Sanjay Dutt- Back to the jail again

2007-10-22T22:05:00.000-07:00

Getting relief of two months the Indian best actor Sanjay Dutt surrendered again. He received his judgment copy on Monday, which is about the 4,340 pages. But he did not look depressed.

TADA court had convicted him for possession of an AK-56 rifle and a pistol under the Arms Act and sentenced him to six years' imprisonment on July 31.

On August 20, the apex court granted him bail till the time as he gets the copy of the judgement.

The copy, running into 4,340 pages, was handed to him on Monday. Sanjay, wearing his usual blue shirt and blue jeans, signed the receipt after collecting the box containing the copy.

His lawyer Satish Maneshinde requested the court that Sanjay be kept in the Yerawada jail only, but Special Judge Pramod Kode said that was to be decided by the prison authorities.

Sanjay has already filed appeal against his conviction before the Supreme Court. His lawyers said that within a week's time they will move the apex court for a regular bail.

The Supreme Court will have a Diwali vacation from first week of next month, so Sanjay's lawyer have about two weeks in hands.

BCCI bans sale of balls with its logo

2007-10-19T22:38:00.000-07:00

In the last few years, captains and players have made numerous complaints about the worsening quality of the balls used in domestic matches. At times, 20 or more balls were changed in a match after they went out of shape.

The board has now finally asked the ball suppliers, Sansperils Greenlands (SG), to immediately improve the quality and to also stop selling balls in the market with the Board of Control for Cricket India (BCCI) logo.

'We had a detailed discussion with SG representative Kailash Anand recently, and it has been decided to place a central order for the supply of balls for all 2007-08 domestic tournaments. He was also told to stop public sale of balls bearing the BCCI logo,' a top BCCI official told IANS.

'He has assured us that the company would take steps to improve the quality of the balls and that there would be fewer complaints in the new season, which began this month with the Irani Trophy.'

I gave Tendulkar out wrongly against England: Umpire Dar

2007-10-19T21:10:00.000-07:00

Pakistani umpire Aleem Dar has, for the first time, admitted he gave Sachin Tendulkar out wrongly in the deciding seventh One-Day International against England in London last month.

'Immediately after I gave Tendulkar caught by wicket-keeper Matt Prior off Andrew Flintoff I realised from his reaction that I had given a wrong decision,' Dar told IANS in an interview here.

Tendulkar, who scored 30 off 46 balls, was visibly stunned and he uncharacteristically stood in his crease for a few seconds, suggesting he had not snicked the ball, before returning to the dressing room.

Batting first, India were reduced to 59 for four with Tendulkar's dismissal and eventually lost the match by seven wickets at Lord's and with it the series 3-4.

Dar, who was here to officiate in the India-Australia One-Day Internationals, said that the mistake had occurred because of a brief lapse in his concentration.

'On that ball Flintoff was very close to bowling a no ball and as I was looking at his foot my concentration was disturbed,' said Dar, widely considered one of the best umpires in the world.

Asked if he felt like taking his decision back to enable Tendulkar to continue batting, the 39-year-old member of the International Cricket Council's Elite Panel said that he had never recalled any player.

'Since I had never called any batsman after giving a decision I did not call him back. So, if I were to call Tendulkar I would also call the last man if given wrongly out,' reasoned the man from Lahore.

'I knew that match was the decider. And I was upset after giving that decision. It was tough match (for me),' he said, referring to the 3-3 series score before that match.

Dar, however, showed his regret and tried to show his feelings to Tendulkar immediately after the match.

'After the game when players shake hands with the umpires, Tendulkar also shook my hands on the field. As he did that I said to him 'hard luck',' disclosed the affable official, who became the first Asian to officiate in 100 ODIs here Wednesday.

'Players also know that how good an umpire is. They understand that mistakes are not made deliberately and they respect good umpires.'

A former first-class player himself, Dar revealed that if he is not satisfied with one of his decisions early in a match it bothers him.

'If I give an erroneous decision early in a match it plays on my mind. But I try not to let that decision affect me for the rest of the match,' he said.

Dar, who also officiated the final of the 2007 ODI World Cup, was recently short-listed among the three umpires for the annual ICC's Best Umpire Award, which eventually went to Australian Simon Taufel.

He is thankful to his parents and his wife for their sacrifices to enable him to be away for long periods and concentrate on his job. His work entails him being away from home for seven-eight months a year, which forces him to miss his three young sons.

That is why Dar, who has also officiated in 39 Tests, has decided to quit umpiring at 50, 10 years before the retirement age prescribed by the ICC.

LOVE NO CHARGES........

Love No Charges

In a small village not far from the town, lived a poor woman with her four
year old son, Tommy. Every day Tommy helped his mother by sweeping the
house, washing the dishes, getting the water from the well for their tea.
His mother taught him how to make his bed in the morning, and sometimes he
prepared the breakfast for himself and his mother.

When Tommy was six, his mother decided he should go to school and this
really gave Tommy great joy but he didn't like leaving his mother alone; but
his mother encouraged him to go to school so that he could learn more.

So every morning before Tommy left for school, he did everything like he
used to do. This made Tommy late sometimes but it didn't worry him because
he loved his mother very much.

One day, one of To"mmy's best friends asked him why he used to come to
school late. Tommy told him he had to help his mother to clean the house and
pick up the rubbish before he left. Tommy's friend laughed and said, "Your
mother is treating you like a servant, she should do all those work by
herself and let you come to school so that you won't be late every day. If I
were you, I would ask her to pay you for all the work that you had done."

Tommy thought that all his friend said was right, so all the way home from
school, he was wondering how to let his mother know what he wanted.
Finally, an idea came.

Next morning, Tommy woke early, prepared himself and went off without
anything to eat, and without doing any work like he used to do; before he
left, he put a letter on the table. Mother woke up and found out that there
was a big difference in the house - nothing was done, not even his bed, the
rubbish was still there, no breakfast etc: She came in the kitchen and saw
an envelope on the table, so she sat down and started to read what was
written.

Dear Mum,

I realize now that you are treating me like a servant, not as your real son,
so I would like you to pay for all the work I have done.

For making my bed every morning $4.00
Sweeping the floor $2.00
Picking up the rubbish $4.00
Getting water from the well $3.00
Preparing breakfast $2.00

The total is $15.00

I want this money when I come home.

Your son Tommy

His mother could hardly see anything, her eyes were full of tears and her
heart was heavy. After school, Tommy came quickly home, he felt happy that
his mother could give what he wanted. When he arrived, he opened the back
door quietly and went in, he was very happy when he saw a white envelope on
the table; he took it and went inside his room and started to read.

My dear son,

I accepted with much love and joy what you have asked for, but before I give
you the money, I would like to tell you how much I love you.

I carried you in my womb for nine months - no charge
Washed and clothed you - no charge
Fed you - no charge
Cared and watched over you nights and days when you were sick - no charge
Took you to school - no charge

So when I add them all up the full cost of my love is - no charge

At that moment, the door opened and mother came in to give the money to
Tommy, but Tommy was crying and trying to say something.

His mother said, "My dear son, are you not satisfied with the money I am
giving you? I am really sorry, you know I am very poor so that's all I could
afford."

Tommy came and knelt in front of his mother and told her that he was sorry,
and he had been influenced by his friend. So starting from that time, Tommy
and his mother once again lived happily together . . .
