Haha, nice!

After I read your post I asked myself if we even have a cricket team, but we are actually not too bad.

World Cricket League
2008: 7th place (Division Five)
2010: 2nd place (Division Eight)
2011: 3rd place (Division Seven)

Don't even know what it actually means, but 2nd place can't be too bad

[Jeggz]

[Mr Keshy]

haha, i hope i'm not shattering your hopes by saying i'm aussie all the way

Maybe I want to be a bit more alternative

I was born in India .. But people , stare at me full on, it's annoying. I'm really fair skinned, people say I look Greek. But I don't really go out there,  I just stay home watch curry dramas. Lol. 

Proud to be Indian

i am also very proud to be of curry descent! although, some people have said I look turkish/Italian/middle eastern hahah! i havent gotten greek, but im close i suppose (geographically speaking)! hahaha i get some dirty stares sometimes, but ive gotten used to it.

Lol. But it's annoying especially for girls. All the curry aunties start listing all the guys you can marry. Lol.
 And it's weird , because in Australia it's normal for a guy and a girl to be friends, but  in India it's like " omgg".

Have any of you guys watched dabanng 2??

Tell me about it. Nah, it's a matter of culture. In India and conservative Sri Lanka (my mum is quite conservative, for instance), the idea of guys and girls being friends is a little unorthodox - my mum doesn't mind me being friends with girls though. But with these people the idea is that courtship is different - it's not dating (well, dating for the sake of dating really), it's a marriage proposal. So if a guy and a girl get together in that culture, the immediate thought is marriage. It's just their way of thinking.
