Metro to Tumkur? Is that needed?

@hitchwriter One game isn’t really enough. It’s best to try these things in no-consequence bilaterals that no one watches.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

@hitchwriter I think they are trying a specific experiment to see if Axar at 5 is viable in SA. I think they will conclude it’s not, buy the time series ends.

@hitchwriter Who would you bat ahead in this lineup?

Ballmer - the GOAT.

[Sheel Mohnot @pitdesi]

Was looking into how stocks reacted to news of iconic CEOs leaving:

Buffett: -5.1%
Ellison: -5.5%
Marchionne: -4%
Jobs: -10%

Steve Ballmer: +7.3%!

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

Really don’t see this line in its current state moving the needle. It starts in the middle of nowhere and ends in the middle of nowhere. Connect at least to MG Road.

Bengaluru Metro's Pink Line Kalena Agrahara to Tavarekere (Suddaguntepalya) will open for public services from 6am on Nov 14, taking the operational network to 103Km.

Five trains will initially operate on Pink Line at eight-minute intervals. BMRCL will review frequency based on passenger demand and signalling stability, with plans to increase services.

@kp29m Looks like it. Even a pliant Board has to act now.

Looks like the obituaries are out?

As the swirl continues (which I believe should be taken seriously), let’s pause for a moment and remember what Jensen has contributed to our industry with his determination and vision, which laid the foundation that we all work off of today.
Jensen’s statements have shown grace and dignity to his family and the industry. He surely understands the impact.
Now we should be patient and wait for investigations by the board of directors and any government authorities to conclude.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

@vasudevg But what are the timelines.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

They need a way to connect Yeshwantpur to Hebbal. Announce it before year end.

10 minute walk from my place. But, we need the underground stations to get done.

He’s got cold feet. Pretty sure he wasn’t expecting to be in the eye of the storm for what he thought was some innocent marketing for his book. Now, trying to put the genie back in the bottle.

[Nimish Dubey @nimishdubey]

This is extremely surprising. He is either went in totally unprepared or is extremely uncertain about what he stands for. It is kind of odd.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

There was a time when Jayadeva was just a vanilla flyover.

[Shilpa @shilpa_cn]

Bengaluru’s Jayadeva flyover! Yellow Line, Pink Line.. Engineering at its finest! 🔥

Sehwag would make it to my all time Test XI, but I don’t see him making it to my all time OD XI. An average of 35, albeit at an SR of 104, doesn’t cut it.

[Saurabh Somani @saurabh_42]

There is simply no comparison between the two. Virender Sehwag would make an all-time India ODI XI if it hadn't been for Rohit Sharma's emergence. (Can still make it, depending on how you structure your batting order).

Sourav Ganguly will struggle to make even the second XI.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

It’s either Jadeja or Washington. NKR is fine as long as he doesn’t bat at 8. He is not a good enough bowler to bat at 8.

[Pranav Nair @leg_gully]

India's ideal XI for 1st test v New Zealand should be:

Yashasvi Jaiswal
KL Rahul
Devdutt Padikkal
Shubman Gill (C)
Rishabh Pant (WK)
Ravindra Jadeja
Nitish Kumar Reddy
Akash Deep
Jasprit Bumrah
Mohammed Siraj
Prasidh Krishna

Washington Sundar or NKR, that's the spot for debate.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

@hitchwriter This is the team that will play. Though I feel this is not the team that should play. I would get Deep or Kamboj instead of NKR. If NKR plays, then bat him at 7, drop Jadeja.

[Ramakrishnan G @fullyarbit]

Can he replace Nitish Kumar Reddy?

[Shashank Kishore @captainshanky]

Manvanth Kumar, 22, wasn't part of Karnataka's Ranji probables on October 4. One month on, he has two first-class centuries and five wickets in a match. On the seam-bowling allrounder: https://t.co/y0jaFcdbD9
