I came across http://qz.com/489579/a-long-and-painful-goodbye-to-my-dying-grandparents/ The story in these pics has become a common story across India. Look at any community you will see elderly parents and grand parents living alone. They worked hard to give their kids the best education they possibly could. The whole generation sacrificed their present so that future of theirs kids could be bright. They pushed and kids also worked hard, got educated in good colleges. Some secured jobs in cities far away from home town, other moved abroad and the parents/grand parents were happy. Their kids were enjoying success. Time passed by.

There is one from one each from South Africa and West Indies. Just by looking at those stats you can tell there is no one to represent England in Bowling department and No one to represent West Indies in Batting in top 10 positions which explains why these two teams are where they should be. Similarly there is no representation from Bangladesh and Ir...
Indian World Cup dreams are over but the crisis Indian Cricket is facing is far from being over. The man at center of all attention is Greg Chappell, The coach of Indian Cricket Team. Is he really the coach? Or Is he a mere politician who has used policy of Divide and Rule to systematically destroy a team and to maintain his authority by playing his cards. The era of Greg Chappell as coach of Indian team has been marked with one controversy after another. The list of controversies is huge. Chappell and Ganguly, Chappell and Yuvraj, Chappell and Tendulkar, Chappell and Harbhajan, Chappell and Sehwag, Chappell and Chappell's finger.
