We play at the Centurion tomorrow. I can already see the Bevdaas (Bangalore Royal Challengers) standing in queue salivating...no, not at the booze stupid... but at the prospect of playing the one team they can always hope to beat. The most exciting part about these couple of days is that there are 3 other teams with us in the same city. And what a line up it is. The Bublies, the Desis (Mumbai Indians), and the Bevdaas (Bangalore Royal Challengers) of course. A few days ago I had introduced you to the blooming romance between Bevdaa (Jesse Rider) and Panty Curry (Robin Uthappa). The other night, the two had a few too many. Panty, with better capacity, managed to walk through the door. Bevdaa (Jesse Rider) lost balance, tripped over, almost crash landed on 2 very scared nubile beings, eventually landed face down on the marbled floor. Security helped him up and out. It seems hes had to chat with his cricket chief about it. Apparently, the chief was under the impression that Bevdaa (Jesse Rider) was leading a spartan and pious lifestyle in SA. If only the chief had taken this blog a little more seriously, he may have saved himself the surprise. The Prince (Yuvraj Singh) is quite pissed with Appam (Sreeshanth). Hes been trying to tell Appam (Sreeshanth) to reduce his attitude and improve his bowling. I have heard that nothing pisses off Appam (Sreeshanth) more these days than someone calling him by his new name - Appam (Sreeshanth). Apparently, Big Mac (Mathew Hayden) had called him just that during change of overs the other day. And Cool Dude (Dhoni), who was batting with Mac at the time, had a huge grin on his face when he heard him say so. Prince (Yuvraj Singh) hit him exactly where it hurts by saying, Attitude toh poora masala dosa ka deta hai, aur bowling Appam (Sreeshanth) jaisa karta hai. When the boss cracks a joke, you got to roll on the floor with laughter. The whole team was in splits after that comment, although Appam (Sreeshanth) wasnt quite amused. Probably he doesnt like people calling him only by his first name. The Bevdaas (Bangalore Royal Challengers), but not the Bevdaa (Jesse Rider), were training next to us today. Their South African contingent looks strong and completely into it. I observed Deewar (Rahul Dravid) and his strong work ethic. The guy is quite intense and always seems to try so hard. Particularly visible in his running where, for all the effort he seems to put in, he hardly seems to make much progress. Almost like running on a treadmill with his small-small steps. He was hitting the ball hard though and will probably prove a point by the time this IPL ends. News from our camp is that Sticky Something (Ricky Ponting) has verbally confirmed his availability to Dildo (Shahrukh Khan) for next season depending on certain conditions. The idea is to declare him captain in a few months, and then let him build his team and support staff. Director of Operations and Coach, who till 3 weeks ago were the most important designations in our squad, will now be part of the support staff. Sticky will also oversee a local talent scout after their tour of England later this year. Nobody knows Lordie (Saurav)s role next year. But the teams not getting sold in a hurry, I can tell you this much. Some of you have expressed your surprise and shock about an ex-cricketers comment on the supposed racist remark made by Bhookha (Sir. Buchanan). Well, I am surprised that it comes as a shock to you. More than 2 weeks ago I had written about the clear and visible class system in our team. Why do you think Shakespeare (Akash Chopra) and Ganji were packed off in a hurry? Why do you think I was so upset about their departure? Why do you think that there was a near-mutiny in the ranks after that? Shakespeare (Akash Chopra) bore some brunt of it and the most offensive statement to him, by the way, wasnt spoken by Bhookha (Sir. Buchanan) himself, but someone else in the coaching staff. I think Shakespeare (Akash Chopra) is the one whos had the chat with the ex-cricketer. Speaking of Hanky Panky, Kameez Pajama (Rameez Raza), the late joinee in the commentators box, is desperately trying to make up for lost time. His first evening itself, right after his first match, he started acting fresh with Sandy (Mandira Bedi) Baddy Babe. Now Sandy (Mandira Bedi)s an old hat at this shit. And she knew exactly how to put Kameez in his own Pajama. She gave her widest smile and said, Pajama dear, I wouldnt have gone out with you even when you were a player. You have high hopes of taking me out when you are just a commentator. Skipper (McCullom) has floated the idea about dropping himself from the 11 and be replaced by Pussy. The matter currently lies in the court of the 3 Wise Phoren Babas (Brendon Mc Cullum and the coach John Buchanan). If Skipper (McCullom) stands down, then he has suggested Lordie (Saurav) to take over the reins. If Lordie (Saurav) refuses then I think Chatterjee Kaku (The Old Guy from the Ad) will have to be flown in. Our Un-think Tank has also been politely prodded by a member of the Indian Board to rest Little John (Ishant Sharma) ahead of the T20 WC. The view is that Little John (Ishant Sharma) is being sacrificed for a losing cause in our team. Fair enough, doesnt really matter to us if we lose by 8 wickets or 9. Finally, thanks for all your comments, suggestions and love. I have read almost all the comments to the last two posts. I have taken note of all your suggestions and good wishes. Aditi, Nisha, Priyanka, Nicky, Anjali, I love you too. But I cant marry you. Lets just assume that I am not the marrying type. The guy who signed in as Appam (Sreeshanth) Chutiya is hillarious. Do you think I shd rope him as a co-author of this blog? M, thanks for sharing your experience from last IPL. In fact, I think I know who you are. I remember you from last year. Although I wasnt part of the squad I was close enough. Hulo, tor pode moolo ;-). Tor comment pode khoob bhalo laglo. Cheente perechish to? Pramey, thanks for telling me that the blogs going down. But till the time friends like u keep visiting, I am sure well stay alive. Thanks for being there, man. Prat, r u by any chance an Appam (Sreeshanth) Chutiya fan? Why do u hate me so much that you want Set Max to hire me as a commentator? Hi Raveena beta. Hi Neo. Yes, you are right. I am a big liar. You are also very good looking, btw. Hi Amanpreet. I will try not to stretch this like Kyunki... Hi I_Want_this_in_T20. Any ideas how? Also, thanks a lot for voting. I can see that a lot of you have said that it hasnt been one-vote-per-person. The interesting thing is that, very unusually, after this post there was hardly any spam for almost 5-6 hours. Looks like Rahul and Makmoon were busy voting. I am overwhelmed by the response, though. I had no idea so many people visit this blog. Is there any place where they display number of visitors to a blog? If yes, please let me know. More later guys. Take care.
