So the world cup got over with Australia winning it
comprehensively. Barely a week later IPL starts. This is the 8th
edition of IPL. This one is a bit special for me and I am enjoying it too. Having
lived without a TV for over 3 years, it’s like a novelty indeed!
Today is third day and third match between Kings XI Punjab
and Rajasthan Royals. First two matches were good. KKR beating Mumbai Indians
at home comfortably, and Chennai winning a last ball thriller against Delhi
Daredevils, and that too by just one run. Delhi have been very miserable in
last two seasons, wining only 5 matches total,
hopefully they would do better this time.
Today’s match is between Rajasthan Royals and Kings XI
Punjab. It is Punjab’s thundering batting vs Rajasthan’s potent and plentiful
bowling attack. Rajasthan were struggling with the bat, James Faulkner salvaging
them with a useful knock at the end. Currently the score is 121 for 5 for Punjab
chasing 163 odd; ball seems to be in Royal’s court as of now!!
What else, new job is going well. My onboarding will happen
in project coming Monday, things will get busy hence. Today was a fun day in
office, we played game in office. A lot of people participated there were 4
teams, with 5 members in each team. Aim was to throw maximum balls in a bin
from a distance. Eventually our team won, had fun and got chocolates as prize!
Team name was MAVERICKS, guess who suggested it!!
Big news of today was Snapdeal.com buying freecharge startup
with $400 million. The founder of freecharge is just 35 years old, has a B.A.
in Philosophy and is a MBA dropout. He is from a business family, but if you
think his concept was very novel, very useful, and instant hit. Definitely
deservers it and he said in an interview today in TOI, he is still going to continue
and keep improving and expanding freecharge website.
