Issue with CoRa/CoLA aliases: We are having some technical issues with the CoLA and CoRA mails. If you intend to send mails to the volunteer communities, please send it to webmaster; they would be routed to the concerned parties until the issue is fixed.
Every step we take in life is meant to lead us to some final destination. Every choice or decision we make is to take us to an a better tomorrow. And in Cricbay what better tomorrow can it be than winning some silverware. Cricbay's regular season is at one such stage again, where one wrong move and it could be the end for yet another diasppointing season. I say 'disappointing' since the ultimate goal of every team is that elusive Platinum cup.
The on-going tri-series in Sri-Lanka reminds me so much of what we see in Cricbay week after week. You're on top 1 weekend and come crashing down to ground the next. The ball dominates the bat, but you get an occasional Sehwag who makes you question what is all the fuss about. In Cricbay, we often see teams struggling to score against some tight bowling and then on occasions we see someone come along and score with such ease that he makes the same bowlers look like amatures. The game between Wisden and Chargers was a prime example of the uncertainties I'm talking about.
I was not big on any of these injury preventive steps, until I got my first major injury playing a practice (!) game against Daredevils 5 weeks ago! So, now my team is competing in Platinum, and I am sitting at home watching Yuva teammates bulldozing some of the best teams in Cricbay. :-)
Yes, you. All of you. Please inform your wives, wife to be, Girl friends, girl friend to be(?), roommates, boyfriends et al that youve a game on October 3, 2010. Block those 3 to 4 hours as you would do every weekend. Please be there for the finals.
Some of you may find the title a bit audacious however as Amit pointed in his comment in response to CricBox 21/22 this was a clash between two strong teams that missed the Platinum/Gold berth (Blame it on Group-D :-)). The match & Wisden somehow also missed the attention from Krishnan in his CricBox 21-22 article (May be we should write 'Stars & Superstars of Wisden.......Just Kidding)
Want to Cancel the Match on Rainy Weekend? The match can ONLY be cancelled or rescheduled, on a rainy day or it has rained heavily through out the week, if both the captains and umpires have touched based with each other and have agreed for the cancellation and reschedule. Otherwise, the rules regarding match start time, ground preparation and team formation discussed in the Game Rules Document still applies in the case both captains and umpire could not contact each other on the match day or decide to play the match on the same day after discussing this early morning on the match day.
