handling over the patron

well i have never mentioned on my blog hopw closely i follow 2 sports : tennis and cricket. well today i have to write about to really amazing matches with a kind of similarity in their competition and results(both being the grand finales) ... well in both the cases we had older veterans of the sport competing against the new sentations... well in tennis it was a match between Roger fed-express and andre agassi .. well i was just hoping to see agassi upset fedrer coz of the form he displayed .... the last time he played like this must have been in the 2002 us open (which to me is the most amazing tournament i have ever witnessed where two legends of the game stood to the occasion to tell their critics what they were worth of) when he went down to sampras also in 4 sets.. and that was Sampras signing off on a winning note... and this time i thought it was agassis turn to sign off as a winner , given the fact that he now at this age has a fragile back and it would be difficult to repeat this performance... , as this could be his last us open ... on the other hand we had the legendary leg spinner of cricket shane warne who was up against a very talented young england side and it was him against kevin petersen on that day ... both the young players (Roger and Kevin) played at the top of their game to defy player who applied all thier experience into the play yet ended up on the loosing side... and the effort of the youngsters was well appreciated by both the wisemens of their game... we heard agassi complimenting roger as eing the best he has ever played against and similarly we saw shane warne run to kevin to congratulate him for his effort when he got dismissed .... both agassi and shane could be making their last appearances at the respective arenas and both wanted to win desperately but they were assured that they were beaten by the best of the next generation ... but yet both the older guys left their imprints on the game as warne became the highest wicket taker in ashes series with 172 wickets in 31 ashes tests and agassi was the oldest player to compete finals at flushing meadows .... hats of to both players for what they have given to their games
