Cheerleading and yesterday's IPL match

I watched yesterday's IPL match between Royal Challengers and Chennai super Kings. Though did not grab the match completely, i got to see the good a mount of it. A very well fought contest. I supported the royal challengers being a true Mallya fan.. ;) Don't ask why. heheheee.. okie lemme give it in... he bought the Red skin cheerleading team to our shores for the cheerleading services in matches played by Royal challengers. I thought the Royal challengers really managed to loose a winning match at the end of the day. I would say it was the presence of mind shown by Mr.Dhoni at the end that took away the match from the RC team. :( He's(MS Dhoni) been doing this for quite some time now for Indian cricket team too. Toss the ball to the lesser known bowler when there is a tight situation. I don't know how he thinks about it and manages to pass it to the lesser known bowlers when the situation is so tight. !! Really awesome his courage and mental strength. Keeps his cool at very tense moments. Maybe it's because Dhoni feels that since a new bowler is lesser known to batsmen and hence the tactics employed by bowler might jus work with the batsmen of opposition as they do not know much about the bowling style nor the variety bowler has. For example yesterday's Ross taylor's wicket turned the match for Super kings. Palani amarnath was the bowler and i was looking at him for the first time in action :) So was Joginder sharma in the final over of the ICC twenty-20 world cup last year. It does two wonders. One is for the team being, it gets a crucial wicket. Second being, the new face gets much required recognition. So i would say Dhoni grooms good talents.. :) Nice for the team and cricket as a whole. Keep it up MSD :)

About the too much controversy being created out of the cheerleading thing, i think all the women activist and political leaders should try and watch our indian films and TV channel programs first. What are they shouting about after all? For their own gain or for the real concern they have for the society? God, instill some common sense on these ignorant souls. huh! What a mockery they are making out of the profession called cheerleading!!! Can't they see the positive side to it? Or maybe someone should educate them on fitness or dance. Ah! i get it.... the out of 'shape' fairer sex activists are jealous!! ;) Well, these are my own personal view so please respect it and i'm open to discussion on it any day. :)
