Just a few words...

Suresh Menon in his column on Dreamcricket.com believes the post-match ceremony, with its sheer monotony, has lost all meaning as both the interviewer and the interviewee take up a holding position.

The Man of the Match a) Is happy for his team; after all, individual performances mean nothing (but I will hang on to the cheque, thank you) b) Will always carry memories of this match with him c)Realises the importance of winning at this historic ground d) Put the ball in the right places (if he is a bowler) or was grateful for the support of the other batsmen e) Knew from the start that his team was going to win, although there was that hiccup in the middle overs f) Accepts everything as part of something he calls the learning curve.
