Indian Whites. Is it possible??

Guys, this is Binnu who's starting a career based story. I'll update it regularly though and the main aim of the player with which I'm playing is to represent India in whites.

You may get a doubt that already I have a team Diary running. But ATM, I need to write a career based story for now. Else, my mind will dominate my mind when I go to study my mind always thinks off a Career based story. To fix that, I'm here writing.

BTW, who the hell is Mr. Prithvi Raj Chiyyodu:sarcasm?? Is he a good person? What is his gameplay?? What does he actually play??.
You'll come to now about him when you read the story.

Chapter 1- The luckiest day
After a long Ranji trophy season for Hyderabad, I returned home on 23rd of December.
Just got bored as Ranji Trophy is a three month long and boring tournament and even a pretty unsuccessful one for Hyderabad.
Still, the quarterfinals were going on but it was end of our season as we were eliminated.
Then, I returned home after 3 months. I missed my mom, dad, everyone at most.
Before Ranji, I played Indian Premier League in South Africa for the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
I played 7 matches of he 16 games which included the most crucial final.
Then, I was selected for the Airtel Champions League, for which I played only 1 game against Delhi Daredevils.
But ATM, I was bored of Cricket after I played Ranji Trophy.
The most disappointing one was team Hyderabad as they continued their streak of losing all the home matches on Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.
Then, I received a mail from Quantas, and they said that they were sending me some brochure of their company in a courier, for which I was waiting.

After a day, a post man walked and called me.
I took the courier and signed on it and thought that it was one being sent by Quantas.
But..!! OMG..!!
My mind thought,"WTF is this..!! You getting a call letter from Australian Domestic side??"

I was signed up by New South Wales Speedblitz Blues..!!
Then I said all my family members and we celebrated the moment a bit.

We even informed our relatives and they wished me good luck.

When I read the total cover, I learnt that I was mailed the ticket, with which I needed to go to Australia.
Soon, I opened my mail and it was on 24th December, 2009, 17:00 IST, the flight was scheduled.
I had to report by 16:00 IST and ATM, it was 08:00.
I got prepared and informed my local club coach (Mr Satyanarayana), Hyderabad CA (Venkatapathy Raju) coach, RCB coach (Ray Jennings) by telephone. They all wished me good luck and finally reached airport by 15:50 IST.
Only 10 minutes and even the Hyderabad Cricket Association coach even came up there.

And I had to spend those 10 minutes with Hyderabad CA coach.
He said me that the pitch on which I was going to play most of the matches was Sydney Cricket Ground, on which VVS Laxman has huge records, which you've to keep up.
Finally, I walked through the door and I was taken to my plane in a drinks cart type thingy.
And then, I flied to Australia............:banana2:banana2:banana2
What will be my Fate in Australia......??

Me in Australia
Well, after 11 hours I started flying, the Plane officials announced that the plane will be landing at Sydney Airport after 1/2 an hour.
I was sleeping :sleep but a passenger besides me, Mr. Biggylicious even was to get down at Sydney.
He woke up me and then, I took some breakfast and the plane officials announced to fasten our seat belts, which we did and finally..!! Landed at Sydney..!!

I kept walking and I had a person from NSW Cricket Board holding a playcard with my name.
I din't observe him but he himself came to me.
He drove me directly to my Hotel room Named Oaks Goldsbrough Apartments. It was very near the Opera House.
He said me to fresh up and give him a call so that he'll drive me to the actual place.
I got freshed up in 20 minutes, and then, reported him.
He said that I'll be getting a room near SCG, this was appointed for 2 hours.
He took me to Sydney Cricket Ground and just drove over
I asked him where was the reporting place.
He Replied.."ANZ Stadium, Sir."
For an instance, I was surprised that I forgot bout that ground, in which we were all set to practice as SCG is getting prepared for the opening ceremony.
Then a we passed a gate of ANZ stadium and the car stopped.
He got down and guided me to the New South Wales Cricket Board and I met the Coach Mr. Matthew Mott.
He received me and took me to the NSW CB secretary.
He just gave me some papers, which I briefly read.
Then Signed on it.:banana2
It read that I'll be paid $1500 USD for this season.:banana2
After I signed in, my assistant took me to the room, in which I was to live.
And he said that I was to share the room with a local newbie player.
My assistant even din't knew the name as he was waiting for me, when NSW alloted rooms.
My room number was 49.
I went there and knocked the door.
To my amazement, it was BRENDON HEDGER, who opened the door.
We both knew each other through a forum called Planetcricket.
I got settled there a bit.
We were to go out and have a practice session.
I went down and I saw Brett Lee practicing.
I went to him and spoke for sometime till out coach came.
Our coach came along with Nathan Hauritz, Nathan Bracken and Simon Katich.
He introduced me to the team and I went and had a shake hand with every player:friends.
Then, after that, he announced," Guys, Simon Katich will be on his National Duty for the total T20 season. So, we'll miss him. And the replacement captain for him will be Nathan Hauritz.
Everyone clapped. I even did.
We were all set to have some hardcore practice.
I was given 70 overs old ball and was asked to bowl to David Warner.
I bowled him decently and I was shocked to see Glenn McGrath there at the practice camp.
I bowled him for 6 overs and then took some rest.
I went to McGrath, introduced myself and asked what was my performance.
He said, "You'll be a cool all rounder if you concentrate a bit on the line you bowl.
The way I see you, you're bowling at a raw pace, but you're lagging at the line."
Mott displayed my bowling in Hawk Eye in the LED screen.
I was all set to have my favorite profession, BATTING.
I smashed Hauritz for some top class boundaries and then, for a huge one.
I batted for around 1/2 an hour and then, went to have some lunch, where we discussed bout the strategy.
Dominic Thronley arrived and I was having some fielding practice and then, sat down on a dug out with coach Mr. Mott discussing with Hauritz.
Then, Dwayne Smith even arrived later that day.

[hedger_14]

Awesome, Nathan Hauritz appointed as captain. He deserved it. Anyway, nice that you are introducing some members. Has Biggy got anything to do with this story or he is just some random person on the plane. And thanks for having me in your story as well.
