thank god they changed the color
team india changed its color today at a glittering event held in mumbai...
there have been mixed reactions about the change in color...some question the reasons behind it...some like...some dislike...
..and some fear that it can bring bad luck to an otherwise successful team india, sighting the example of how oz is going down the drain since they changed the color of their jerseys...
but we @ BCC! are happy...
now tomorrow if sachin won't fire...
yuvraj again starts dancing to the tune of spinners...
sehwag forgets his newly found responsibility after attaining fatherhood...
gautam the 'city' gambhir becomes gautam the 'village' against pace bowlers...
punter starts sending ishant's deliveries out of stadium even in sleep walk mode...'
zahir starts liking 'jelly beans'....
...and dhoni starts leading from the front with gloves too (haddin way)...
you know whom to blame...
yess it's the COLOR of jersey, stupid!
after the recent initiative of 'thank you sachin' campaign...the need of we hate [dash] was being felt very strongly...
so thank god (or BCCI?) they have changed the color...now we can say, very proudly, after every misadventure of team india or team 'indians'...
WE HATE the COLOR!!

Check out the new Harsha Bhogle in the background with a full head of hair!
ReplyDeleteWho is he trying to fool? Yuck!
Yuck from me too!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they mixed the colors used by the Sri Lankan and English cricket teams... I don't want no damn Paul Mahroof instead of Irfan Pathan, Graeme Mendis instead of Bhajji, Kumar Prior instead of Dhoni or Kevin Jayasuriya instead of Sachin. Sorry but that color combo looks totally off to me. Worrying days ahead.
ReplyDeleteYuck!
ReplyDeleteHorrible.
ReplyDeletebarely got used to that last lot of drab blues, now this - test cricket's gonna be divided into dark green and deep blue.

ReplyDeleteThere should be some changes going on in the dresses..but it should be some where in brighter tone (this is my personal thought)..let see what new would be with the new dress....
Haa haaa! Trying to copy Sri Lankan coloros right? Not the best timing though.
