Most of the cricket pieces these days feels like statistics report from a business analyst. And there's a place for that surely. But I miss the old fashioned sports writing which takes you back to the game and stirs emotions. I will post some of those here on yesterday's game.

@Prithvi10_ @mxtaverse Erandwane, Model colony, Prabhat road, Kalyani Nagar, Koregaon park. The pune developed after peth areas are all good. The issue is with the areas expanded afterwards, like 2000s onwards.

Japan the only Muslim country where Sunnis and Shias can be together and being Sushi.

If a corporator thinks it’s okay to beat up a doctor, then the next time there’s a pothole in a road in his area, is it okay to beat him?

@tds122 I really want to understand what was wrong with that goal.

It would be fair to say that the underground portion of the Mumbai Metro 3 Aqua line has passed its sternest monsoon test so far with flying colours.

Hab ein wenig die Befürchtung, sollte Belgien die USA aus dem Turnier werfen, dass Trump dann Deutschland mit Sanktionen bestraft, weil er zu dämlich ist, die Flaggen auseinanderzuhalten.

Americans failed to come up with their own football chant so they stole the rowing one from Norwegians.

[Albert Kim @Albert_Kim2022]

Belgium 🇧🇪 has every right to be furious.

FIFA isn’t fooling anyone with that explanation.

Corruption is corruption and it’s bad for the game.

@Pivot2Centre Not only dehat but people like Gideon Haigh will call us Nazis.

This is such a weird objection..our cities are dirty, so our airports should not be nice? Also notice that she thinks only foreigners use airports 😭

Ye kya chal raha hai world cup me bhai

[Hardik Rajgor @Hardism]

When FIFA suspends Nepal, India or an African country's football federation over "government interference", it is supposed to be a verdict and commentary on the third world institutions in place in these countries.

But when the US President calls the FIFA head to overturn a red card in the middle of a World Cup, and then celebrates the said call and decision on social media, it is to "save the game" and reverse the "injustice".

It is not hypocrisy. It is hierarchy.

We currently accept private solutions to public failures (gated communities, private air purifiers etc.), but until the urban working class treats "Ease of Living" as a consolidated voting block, our cities will remain economic engines run on broken infrastructure.

[Akshay @iAkshP]

I genuinely think political space available in our country for the globalized, tax-paying, office-going class is entirely politically orphaned. National parties, by their very design, are structurally incapable of serving them.

A construction at Bhandup West collapses on Saturday morning due to heavy rain

[Akshay @iAkshP]

Even if there's a municipal reform giving more autonomy, the representatives of the national parties will still have to toe the party lines, being hostage to the macro politics of the country.
