This is strange. MS is havng a flood of reviews for last couple of weeks. You get reviews on topics like advice on selecting chimney, or a review of a film that even DD's regional channel will refuse to air even in off-peak hours - but a game like hockey, the national game of Inda (dont tell me its 'kabaddi') a game in which India has won 8 olympic gold, easily the sport in which the country has an all time great historical past , is hardly talked about. More annoyingly , the world cup is going on, and still , I have not come across any review on the topic !
This is just to update you that India has performed disappointedly so far, has lost two matches in the group , drawed their match with South Africa yesterday and are almost out of the race and has to relay on luck to be in the last fore. Its lying right at the bottom of its group and has to depend on a lot of permutation and combination to make it into semis. Honestly they should be in the semis, for their performance has beeen below rated.
The fav amoung the teams are Holland, Australia and Host Germany, with Pak being the dark horse along with Spain.
I would have loved to write more but am not feeling enough enthu inside :(
Would aprreciate if we can see a couple of more reviews on the topic ...
