South African batsman - most likely Indian coach

Published by Mohit under Sports

A most unexpected and tricky coach selection by Selection Committee comprising of Sunil Gavaskar, Ravi Shastri and also BCCI secretary Niranjan Shah in New Delhi on Monday. Most probably, Gary Kirsten, a talented South African batsman, will be the successor of Greg Chappell as a Indian Cricket coach.

The 40-year-old left-handed batsman enjoyed a great playing career, playing in 101 Tests and 185 one-day internationals, before retiring in 2004. No doubts, he is one of the most talented consistent stout batsman but limited experience as a coach.

Published by Veresh under Bangalore, Tech

Burrp has released a widget which allows to embed the burrp search functionality in blog making one to boast of some cool features in there blog. What that means ? Visitors to your site can search for Pizza in Bangalore from your blog and see the results in your blog .

Burrp has rich database for restaurants reviews which can be leveraged in blog by using search widget . Following functionality are there is the widget which I think is useful :

  • Auto completion for the areas in the city so for Bangalore Widget (which is running here) if people type in K then they get suggestion for the locality starting with K in the type box.
  • Showing the search result in the widget which has phone number of the place , rating and cost of the meal.
  • Ability to send the address of the restaurant from the search result as SMS without leaving the blog.

For me down side of the widget is that it is not a wordpress widget in the true sense and require some plumbing but considering this is first version we can expect improvements in future versions.

Try it out here , remember you can search only in Bangalore :

champion vs champion - Federer Vs Sampras

Published by Mohit under Sports

Two great players in Tennis - one holding 14 Grand Slams and other with 12. One retired back in 2002 and other is at highest peak of his career. One holding the record of 14 Grand Slam titles and other moving towards it at pace. Pete Sampras and Roger Federer - without doubt two of the greatest tennis players the world has ever seen.

Last week, they met each other in three exhibition matches across Asia.  Federer, being at peak of his career, took Sampras in straight sets for first game at Seoul. Next match at Kuala Lumpur was the tough one with Sampras showing some reluctance but Federer again edge the Sampras. Third and the last one at Macau, was the most interesting one with Sampras shocked Federer in straight sets.

US legend proved that age is no bar for any person. But no doubt, both are the great players, one had ruled the game in 90s and other is ruling the game at present.

India Vs Pakistan Test Match

Published by Mohit under Sports

As depicted in ongoing first test match at Feroz Shah Kotla, Delhi, this test series will be one of the most exciting series in a cricket events. Where in India, first time under Kumble guidance, wants to keep up with their One day winning trend. Other hand, Pakistan will try to take back home some victorious taste.

Till now, this 1st test match is behaving like a pendulum. Neither of the teams is able to maintain a upper hand. India started well this morning with Laxman and Kumble trying to make partnership & enhance the India’s 1st inning lead. But suddenly, after Kumble dismissal, tail was wrapped up within 15 runs keeping 45 runs lead for the 1st inning.

Pakistan fought back and opener Salman Butt gave solid foundation to Pakistan with its contribution of 67runs having 1st wicket partnership of 71runs with Yasir Hameed. As Pakistan was building their innings, India bowlers strike again and break the top order batting line in quick succession. Spinners Harbhajan and Kumble share 5 top wicket between them.

Another twist towards end of the day, when Kamran Akmal and Misbah Ul-Haq show some reluctance and stand for 51 runs partnership.

This game is open for both the teams and tomorrow 4th day will be crucial for this match and series.
