The Indian In The Cupboard

This is a post about the book named "The Indian In The Cupboard". About The Story There is a boy named Omri whose friend is Patrick. The book starts when it is Omri's birthday. His friend Patrick gives him an Indian soldier. Omri's brothers give him a cupboard and his parents gave him a skateboard and a very old key. After he received his gifts he went to his bedroom, put the Indian Soldier into the cupboard, locked it with the key and then slept. The next morning when he woke up there was a patting noise inside the cupboard. He first thought he was dreaming. Then he pinched himself to check if he was dreaming, but actually he was not. He slowly opened the door and saw the Indian Soldier which was plastic, had turned into a real moving toy. At the begining The Indian was scared. After a day or two he started to talk. His name was Little Bull. The story goes on and tells you about how Omri tries to hide it from his parents and brothers.  Facts On The Book  

Holi 2012

On 8th and 10th March in my apartment complex we celebrated Holi. On 8th of March we had a bonfire. I took a few pictures and a video. The bonfire lasted for at least an hour.  On the 10th of March we played Holi. We took pichkaris, water, and colour and played. We had a blast. I played for about 1 hour. Then I started to shiver so I came back home. Here are a few pictures.

Indian Cricket

On the 28 of February India won against Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka set the target 321 in 50 overs. If India wanted to reach finals of the Commenwealth Bank Series, they needed to finish the match in 40 overs or less. Chasing a target of 321 is very very difficfult. Although it was difficult, India won the match in 36.4 overs!! Openers Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar gave a very good start to India. Gautam Gambhir who later came to play made 64 runs and got out. Virat Kohli made 133 of just 86 balls, while Suresh Raina made 40 from just 24 balls. 133 of 86 balls was the best score Virat Kohli has made in his carrer. Virat Kohli has played about 75 matches. He has scored about 3200 runs. He has a record of 9 centuries. His highest score is 133 of 86 balls.He made his ODI debut against Sri Lanka in 2008. He made his test debut against West Indies in 2011. Here is a video.
