Cricket @ Taljai (Pune)

“How in the world did you find such a ground?” was a friend’s remark when he caught a glimpse of the beautiful ground on top of the hill. And to make matters better, a lot of us had turned up to play. My opposite number won the toss and had no hesitation in electing to bat first (why are people so scared of chasing targets? Isn’t it a lot easier to chase?). Anyways, they put up 51 in 12 overs, which we chased it down in just 9 overs. No real funny incident to recount, but a few lessons learnt viz,
- Burger King does not open until 11.30 AM
- Marz-O-Rin burgers suck
