WAT A DAY!....:(

I was thinking of going away from sports today, but how do you neglect events of this magnitude and not write about them! Today is the day when Indian cricket got very poor and Timo Glock got very very rich!
Yes Indian cricket has just become very poor and its only going to get poorer in the next few days! Am not talking about the Board of cricket control in India! They aren't going to get poor in the next 100 years atleast!. I am talking about Anil Kumble's retirement! An absolute gem of a cricketer. There isn't anyone in the history of this game who would argue at the fact that he was the best fighter the game has ever seen! I remember times when I have seen India coming down to bowl and feeling 'Anil is in there, so there's always a chance he ll clean them up soon!'. Known for his dignified way of playing the game, Jumbo(as he is often called) got one of the best farewell I have seen any Indian cricketer get! The way he announced the decision was quite the way he has handled his career, i.e in a very simple manner. Simplicity of this cricketer is what got him to where he today is! He could have done what Saurav has done by announcing it early and making a big affair of the whole issue but he chose to go out the more honorable way! Seeing a man play, with a fractured jaw as in Antigua, or with 11 stitches in the left palm like in this match, I can only wonder what level of commitment this guy had promised to what most most people would say 'Just a Game after all'!!!!! His captaincy saw some amazing cricket played at Australia. A victory in Perth was a delight for any Indian cricket fan!
The country's youth will look up to Anil Kumble as an inspiration when it comes to attitude with which this game is played, for sheer determination and dedication, for the thorough gentleman attitude on and off field and most importantly for all those special magical moments which are associated with this great cricketer!

Fine that was the nice part of this post!..Now the part where I might just loose my cool a little. Arguably the most thrilling finish to a race I have seen in a very long time and ending up on the wrong side of it was never a part of the script! Sebastian Vettel had just run the 2 most crucial laps of his career ahead of Hamilton! When they crossed the line I jumped up with joy bringing the roof down at my place forgetting the fact that it was at 12.30 in the night when everyone was deep in sleep! Happiness was short lived though! Happiness had other plans really! She wanted to visit the other section of the crowd too! A drop of tear which was about to trickle down suddenly got confused in emotion! A happy tear that it was to be was turned into one of deep depression! Timo Glock! The man of the hour you can say had done the impossible and had gone a little unnoticed! He slows down his car just before making the last turn and lets Hamilton pass through to the 5th place which gives him the year's Driver's championship! Massa's family celebrated and so did the millions of Ferrari fans around the world without realizing what Glock had done! To watch the videos coming in live at that point was quite a parody of sorts since both Massa's supporters and Hamilton's supporters started rejoicing soon after the race! Later one continued and the other just had to contend with the race victory! A perfect race of sorts for Ferrari team finally looked like a team whose both cars had crashed out!
I wonder if Glock has overtaken Kimi Raikonnen as the most highly paid driver currently. And that payment is for not driving well i.e. And what's the reason he comes out with! Low on fuel load! A team which cant calculate its fuel load properly yet doesn't deserve to be in Formula1 at all! Absolute BS of a reason I would say! Though must admit Glock has played his cards extremely well! I guess he must has got out of his car after the race and dived straight into the next flight out of Brazil! If he stays in Brazil for the next 24hrs and he is bound to get murdered!
A thrilling end to the season none the less and quite a fitting finale to a season which has lacked spunk through out the year! Massa will have his chance next year where I am sure he ll come victorious! Till then all you Mclaren fans can rejoice the moment you have received thanks to a Toyota car's effort after 9 whole years! Remember this is not permanent and next year Ferrari will be back and back with a vengeance!
