Ok all said and done in Jammu......this is wat my dad said happened in Bbay.....

1. No Rickshaws on Taxis plying on the road....a few those were, had tuned into the match via radio (on 'ispecial' patented Jhankar beats 'Shystam').

2. Dad was in the temple during the paki batting. Ladies were reading 'Vishnu Sahastranamam' (with Navratri goin on....). When news seeped in abt the fall of a paki wkt.....there wud be a huge roar for a few secs (much to the dismay of all the 'Wadhiyaars'(read priests....dad included!!!)) and then 'Vishnu Sahastranamam' wud start again.
For whom the bell tolls..................

3. Every man with earplugs on is asked "Boss..... score kya hua??" (Doesnt matter if he is listening to Sushil Doshi's commentary or Altaf's 'Rum Vodka Tharra beeer')

4. Maximum number of patrons outside an Electronics shop! (Chai/Panwalas have their own share of celebrity status too)

5. Not to mention the fireworks.......it happens in Bbay even if we ROI in a drab Irani trophy match. But this victory had to special.....the fireworks went on till wee hours of the morning culminating with a '15 Min Maala'!!!!!!!

24th March my friends......forget ur Bday but this day......at ur own peril!
Bring on the Tests suckers.
