Welcome to oblivion...

And with these words I begin my journey into the world of blogs...

And speaking of oblivion, here is a typical example of why the most ardent fan of the Indian cricket team despairs when the thought of any BCCI-sanctioned activity is announced.

For many days now Prem Panicker's blog has been sharply divided on this issue, and it is clear that like the Indian team, the followers of Indian cricket are (for the most part) supporters of either the captain or the coach.

My opinion? The coach appears to have a clearer picture of what needs to be accomplished, both long-term and short-term, and should be persisted with. Sourav Ganguly, on the other hand, has been hanging on by the slimmest of threads and needs some time away from the international scene to work out some very obvious kinks in his batting.
