"Mohali Mania"

The World Cup semi-final between India and Pakistan was placarded as the match of the big statement  It was believed it would be dominated by an larger-than-life performance from a handful of cricketers who would make game-altering, life-changing contributions over 100 overs. It would be a grand annunciation of skill that suited a contest watched by heads of state and government meeting at a cricket ground to talk about peace because a match had suddenly broken out in the neighborhood.
The big occasion in Mohali today didn't quite find the alpha males. India's World Cup MVP was sent back home within a minute of arrival, by a swinging full-toss, and Sachin Tendulkar scratched out an 85 that was quite the opposite of one his many routine, treasured, "chanceless" innings. Sachin Tendulkar never got "5 lives" in a single match in the career of 21 Year. He himself said that "Five lives! God has been kind to me. It is not something which has happened to me earlier". 
The men who did the thorough stringent housekeeping when 260 had to be defended were the ones who have not been cognitive state in an Indian starting line-up through the tournament or rather to say in past 3-4 years.
India's win was steadily carved out amid the heat and noise of Mohali not by its magnanimousness but its plebs: the bit-part men who live in the halfway house between belonging and dispensability in the XI.


There are many excruciating and frustrating ways to lose a game, let alone one as big as this, but few gnaw away at reason and rationality quite like those lost to dropped catches. In this age of the instant vent and search for a "match ka mujrim" (criminal of the match), Misbah-ul-Haq's innings is already being savaged in Pakistan for its poor pacing. The reaction is misplaced and immoderate, for the pitch wasn't given to facile stroke-play, particularly after the ball worn, and there had already been some momentum-losing pathetic shots earlier from the openers.


What were once considered the weak links of the Indian team have turned out to be its toughest cookies. And with no crumbling.


Indian team shown their courage and a competitive, goal-driven, "take charge" attitude.


The game might be decided by a single knife-edge blast of brilliance, a captaincy gamble that either works or backfires, a schoolboy nerves-induced botch. It might be won at a canter by overwhelming batting dominance, or superior bowling incision. This is a genuinely enamouring contest. And if it directly or indirectly aids the cause of political harmony (and/or celebrity public profiles) in the bargain, so much the better.

Inside my felicity...!!!!!

Inside my felicity, there is nothing

But felicity for me

The emblazons are so vivid and extreme

everything clearly i am able To see

there was no Dismal times

 because in my happiness The sun always shines

There is no Pain, there is no fear

And there is certainly no doubt dear

we all live unrivalled and there is peace

For all beings happiness is at ease

Wrangle never happened, there are no sorrows

And no tears, so the hurt doesn’t exist

There is god And he planned all this for me

Inside my felicity, there is nothing

But felicity for me 

South Africa's Chokers Syndrome........!!!!!!!!!

Graeme Smith started the Game very Cleverly when gave the ball to Robin Peterson to start the game.Peterson also justified the decision of Smith by providing him early breakthrough.Strauss trying to show early intent, KP too failed after which they couldn't please the scoreboard and the batting struggled to post 171 only.


Despite the tricky pitch, South Africa had broken the back of the run-chase after an opening stand of 63 between Graeme Smith and Hashim Amla. However, they suffered two slumps; the first as three wickets fell for 19 - with Broad claiming the vital scalps of Amla and Jacques Kallis - then the more significant slide from 124 for 3 to 165 all out as Anderson produced his finest spell of reverse-swing since the Ashes as he trimmed de Villiers' bails and then clattered JP Duminy's stumps two balls after he'd been reprieved by the DRS having been given caught down the leg side.


It had been a controversial moment because there didn't seem enough evidence to overrule the on-field umpire, but Anderson soon made it irrelevant. In between those two wickets, Bell showed brilliant alertness at short leg as he stopped du Plessis's shot and flicked it to Prior in time to complete the run out.


An extended run for van Wyk may turn him into the dependable man South Africa need in that position and if Botha comes back into the starting XI, he may provide stability and security in the lower middle order. Until then, it's going to remain a cluster of talented players, the kind that look good if their job is to build on what the top order has created but who can still get singed when the heat is really on.


At the End, South Africa retains their famous tag of 'Big Match Chokers ' with their measurable performance in the match.


Full credit goes to English players, who hold their nerve on crucial situation. With this win England took revenge of last World Cup and keeps their chances fairly alive in the tournament.

My Final words when I saw the Result of the Match....

"What a World Cup England are producing. From a thrilling tie against India to the shock of losing to Ireland they have now conjured a stunning fightback to beat South Africa"........!!!!!!!!!

"Paradigm Shifts of Life"........!!!!!!!!

So many times have you had experienced one of those “ah-ha” moments where forthwith before the moment you were sold out in one way of thinking and immediately after the moment your direction of thought was 180 degrees different. Those instants as it relates to your philosophy on life is what I call “The Great Paradigm Shifts of Life.”I was an individual who achieved a college degree and influenced someone to give me a job that most people would work for the rest of their lives comfortably. As such I regarded myself as successful. Immediately after this great paradigm shift I realized that the label of success I had given myself was relative to a mediocre bar. By raising the bar I raised my expectations, redefined my criteria for success and restarted my success quest. Therein lays the great paradigm shift.
George Arliss said once that “Humility is the only true wisdom by which we prepare our minds for all the possible changes of life.” 
Recognize you have limitations. Assess yourself honestly and commit to getting better. Appreciate your talents but appreciate the fact that there’s always room for improvement.Acknowledge your mistakes and make corrections even if those corrections require reaching out to someone more talented or experienced than you. Know that no matter how good you are there’s always someone who is better. Don’t think so high of yourself to believe that you can’t seek help. Know that there are always others who are willing to assist you. If you so happen to be the very best in the world at a particular thing know that there are other areas in which you can improve. 


 Be Aware. Where ever you are. Be aware of your surroundings. Be aware of your thoughts. Be aware of your beliefs. It’s often said that when most people are at home they think about work and when they are at work they think about home. It’s one of my firmest beliefs that everything happens for a reason. It’s not always a reason that we can readily identify but a reason nonetheless. Instead of just hearing the words, absorb the message. Instead of just reading the text grasp the meaning.
By being humble, ready to entertain new ideas and aware with a purport of excellence you create an environment conducive to experiencing the great paradigm shifts of life...........!!!!!
