XVCL Project Architecture completed

Thank God the work on XVCL project took some progress. The architecture and the generator code is now finalized and ready to be used. I guess we'll end this phase by tomorrow inshaAllah. Btw this phase was due on October 28 :)... but doesn't matter, we can invest more time in later stages :). I m a bit relaxed n satisfied.

Pakistan's Defeat in ODI series against South Africa

I dont remember I ever hated pakistan cricket or cricketers in the way i did when we lost the last match of the home series in 2007. In the match played in lahore, pakistan was all set to win untill the score was 209/5. This was a classic show of irresponsibility, shamelessness, foolishness (n wat not) of the lower middle order batsmen. More specifically i dont understand why a veteran of 230 plus ODIs H.E. Mr. Shahid Khan Afridi couldn't take his team home when it was only 15 needed of 25. I mean when will the team (more specifically the batsmen) get matured? When will they learn to win the nailbiters? when will they stop chokin in such circumstances? when will our batsmen feel responsibility? when will they learn to decide which short to play? in short i m strongly feeling tht it will b of no use to follow the indo-pak series starting from next week.......
v have a good bowlin attack n i think it is the real thing on the subcontinent pitches... our pacers can even trouble the batsmen on such dead, flat or spinner friendly wickets... our bowlers get the opponent out on a chaseable score n our 'brilliant' batsmen always make a mess, which is a shame... afridi i guess is a liability as a batsman... the team must not rely on him in future n if he scores consider it a bonus... atleast i wont expect anything from afridi as a batsman in future...
