Rocking the house

While on TV the stadium presents a deserted look, but once you get there, as you get out of the car, you can hear the crowd roaring and you know something is up. As you get to the stands, you can see that the cameramen aren’t doing justice to the crowd. Approximately 4000-5000 in number the crowd was in festive mood, cheering every ball bowled, booing the dot balls, armed with the plastic bottles and horns, thumping away like it was a Pakistan vs. India ODI instead of the Hyd and Abt teams playing Twenty20. This was all during a weeknight and the tournament still in the first round. After watching such enthusiasm I am sure that once the semi finals and finals roll in, we can expect a near sell out at NSK.
