Day 92 - 6th October 2010

Guess I spoke to soon when I said there is so much time and so little to do. The assignments and pre reads for this term seem to have picked up from where they left off last term. Have a two group dynamics assignments - the deadline for one is tomorrow and the other is day after. Also have a lot of pre reading to do for the Services Marketing and Consumer Behaviour classes. But all of that took a backseat in the afternoon as a cricket match had to be played :-P. Had a practice match - 20 overs, pgp1 v/s pgp2. After restricting them to 94 we seemed to be cruising at 70/2 after 14 overs. But then in true Indian style there was a dramatic collapse, we ended up losing the match by seven runs with the last over of the chase being a maiden!! Yours truly after getting a decent start threw his wicket away trying to finish off the match soon.

Most of the evening was spent analysing the match and deciding on what could be the possible team combinations for the MCL could be. Got to know today that the MCL is quite a long tournament with at least 7 teams (3 each from pgp1 and pgp2 and one from the other courses) and each team playing the other 6 teams once and it is bloody serious cricket! There is absolutely no love lost at the end of some of the matches ;-) After all the cricket related duties were performed it was time to start the GD assignment (glad to know my priorities are all sorted out ;-) ).
