THE NEW ZEALAND CONUNDRUM

INDIA'S TOUR TO NEW ZEALAND "When an International team depends on its No.8, who is neither a match winning bowler nor an aggressive batter who can set the scene on fire, the setup is destined to fail" This was the most anticipated series with India riding high on a 5-0 series sweep against the Blackcaps. Little did they know that they would be decimated by a thoroughly professional serious bunch of cricketers. Here are some of my thoughts on why the Indian team failed to click in the ODIs: 1) The opening puzzle : India's approach wore a bemused look when they finalised their openers for the ODIs. Opening is a tough task and that too in the overseas conditions like that of New Zealand. The young guns were lucky as the wickets served on platter were not the typical swinging pitches of yore.

Aruna in Vienna.....My thoughts.....

Aruna in Vienna Travelogue writers are a rare entity in the literary world and women writers are still rarer and this author with that humorous tinge is a very rarest of its kind. Like most travelogues, this book features the author's whimsical journey traversing through the boders of the erstwhile Czechoslovakia and Austria. European countries always have this aura of gothic style and totuous traceries.

The first chapter itself gives an insight of what is coming to come. The comic start to Hungary and the author's funny experiences at the a...
