Budget 2012 : A Juggling Act ?
 The
great Indian budget this year is nothing more than band-aid on
the festering sores of the Indian economy. It is a holding
operation, at best, until the political climate turns more
congenial. The last couple of years haven’t been the best for

up. True to style, he has walked off international cricket at

retirement from all forms of cricket, save for IPL.

100th 100 SACHIN DARES THE SELECTORS
 Humility
has always been the hallmark of Sachin Tendulkar’s persona. He
was extremely ill-advised to have taken a combative stand on his
retirement at his latest press conference.At the very least, he
could have phrased it differently. All he needed to say that he
was still enjoying his cricket and that it was for the selectors
to take a call on whether he was good enough to represent India.
