In spite of all the 'funny' smells about IPL, I still think this 'hit
& giggle' is a great concept - the actual cricket game not the
shenanigans.
With CSK winning IPL, the local boys have as usual been creative -
as they are always. Here is the SMS I received today eve - its perhaps 'haiku' but joined together as a poem:
One needs a little bit of knowledge of Tamil & Hindi to understand it.
(though I tried to translate into English without losing impact, there are some words, which don't translate well)
CSK - the team
---------------------------
One’s favourite is ‘paani-poori’,
One man army is Dhoni
Lion lives in a Den
Our own lion is Hayden
Mother's father is 'nana'
best fielder is Raina
Veggies favourite is 'kathri' (brinjal)
middle order favourite is Badri
Song's mixer is DJ(jay)
shot's mixer is Vijay
DTS sound is Dolby
all-rounder is Albie
For hot spice is Ginger
fast bowling is Bollinger
Super bikes is Ducati
super spinner is Jakati
Tamarind is 'Imli'
top spinner is Murli
Cricketers pray for a Win
CSK prey with Ashwin
Cricket's own is Fair play
CSK play only that Way
Loose-them is 'Bundle-kar’
Losing team is Tendular’s
