Rumours and all

It's close to 5 pm here. The first match just got over. Mumbai Indians played like champs and won. But there's all sorts of tension in our hotel. My roomie tells me that Lord Almighty may not get selected in the 11. And as I went to confirm this with our opening bowler, my state-mate and long-time friend, he says that Lord Almighty has decided to return to India. I don't know what to believe and what not to. And if the team's 16th man like me can get affected by this, I am sure the others are getting severely affected. What was Winnie Dildo thinking before ditching his skipper in favour of the coach. A coach who nobody other than this guy believes in. The day we had landed in SA, I was sitting at the bar with my teammate, the young former India player who will remain a former India player, the Sheikh of Tweak was also at the bar counter. He was chatting up one giggly, sexy twenty-something. And as a way to impress her, he was cracking jokes on our Phoren coach (someone he had played under a few yrs ago). In fact, he even said that if our coach had done a better job of picking up the balls after nets, they would have won the Ashes a few yrs ago. (Apparently, their main bowler - called a sparrow or parrot or something - slipped on a ball during nets, injured his ankle and flew back).

Anyway, back to our team. It seems Lord Almighty has some deciding to do. And so do our Phoren Babas. As I speak, the Bevdaa Team has elected to bat against Big Sister's team. I think the Bevdaa Team owner has played a master trick. He has about 6 bevdaas in his side. And this time he is not serving free beer. It seems the latest bevdaa is going to spend all his IPL money on his owner's beer.

Back to our team...again... as I write this, 3 of our players - our backup keeper, our frontline bowler, and our former Indian player - are in Lord Almighty's room. And our Phoren Baba duo has been joined by our Calypso King in one room. I wonder what they might be discussing! We shall know all about it tomorrow morning at breakfast. And guess who will be the first to report on it...He he he...he he he... he.. hehehe.....
