ભાઈ કેટલી વાર આ મેચ વિષે લખશો? અત્યાર સુધીમાં બે દિવસમાં તો ત્રણ વાર અલગ અલગ રીતે આ સમાચાર લખી ચુક્યા છો. અમને ખબર પડી ગઈ કે મેચની બધી જ ટીકીટો વેચાઈ ગઈ છે (ઇન્ડિયામાં કઈ ક્રિકેટ મેચોમાં સોલ્ડ આઉટ સ્ટેડીયમ નથી હોતા એ કહો) એટલે હવે એક ના એક સમાચાર અલગ અલગ રીતે લખવાનું બંધ કરો. અમે એ પણ જાણી લીધું કે આ ગ્રાઉન્ડ પર ઇન્ડિયા પાંચ મેચ જીત્યું છે તો હવે બસ કરો.

Its a good thing that Modi is actively taking interest in GCA’s administration.
Lets hope that under his leadership and vision the GCA is also able to see the fruits of accelerated development.
It would be great if GCA is able to develop international standards in other stadiums in other cities of Gujarat, namely Surat. Its a shame that Surat being the second largest city of Gujarat do not have an international class cricket stadium.
