    I saw an advert in HT yesterday. And it was funny. It read “we thank the Democratic Front Government for not allowing price increase in electricity rates.” Now this is what I call a hit back with a bigger punch. Two weeks ago, Shiv Sena hit the roads protesting this move while MNS was busy…

Team India was flying with some over confidence and it was a bit too much for the selectors to ignore the experienced players.
