{PDF EPUB} Beyond the Blues a Cricket Season Like No Other by Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Beyond the Blues A Cricket Season Like No Other by Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra. A stonewaller at the top and one of the greatest short-leg fielders India have produced, Aakash Chopra played 10 Tests between October 2003 and October 2004. He took 15 catches, some of them exceptional, while his 437 runs came at 23, but to his credit he hung around for 66 balls every time he batted under challenging circumstances. Not that he complained, for he had to drop anchor as the swashbuckling Delhi batsmen went about bludgeoning the bowlers. He opened with his Delhi mate Virender Sehwag 11 times away from home — in Australia in 2003-04 and in Pakistan in 2004 — averaging 58 per dismissal. In Australia their 8 stands got them 459 runs at 57. He started well, crossing 30 in each of his first 5 innings, and though he got only 2 fifties, there were 4 other scores in excess of 40. His axing came abruptly, when India decided to push Yuvraj Singh to the top despite Chopra’s gutsy performances. Chopra had risen through the Under-19 ranks, and once in the Delhi team he found runs quickly, amassing 554 in his first season at 69. He topped the 900-run mark in the domestic seasons of 2000-01 and 2001-02, both at averages in excess of 60. Unfortunately, an anterior cruciate ligament delayed his Test debut in 2002-03. He never played after 2003-04, but he suddenly found form four seasons later, when he scored 1,339 runs in four-day cricket and slammed three unbeaten quickfire hundreds in Vijay Hazare Trophy. So belligerent were his innings that he earned an IPL contract with Kolkata Knight Riders. But despite India’s opening problems he was left out of the squad for the 2007-08 tour to Australia as Sehwag was called up out of nowhere. Chopra later moved to Rajasthan, and played a key role in them their first two Ranji titles — that too in consecutive seasons, starting from the Plate Group in the first season. This also included 301 not out against Maharashtra — a marathon spread over 13-and-a-half hours. He also played for Himachal Pradesh, and finished with 10,389 First-Class runs at 45. He later became a popular columnist and commentator. His two books — Beyond the Blues: A First-Class Season Like No Other and Out of the Blue: Rajasthan’s Road to the Ranji Trophy are the greatest books written by Indian Test cricketers.

The crushing defeat at the hands of the Australians was soon correlated with MS Dhoni’s move of keeping Virender Sehwag out of . Aakash Chopra. Chopra made his Test debut in Ahmedabad against New Zealand in late 2003 as India sought to find an opening partner for his Delhi teammate Virender Sehwag. [1] Chopra's international career started well, scoring two half-centuries against New Zealand during 2003/04 in the second Test in Mohali. On the 2003–04 tour to Australia, he featured in many solid partnerships with Virender Sehwag, including two century opening partnerships in Melbourne and Sydney. Chopra's work in seeing off the new ball saw him credited with the large scores that India accumulated in that series when middle-order batsmen Rahul Dravid, V. V. S. Laxman, Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly regularly compiled large centuries. [1] On the subsequent tour to Pakistan, he compiled another century stand with Virender Sehwag as India posted more than 600 runs in the first innings to set up a heavy innings defeat of arch-rivals Pakistan in the first Test in Multan. However, in the second Test, the Indian batsmen failed in a losing effort, apart from a century from Yuvraj Singh, who played in place of the injured captain Sourav Ganguly. [2] When Ganguly returned for the final Test, Chopra was axed and Yuvraj was retained. Chopra was reintroduced as Sehwag's partner in the 2004 Border-Gavaskar Trophy after Tendulkar was injured for the First Test in Bangalore. However, a heavy loss saw Chopra axed for the following match in Chennai upon Tendulkar's return, with Yuvraj elevated to opening the innings. Yuvraj also struggled, and Chopra was recalled for the Third Test in Nagpur. However, a double failure by Chopra, as Australia won a series in India for the first time in 35 years, saw him dropped for the last time, after his career average gradually decreased, however, from 46.25 to only 23. Chopra was replaced by Delhi teammate Gautam Gambhir, and was overtaken by Gambhir and Wasim Jaffer in the race to partner Sehwag in the Test side. Due to his low scoring rate, he was not considered for One Day Internationals. He played for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 1, IPL 2, but was sent back to India as he was deemed unfit for T-20 matches played in IPL 2. In IPL 4 he had been signed by Rajasthan Royals. Domestic. In September 2008, Aakash played for Delhi in the Nissar Trophy against SNGPL (winners of Quaid-i-Azam Trophy from Pakistan) and scored 4 and 197 for Delhi. [3] The match was drawn but SNGPL won the trophy on first-innings lead. [4] After representing Delhi for a long time, Chopra joined Rajasthan as a guest player in Ranji Plate division. [5] He helped Rajasthan to become the first Plate division team to win the Ranji Trophy followed by another Ranji trophy win in 2010–2011 season. He has won three Ranji titles in total—one with Delhi and two with Rajasthan. He's one of the few Indian cricketers who have scored over 8,000 First-Class runs. Media. His columns regularly appear in Mid-Day and on Cricinfo. He is currently with Star Sports, Sony and Sony Espn as a cricket commentator and analyst. He was also a commentator for the 7 network with its coverage of the 2018/19 Australia v India test series. In 2009 Chopra released Beyond the Blues: A First-Class Season Like No Other , a diary of Chopra's 2007–08 domestic season. It was published by Harper Collins. It was critically acclaimed and Suresh Menon of Cricinfo wrote that it was "the best book written by an Indian Test cricketer". [6] In November 2011, his second book was published by Harper Collins titled Out of the Blue , about Rajasthan's victory in the Ranji Trophy. He went on to write two more books—The Insider with Espn Cricinfo in 2015 and Numbers Do Lie with Impact Index in 2017. Harper Collins has published all his work thus far. In May 2020, Aakash Chopra signed as a commentator with popular mobile cricket game World Cricket Championship to lend his voice for the upcoming WCC3 game.

  • Is a Metropolitan Region in India That Includes the National Capital City, New Delhi
    Delhi (/ˈdɛli/, also known as the National Capital Territory of Delhi) is a metropolitan region in India that includes the national capital city, New Delhi. It is India's second-most-populous city after Mumbai, and the largest city in terms of area. With a population of 22 million in 2011, the city is the fourth-largest city in the world.[2][3] The NCT and its urban region have been given the special status of National Capital Region (NCR) under the Constitution of India's 69th amendment act of 1991. The NCR includes the neighbouring cities of Baghpat, Gurgaon, Sonepat, Faridabad, Ghaziabad, Noida, Greater Noida and other nearby towns, and has nearly 22.2 million residents.[4] Although technically a federally administered union territory, the political administration of the NCT of Delhi today more closely resembles that of a state of India, with its own legislature, high court and an executive council of ministers headed by a Chief Minister. New Delhi is jointly administered by the federal government of India and the local government of Delhi, and is the capital of the NCT of Delhi. Delhi has been continuously inhabited since the 6th century BC.[5] Through most of its history, Delhi has served as a capital of various kingdoms and empires. It has been captured, sacked and rebuilt several times, particularly during the medieval period, and the modern Delhi is a cluster of a number of cities spread across the metropolitan region. Delhi is believed to have been the site of Indraprastha, the legendary capital of the Pandavas during the Mahabharata.[6]

Najprej je primerjava izvedena opisno – s primerjanjem njunih nemerljivih lastnosti, nato pa s pomočjo štetja tematik (ki jih predstavljajo hiperpovezave).
