Player Of The Week

     Cricket fever is on and for the die hard fans the player who is shining on the scorecards around the world is here for you.

Last week of Nov 2012

FaF Du Plesis

             what if you tops in class, school refuse to upgrade you with a reason that there no vacancy....
and again you tops in class with late promotion ...school takes same stand...
most of human give up with blame that "faltu system hai" but some persistent bugs don't listen and work assiduously to leave mark on every stage...
with our debut article for column "player of week "..we here take a privileg
e to exalt a debutant in test cricket ....from a land of waka waka dance mr.Francois "Faf" du Plessis aka faf

              born on 13 July 1984 in South Africa. In first class cricket , he plays along with talented AB de villiers. playing in county cricket for Lancashire club for two years and earned respect in English media as emerging player and famous for electric fielding .he joined Chennai super kings, and an injury to mike hussey created opportunity for faf to make debut in ipl and won Indian hearts and attracted attention with average of 33.00 for 13 matches .

               and yet another injury this time to J P Duminy created path for FAF to debut in Test cricket .... and once again he nailed opportunity by scoring 78 in 159 balls ..   but second inning he entered field in adverse condition with south Africa at 44/5 and south Africa had to play entire day and a half for saving match and glorious 1st in test cricket ...
               Australia showing fierce and habitual vigorous attack...
and his marathon inning of 110 n.o in 376 balls and standing for 466 min with steady and calm head...
              If 15 year flamboyant kid read it ,he will definitely stamps as boring inning ...
but anyone fan of test cricket ..would respect him for act of courage and character ....
that test also got performance from peter siddle and also from AB de villiers( 33 from balls without "boundary") and class act managed from Jacques Kallis even in injury...
but man of match was honored to duplessis for his total 188 in match and for resilient performance in 2nd inning ...
                And with current news from latest match between aussies and proties (last match of series) he scored 78 n.o(142 balls) in whole team's performance of 225 all out in first inning ....
kudos FAF and we expect more such brilliance...!!!!


1st week of Dec




“It's unfortunate for Vaughan to be injured but a great opportunity for me and I will make the most of it.” Alastair Cook quote


Aastair Cook might not have speculated that faith in statement quoted in 2005 ,will bring him from a starting 
as cover to injured M. Vaughan to a landmark in career as becoming youngest player to score 7000 runs in test cricket.If it is not right time to accolade A.Cook ,then there must be insufficiency in judgment.
Many tags will be attached him in recent as captain leading from front or calm head.
Not only his natural talent and hunger for runs brought him in glamor but his continuous volition toward gradual improvement for an example as overcoming his natural inclination of putting his foot down the line of the delivery before it turns .scoring at an average of 127.66 for 36 hours during ashes 2011 seirs brought him in limelight.
focusing on current series, he is top of leading scorer table by hitting 548 runs at an average 109.6 in three matches.whole famous Indian batting arsenal struggled to score at eden garden, cook was as smoothly as he was playing against football.and Indian bowling might have dropped hope to plan a futile strategy against him for upcoming matches.
Cook is complete test player with water tight techniques .this can be substantiated by his superb records of his runs and his record of hitting only 9 sixes in whole test career and out of them 6 are from last summer.
another glorifying event attached his profile as becoming 1st Englishman to score 23 centuries in Test cricket.
his bizarre run out in 1st inning (3rd test match) is also his debut run out in test career...
truly , his patience and diligence stand out him as man in boys...!!!
