Unforgetable Memories

I too had met Leander in South Club, Calcutta during the 2003 Davis Cup tie versus New Zealand.

Best of Luck Leander Da, go ahead and try to win the US Open Doubles and Mixed Doubles Titles.

Aamra tomake niye gorbito.

Longlive Paes

Paes is the most patriotic Indian sports person who will ever live in India. i still remember how he demolished Henry Le Conte of France in Rolad Garrows during Davis cup in the early 90's. I was a school boy then.Even now, his game pumps up my adrenalin.. Adding another feather to his cap, he never cries about his "minority status" in India unlike crooks like Azhar etc.... I'm proud of you Leander....

Good sportsmen are a minority in India. Indians are never going to be minorities though.

If one is good, it does not mean the other isn't any good. Azhar was a gentleman and a great cricketer. Both Leander and Azhar gave us a lot to cheer about.

If Azhar is a gentleman then why did he practise Match Fixing ?

watch robinhood and applaud..hear about azhar and frown... wierd.. looks like fantasy is what people appriciate... anyways... wierd that how 1 guy can fix matches, while 10 others did not drive the match (its not army, its a cricket team).. wierd that former famous player is found with unaccounted loads of money in a bank when the lockers were opened due to renovation and then the news is made to die down, and then later he is supported blindly by one and all, when a cricket team owner simply responds to him, out or frustration and irritation of everybody trying to 'advice' him ... surprising, that people can support a BULLYING body and using power to make another body of sport term as illegal and discriminate against people who involve in that (its a fundamental right to be a part of any organisation of work, while playing for the country is beyond that.. the 2 should not be mixed... ) one famous and fabulously rich family keeps buying poor man's land, claiming they are farmers (haha, finally india has Ms indias working as a farmer to support the country) are still considered as superstar.... mmm Azhar is all that people remember...

yeah, but its just as good as some murderers accepting adn facing the trial while the others go on to be political leaders (in this case Azhar ended up being a leader as well, but yeah get the example)... wanna play fair then play fair... call spade a spade, if cannot then making a bias against an already down fallen one... and stand and support the one with mighty connections and is on an upswing, just cuz he is up is like turning the hostile witness.. and equal partner to the crime
