Zimbabwe Vs Ireland – A wild last over

March 17th, 2007

So, we all know that the ICC Cricket World Cup game between Zimbabwe & Ireland was tied and perhaps nothing much beyond it. Ireland was making its world cup debut and Zimbabwe … well I wonder why they are still paying International cricket, they need to sort their house in order first

Anyways, the purpose of the post is to showcase the fantastic final over of the match (AR White of Ireland bowling to Matsikinyeri and Rainsford of Zimbabwe). This had it all to make a classic climax … 2 dropped catches, 1 missed run out and the stupidest of slog and miss on the last ball. You should see the reaction of the crowds and the pavilion, so what if it is a game between the minnows, Cricket still keeps you all glued in

Kudos to Ireland, hope they can upset Pakistan today ;-) . Happy St Patrick’s day folks … help us celebrate with you by beating the Pakis

Gibbs smacks 6 Sixers in an over

March 17th, 2007

The ICC Cricket World Cup got well and truly underway yesterday with the game between South Africa and Netherlands. The highlight of course was Herschelle Gibbs world record 6 consecutive sixes in an over against the bowling of Van Bunge

Check the video out here

Here’s another Video of this effort and a Photo gallery here

The feat has been achieved for the first time in One day internationals. Gary Sobers and Ravi Shastri have ofcourse done this earlier in first class matches. To close out with a bit of trivia, 36 is NOT the record the highest number of runs in an over, quite astonishingly the number is 77. Read more about this bizarre over here

Skype Prime – The new global marketplace for phone based services ?

March 11th, 2007

In case you have not heard of Skype Prime yet, it is a service which lets people accept calls and charge the caller either a fixed rate or on a per minute basis. This simple feature, in my mind opens up a huge array of possibilities for Skype and for all manner & purpose could create the next big services marketplace (eBay, the owner of Skype is ofcourse the world’s largest marketplace for products)

So, if you are an expert with time on your hands and want to make money, put your services up for hire on Skype Prime
