew. The batsmen decides to pad the bowl away and to his surprise the ball spun the other way round, surprising everyone who saw that wicket. Absolutely Brilliant! #BallsToEveryoneWhoWantsMine

Venkatesh Prasad: Remember him? Well he is currently the Chennai Super Kings bowling coach and what a fine job is he doing. A tall, simple and calm bowler from Karnataka, who was never involved in any controversies in his life (that's why was never popular). He appeared as this school kid who could be bullied any day and at the end of the day would go home and cry in his mother's pallu. Well, calm and composed he always appeared till the incident he had with Aamir Sohail. One of the best examples of 'Balls to You' attitude. Aamir Sohail in his top form, was thrashing the Indian bowlers all over the park. Venkatesh Prasad was given the ball in spite of going expensive in his previous overs. Aamir Sohail charges up and smashes Prasad for another boundary, this time pointing at him and saying, 'that's where all your balls are going to be thrashed'. May be that's the only kind of motivation he needed. Prasad bowls an in-swinger in the good length area, Aamir Sohail misses the ball and the off side timber is disturbed. After that all said and done Prasad finally shows some aggression. By the way, he was banned for a match after. I'm sure he doesn't regret that at all. #BallsToYouAamir

Muttiah Muralitharan: Remember him? Yes the same guy who gave chills to the batsmen with his facial expressions before bowling his doosras. His expressions so scary, that mother's in Sri-Lanka flashed his photo to their kids if they didn't sleep early. His bowling was equally scary. With 800 wickets in test cricket, Murali surely is undoubtedly the world's best bowler. Initially tagged chucker by the Australian Cricket board, Murali now teaches bowling at the MRF academy in Australia. #BallsToYouAussies.
Here is an example of his doosra, a new kind of spin, innovated by him. A beauty of a ball to get 2 South African wicket in 2 balls. The first one much straighter and grabbing an amazing catch and the second taking the batsmen by surprise and gets him out leg before.

Wasim Akram: Remember Wasim Akram? Yes the same guy who is now a cricket expert for the Indian cricket team. Undoubtedly was a part of the best bowling combination in the 90's along with Waqar Younis and Saqlain Mushtaq. Akram was known for his reverse swing and slower deliveries. A very useful contributor with the bat as well. In fact he can be called as the best all rounder Pakistan ever had.
In this match Wasim Akram surprised the West Indies batsmen Sherwin Campbell with a fantastic slower ball. Bowling a straighter and a slower one, Sherwin could not read it and fell for a blinder. #BallToYouFastBowlers

Brett Lee: Do I need to ask people remember Lee? He is an Indian with a Chinese name and stays in Australia. Why do I stay he is an Indian? That's because he gets his publicity done only in India. Look at it this way, an album with Asha Bhosle, an episode with Simi Garewal, an event playing guitar at Inorbit Mall, Mumbai and more. This speedster however has surely made cricket a watchable game with women around. Lee was the 1st bowler to hit a bowling speed of 100miles/hr. Here is one example where he hit 99.5miles/hr speed at the World Cup. The man who faced this delivery played his last World cup. The consistently slow and steady captain of Sri-Lankan cricket team Marvan Atapattu. Lee bowled a superb yorker length ball to rip apart the off stump. #BallToYourConsistencyMarvan

Well here I come to the end of my first blog. I could have included a few more bowlers like Shoib Aktar, Andrew Flintoff and more, but its difficult to match these deliveries.
So, comment, share and publicity (free of charge) are welcome. These are my all time best deliveries, feel free to share yours. And hope to hear from you all.
