"Sometimes life can be cruel" maybe this is what South African captain Graeme Smith would be thinking after their shock defeat to India and being knocked out of the Twenty/20 world cup.

I watched the match till late night.What an awesome match that was... This Indian team which is without a coach, star players and an injured Yuvraj Singh knocked out a formidable team and the hosts South Africa..:) Few people including myself would have given this Indian team an outside chance of advancing to the next round forget the semi-finals. Indians @ home and in the audience would have been thrilled to bits.

I have given up watching cricket after the match-fixing scandal and India's poor performance in the world cup. There is a moral in this story. Confidence and self belief is the key whether it's in sports/one's career or personal life.

Chakde India...:)

The downside of watching the match till late in the night was droopy eyes @ work. Thankfully it wasn't as bad as I thought and I managed to survive the day :)

Friday has come to an end. Tomorrow is our team outing @ Cascade resort which is a few metres away from the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore(IIMB). We will be having an event manager who will be co-ordinating activities like team building, indoor games etc.
