An inning of memories with cricket.

Going back to my memories, whenever there was a cricket tournament going on it would irritate me a lot. (specially if it were a Sunday, because I didn't get to watch my favorite tv show) 
      It wasn't like I hated cricket or something but I was too young to understand even the simplest of the rules.
Not having much choice I however would sometimes sit with everyone and watch it. One day my father asked me if I did understand it, and I don't know how come I was able to say at least this much that there were six balls in an over and there were total of fifty overs.
After that I started watching it regularly and that was when Dhoni was new. He had just entered  his golden period of his games. I found his innings awesome with Yuvraj. I have many of his century days all learned up.
By that time I was all into cricket.
I understood the rules, not all of them but most of it, just enough, in order to enjoy it.
    One of my classmates during that time was a big fan of Dhoni. She was all like, I want to marry him and stuff. She always used to correct me pronounce it 'dhwoni' and not 'dhuni':D. Not just her, all of a sudden that whole school time was all about cricket.
All know what Dhoni has given to the Indian cricket since then. I like his smile. He seldom does have a reaction in his face but when he does that, its so nice to watch him:)
I remember it was my boards the other day and I watched the world cup the whole time. It was legendary to watch India win.
Then his contributions to 20-20 cricket format is well known to all. I however didn't watch test cricket very much though still want to thank him for everything he has given to India as player and most importantly as a captain.
I however watch less cricket as compared to before.
I have had my crush on players of which most of them are retired now like Andrew Flintoff, Daniel Vettori, Brett Lee and the list goes on./*I have news paper cuttings of articles and some awesome pics collected in my old diary;) */

We are lucky to have witnessed legends like Sachin Dendulkar play and Indian team winning world cup of which Mahendra Singh Dhoni was an incredible part of and lot lot more.

P. S. :  I wish to see Dhoni play more and more. His quitting captaincy from all formats now is really heartbreaking though he is a man with right decisions at the right time and I welcome it.
