    Mozilla Firefox vs Google Chrome?

    How many of you dont like the fact that Firefox's new update makes it almost a clone of Google Chrome? I for one, don't like it at all. Firefox had its own beauty with its red/gold UI look and with its top-left menu system, the tab look, etc. Now with its current new update, it has gone for...

    World Cup Final moving away from Mumbai?

    Comes from a well known paper in India, Deccan Chronicle, so not easy to brush it off as rumor. Why do these things happen always in India? All are opportunists, trying to find the right time to create problems and gain publicity mileage out of it.

    Muralitharan vs Bishan Singh Bedi - 'Chucking' War

    Seems like this is one war that sounds very exciting. After having kept quiet for so long in reaction to Bedi's comments that Murali is a chucker, today Murali has vented out his frustrations at Bedi by calling him an ordinary bowler who would have been thrashed by today's batsmen for every...

    Dhoni to be axed as ODI/T20 captain : Sehwag in as frontrunner

    This is horrendous. His failures in T20 format makes it easy for the selectors to sack him as ODI captain. And replace him with someone who doesnt want the captaincy burden. This will put Indian cricket backwards in two ways - it will give the reins to the wrong guy, and two it could seriously...
