My second post on IPL..
As i thought earlier that Mumbai Indians Or Delhi daredevils will win this years Tournament..Now after todays match result between those two teams ,i just got sure that one of those teams is now entering Semi-finals.. Thanks to Dinesh Karthik superb Match-winning Innings!! He was literally quiet in the tournament so far but came good today......But Why Against Mumbai !!
Actually i wanted both teams to be there in semifinals....and a possible final..
But now equations can go wrong for either of the team ...mind my word CAN!!
Still both the teams can enter Semifinal spots..How??
See how is it possible..
After todays win Delhi stands with 15 points after all their matches ...Thanks to rain gods which gave them 1 Crucial point for free against Poor Dada's Kolkata Team...
Chennai superkings are at 14 points with one match remaining against Deccan chargers on tuesaday..so they should loose their last match and end up with 14 points..
And Mumbai indians will play Rajasthan on Monday..so they should win...then they have their final match against Bangalore Royal challengers..which ideally they should be winning..because every Tom-dick-n-harry are beating this Poor(Rich!!) Mallaya's Team..
So if Mumbai wins both their matches they will go to semifinals comfortably..but if they loose one of those matches..then it becomes little tricky...
suppose Mumbai misses to win on Monday and Chennai wins on Tuesday...Then Its All bye bye for Us we Mumbai-indians Fan!!
So we(Mumbai-indians) have to win on monday against Warne's team to avoid all Ifs- n- Butts for chennai's tuesday match...and believe me we have Sachin who certainly gives Fearsome dreams To Mr Warne ...
And if chennai wins on Tuesday then we ll have to again win our last match against BRC.That ll be a tense match certainly...A virtual semifinal for us..
I think i have confused u all...So i try again my better for one last time..
Chennai wins on Tuesday..Mumbai MUST win both the matches..and delhi is out..
Chennai Loses on Monday..Mumbai Loses one of either match..then those poor mathematical Run- rates come into some use to decide between Mumbai or chennai both with 14 Points at the end...with delhi securing semifinal spot.
And finally which i want..Chennai Loses..And Mumbai wins both matches..and Mumbai and Delhi through to the finals. ya i correct..semi-finals!!
Anyways who cares which team Wins..They all are part of This Gr8 INDIA!! isn't it!
Ufff!! I hope u understand my Guesses...Nyways if not..just enjoy IPL..and Look at this years Big Marketing Event coming to an exciting end.
But Why i m supporting Mumbai and delhi both..simple..Keep reading!!

India is Leaguing Forward- "IPL" but not everywhere..Why?
I heard million times That "Only Change is constant" and possibly first time i am appreciating it so hardly and loudly and Proudly....For One thing IPL..
First season of IPL would have certainly overwhelmed Mr Lalit Mody and His Team.
As i studied Marketing,i am sure it is going to be a live case study in management colleges across India in near future and probably someday in Harvard!!(Surely Not An exaggeration :) )..Also a good topic for Group discussion for admissions into premier and Not-so Premier institutes.
Again Hats-Off To Mr Modi!!
(Mr Political Modi should thank this cricketer Modi for Bringing "Modi" in headlines for Good reasons)..and take a bet it's going to be remembered for Decades Now.
It s certain now Indians are Crazy ,Hungry,Thirsty,Mad ...Give me some better word...whatever it be.....They just love this game of Cricket.
Moreover ,some scientific study should be done to find out why people care so much about entertainment and especially Cricket and believe me if someone wins a Nobel prize someday for studying the Indian psychology to love this game so much..i 'm therefore supporting my argument that People die for sports like Football,Basketball,Baseball,Ice-Hockey,Tennis and so on..
They say Indian Culture is More than 5000 Yrs old and We have become addicted to this Game called cricket which came to us not long before but just 15o Yrs Max!!
....so what's the point??
Point is that ...India should be proud of the fact that we are now globalists not in terms of Businesses alone but Culturally also...We have adopted this game so well that We are able to revolutionize this game and take it further as some evolution is happening at our end...
Test matches to One day matches and Now this T-20 Cricket..
We are such a global power in Cricket now that players are now dying( Poor shoaib Akhtar and PCB) to play for this tournament..It's a another matter of fact that Stakes are only Money & Money & Money..
Because sometime back players used to play for their country to show their Love for nation , Patriotism, and in pre-independence era to fulfill their duties to British raj..
Game has changed Dramatically so fast(Literally!! Such is an Unpredicatable game of Cricket)....I feel sorry about those English County teams where test playing players used to go for practice matches and also to earn Dollars..probably Pounds..
also i can just laugh and thank to Britishers that they gave us another good thing after Railway which is CRICKET!!
It s certainly bringing FOREX to country and also putting back India on Road map of world- Sports as a strong nation ....Not at Olympic levels but surely as a global power at This sport at least.
As everyone knows T-20 is the future Now...so coming Seasons of Indian Cricket and also international cricket will define the Cricket in more meaningful manner.
When at international level various nations will host such a tournament like IPL in their home country and it will become so much competitive for EPL and UEFA cup to beat cricket Viewers hip...assuming this game is catching up in newer countries also.
we will soon have something like Asian Cricket League and Australian Cricket League..Just few wild guesses..Probably you know better leagues!!!
Only request to Mr Modi to join Indian Hockey and do the same magic..It s so strange and so sad that for a country like India Who was just Unbeatable (Like West-Indies in cricket)..now finds it difficult to qualify for Olympics...
Indian Hockey League (IHL) was not that brilliant success story as IPL is scripting now even though some People like me feel that if the entire concept is taken from there.
Anyways as Jack Welch also believed that it's not important that you come out with an Original idea but what 's important is that How well you can execute an Idea..and that's exactly Mr Modi has done .....
Only request to BCCI as governing body to not overexercise their powers and do injustice to other Cricket leagues like ICL and ruin careers of other good players ...
As it 's taught in Theory of Economics that Pure Monopoly is Bad for the markets and for marketers also..so if BCCI doesn't stop its monopolistic attitude then Customers like us will do the Justice in time to come!!
Till then IPL's first season is Just Rocking..And i feel Mumbai Indians Or Delhi Daredevils is Going to win this Tournament this year.

Few eye openers......
FARMER SUICIDE IN VARIOUS PARTS OF VIDARBHA
The suicide by the farmer in the state of Maharashtra is increasing at an alarming rate. As per the latest report as many as 1264 cases of suicide is reported from different parts of the state since June 2005 to till date. The most affected areas are the Vidharbha, Amrawati, Yavatmal and Buldhana district of Maharashtra. The given below table shows the number of suicide in the said districts.
The table shows that the Vidharva region is facing with a grim situation. In fact in the last three month in every 8 hours one farmers is committing suicide.
Former Shetkari Sanghatana leader Vijay Jawandhia pointed out that the farmers, and particularly cotton growers, were in huge distress in view of the present agricultural scenario in the region.
One and a half months into the cotton sale season they find that the government support price is too low. "How can they survive when the costs of agriculture inputs are drastically increasing and they are not getting remunerative price," he asked, and said that more farmers are being pushed to the edge in the region.
Kishore Tiwari of Vidarbha Janandolan Samiti alleged that the government-sponsored cotton marketing federation had hardly purchased 13 lakh quintals of raw cotton from its 100-odd procurement centres, while the private traders have purchased 68 lakh quintals till December 31.
On the other hand, farmers in the region have produced over 220 lakh raw cotton this year. The private traders are offering at least Rs 100 less for every quintal than the support price announced by the government, he added.
Tiwari reiterated that the cotton growers be given at least Rs 500 per quintal as bonus so that they could cope up with the crisis. Moreover, total waving off of the farmers' debts could help in curbing the suicides.
Students accept the challenge to find solutions towards farmers suicide
We can do it
_______________________________________
The students of Welingkar Institiute Of Management Reserach met today to discuss the possible solutions for the long-pending problem of farmers in the region.
The meet was conducted in presence of faculty members like Prof. Sahuraja,Prof Amita Shankar, Prof Ketna Mehta,Madhuri Lele, Prof Deepa Dixit , Ms. Swar Kranti.
It's a long road ahead before reaching to some concrete solutions.
There are so many impracticalities associated with the issue.
Continuous pressure has been building on the state and central governments for last few years.
Despite the efforts of many people,the situation has not improved.
It's really a serious problem while considering that 70 percent of INDIA lies in rural areas.
We can't ignore such a huge population while creating other phenomenal success stories like TATA-CORUS, HINDALCO-NOVELIS,HUTCH-VODAFONE.......and so on.
It is agonizing to see helplessness to tackle this problem .
Who is helpless ......those farmers or we as countrymen to do something about it?
Can we do something to bring back the poor farmers' confidence in our "SYSTEM"?
Are they really POOR ?
definitely not when India is trying to become super global power in near future......
with real sense of commitment and dedication , solutions can be attained.
let's start building that confidence first in ourselves and possibly then in our KISAANS (Farmers).
because there are some people in our country who believe that;
"JAHAAN CHAH WAHAAN RAAH"
which means where there is a will,there is a way.
so with this positive attitude project nirmaan begins "The journey".
no end to farmer suicides in 2007.....
Farmer suicides in Vidarbha cross 100 mark
From correspondents in Maharashtra, India, 07:04 PM IST
The number of suicides by debt-ridden farmers in Maharashtra's Vidarbha region has crossed the three-digit mark in the first 40 days of 2007 with 15 deaths reported during the last three days, including six Saturday.
While most of the 106 suicides have taken place in the six dry-land farming districts of Yavatmal, Amravati, Akola, Buldana, Washim and Wardha in western Vidarbha , one farmer in the rain-fed paddy growing Gondia district in eastern Vidarbha too ended his life Saturday.
The unabated incidence of suicides are significant in the backdrop of the recent revelation by state Finance Minister Jayant Patil that the central government has disbursed only a fraction - Rs.24.8 billion - of the promised Rs.294.1 billion in Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's relief package of July 2006.
The promised Rs.294.1 billion is a part of the total package of Rs.375 billion meant exclusively for completing the pending irrigation projects in western Vidarbha, which will cover an additional 0.15 million hectares of the total 3.5 million hectares of cultivable area. Currently, the area under irrigation is 0.45 million hectares.
Almost 98 percent of more than 1,200 suicides in the last 20 months have occurred in the dry-land farming area in the region 93 percent of which will remain unirrigated even after completion of all the ongoing projects with the support of the prime minister's relief fund.
According to Amravati divisional commissioner S.K. Goyal, monetary provision for micro-watershed development that provides an answer to the agrarian crisis is far too inadquate.
'The farm distress is bound to continue as long as the general approach to agricultural management remains flawed', he says.
'Low priority to in-situ water conservation and mindless application of the green revolution formula of cost intensive farming in unirrigated areas are the hallmarks of the disastrous approach to agriculture', Goyal, who has worked as Maharashtra's agriculture commissioner, added.
Vidarbha Jan Andolan Samiti president Kishor Tiwari, who has been spearheading the farmers' movement in the region, says loan waiver and subsidy for food crop farming should be given priority.
