Oh My IPL!

Wow! What a month! No I'm not talking about the drama off the field (for now), simply the fantastic sporting event that we were lucky to be a part of.

Like I mentioned, I was supporting the Mumbai Indians tonight - partly because of the annoying Chennai fans and, more importantly, because I truly believe they were by far the best team in the league and played the most consistent, first-class cricket. Having said that, the Chennai Super Kings played like true champions in the latter half of the season - proving all the doubters wrong and winning the requisite 6/7 matches they needed to take the trophy home.

Oh, and then there's the small matter of Mahendra Singh Dhoni (who I realised could probably make me turn against my own mother [not literally Ma, chill out] if he flashed his sexy, cool-as-ice smile at me) - try as I might, I can never master the whole "not-supporting" him thing. Anyway, my teenage-girl love for him aside, all his decisions for the team appear to be working which is SUCH a huge plus. Luck's shining on our captain guys - hope we can carry forward this energy into the T20 WC. Let's go Team India!!!

I will put together a short post-match analysis for tomorrow - too tired to do that right now. Also, I have been sent 4 requests to do a "10 Hottest IPL Players 2010"...oh with pleasure! I shall get on that tomorrow as well - very excited for this particular project ;)

OK, time for my Maxx Mobile Time Out (oh how I will miss the obscenely jarring product placement....NOT) but I leave you tonight with the fantastic CSK team song which, like most things Tamil, I absolutely adore (of course it pales in comparison to our KKR chant....but still, they tried :P). Congrats MSD's CSK - your time is now :)



Lots of should-be-sleeping-but-I-can't-stop-watching-Mahi-in-this-video love,
