ok, i'm not a sporty person.
i can't even get interested in football or baseball.

but today i was glued to the tv during the world cup cricket final.
amazing game. wonderful show of real teamwork and determination... i'm so proud of india!


congrats for winning the 2011 cricket world cup!

if anyone is married to an indian, then cricket automatically becomes a part of your life.

no, not the insects.

i mean the sport. if you still don't know what i'm talking about, just imagine the mother of baseball on crack. in india its almost closer to being a cult than entertainment. let's just suffice it to say that indians are passionate about their cricket.


and when india plays it's arch rival...pakistan... that just takes the crazy to a whole new level.
especially if it's in the cricket world cup semifinals!

which is what happened today.
which is why i stayed up all night to watch cricket for 9+ hours in a theater with my husband and desi friends!


thank you to india for making it worth my while, and thank you pakistan for playing a truly great game! both sides should be proud.


now we're off to the finals...which india hasn't won since 1983!
i think i should get instant wife points for knowing that... :)
