....... Here we go again, There seems to be a little India everywhere, am sitting in a casino in Jolly Beach in antigua , waiting for the saffron restaurant to open . The casion is full of Indins gambling. Spoke to a few locals here , and they reckon that Antigua has lost millions after India got knocked out due to cancelled reservations.
On to the cricket -
Australia V Bangladesh - What a damp squib that turned out to be !! got to the stadium at 9 AM, but it had rained a LOT the night before and the pitch was still wet , match eventually started at 145 pm , the stadium was full of Aussie and Indian supporters .... there were only 4 !! (and I counted them ) Bangladesh supporters in the whole stadium !! I met those 4 at the Coast night club in the evening , they were as surprised as everyone else to be playing the super 8's.
Antigua is distinctly lacking in bangladeshi support ( there are none around) . The place is full of indians and other nationalities.
Met Brian Lara and Courtney Walsh at the Coast night club , courtney signed my shirt , he was thereplaying with his band , which consists of Ritchie Richardson as well , The music is great as are the antiguan women !!bloody beautiful !!
West Indians seem to detest Brian Lara with a passion , an blame him for the decline in the West Indian Team.
Bangladesh V New Zealand- same story !! loads of indians , a few kiwis ... and 4 Bangladeshis.
even the asuusies and the kiwis are missing India in the comptetion , they wated to see a contest .. not a thrashing !! No one believes that India and Pak were beaten by these minnows who are now getting shafted by every team !!.
Right !! off to the bar ... will add more later
