From My Corner of the World

This is my personal diary — a space where I try to make sense of the world around me. You'll find short prose on contemporary topics that catch my interest. What can you expect? The best adjectives? … maybe, once in a while. Flowery verbs? … not really my thing. Haiku-like brevity? … I try. Thanks for stopping by — hope you’ll visit again.

Baggy Green, Sandpaper and Reverse Swing

It has been one hell of a fall through the rabbit hole for the australian cricket team this week. The guys who sport the baggy green cap with pride and reverence are now the poster boy cheats of the game. The kangaroos who strutted the cricket field like tough cookies just crumbled and 'bawled' in front of the cameras after getting caught & punished.

For the spectator it was a heady mix of bewilderment, humor and a tinge of sadness to see the rapid fall from grace for the Australian cricket team. For a team that inspired 'Awe' to a spectacle of 'Baww'  the fall has been swift and spectacular
