Chargers ???

Not a maverick level cricket fan, but I do follow a bit of cricket.

ICL as a concept was excellent, and IPL copied to the "T". Added more drama in it, by having "owners" for teams etc. Let me not get into those details, but at least, I thought Super Kings, and Deccan Chargers were the best of teams (theoretically)

Super Kings are still living up to their reputation, but DC failed to impress me. They just proved to be "Paper tigers" (no pun intended, that it is owned by a News paper group)

Initially I didn't have a choice of "favorite" team. There is a moral dilemma. Which is my home team. Hyderabad or Bangalore? or should I support any team of my choice based on merits of team, or let the best team win.

I started off with the series enjoying the game.
But with yesterday's game of Hyd Vs Delhi, I switched off after 10th over of Delhi batting.
I did not enjoy the first game where Bangalore lost.

Was it because my "home team" was losing?
Was it that I am not enjoying the game as it is too much one sided.

Even if the game is too much one sided, similar to this, and the winning team is India, and other team is some other country, we would have enjoyed thoroughly.

So, did this bring out a true lover of game or a "home team supporter" ???

Not sure.

Moral dilemma continues...
