ScrIBLBePad: Believe it or not!

I had wanted to write about Sachin for a long time. So here i go. But i wish i had something else to write instead of this! Right from my childhood days, i have been very fortunate. I have had the opportunity to meet and spend some quality time with A.R.Rahman and Sachin very frequently. . . . . . .*in my dreams*! Most of them have been very exciting, some weird, some crazy and a few funny ones as well. In recent times, some of them seem to come true as well! I guess I have developed an ESP of late!

Dream1 : India vs SL- I has watchin the 4th day of the test match till late night. I knew Sachin would bat the next day, and i had this dream of Sachin getting his century off the last ball of the 5th day's play, n guess wat?, yes he did get his century just a few minutes before play ended. Had it been any other batsman in his 90s, the captain wouldn have cared for him, n play would have been called off! But, this time it was Sachin! So no1 dared to call off play even when they knew that the game was heading nowhere!

Dream 2 (read as nightmare) : India vs Bangladesh- Bangladesh was batting, or were at least trying to bat! n I, as usual, was watching the game till late night. Now, this night's was really weird. I had gone skiing in NJ a few days back. n here in Raleigh, my friends n me had planned to go skiing again. So probably that had gotten inside my mind, so that night it was me n Sachin going skiing! We were having a race, n i beat Sachin at it!! Apparently Sachin had tripped over n hurt his arm! I had this customary practice of checking Cricinfo for the news even before i get up from my bed. I was shocked to see that Sachin had injured his shoulder while attempting a catch!

Dream 3 (read as nightmare) : India vs SA- Ya right, u know what i was doing-watching the match till late night. SA were 2 down for almost nothing on the scoreboard. But then, some inspired batting had taken them to 550 odd. I regret having slept that night! I had a dream of Sachin scoring a boundary and getting out the very next ball! However, the scoreboard in my dream read India-233/7, n then eventually 640 all out thanks to ZAK n Bhajji. Sachin's dismissal came true. 200 odd/7 came true. But, unfortunately the 640 all out didnt!
