Sehwag Q &A

by Rohit

Q. How does Sehwag ‘milk’ the spinners?

A. He dumps them over cow corner.

Q. When a spinner comes on, Gambhir askes Sehwag ‘Let’s keep rotating?’ Sehwag nods vigorously. What does he do?

A. He slogs the spinner out of the attack. He assumes Gambhir wants him to rotate the bowlers.

Q. Why is the Sri Lankan squad planning to lodge a formal complaint?

A. They are certain the balls used were of poor quality. They plan to use Sehwag’s testimony which goes, ‘I only hit bad balls today’

Q. Which cricket manual consists of a single page?

A. ‘Sehwag’s introduction to battting’. The page reads, ‘See ball, hit ball. Don’t see ball yet? Wait for the ball boys to get it back. Then hit it’ There’s also a footnote, ‘Don’t forget to thank Sachin’

Q. What was the one positive of Sehwag getting out before Dravid?

A. That he didn’t get to bat with Tendulkar. Otherwise the whole innings would have been dedicated to ’Tendulkar’s advice of waiting for the bad balls’

Q. How many sane people thought Dilshan was the next Sehwag before the Brabourne test?

A. 780

Q. How many still think so?

A. 3 including Dilshan himself who is wavering. The other two are Sri Lankan fishermen who have been stranded at sea for the past two days...

Q. What is Sehwag's favourite dessert?

A. Triple layer chocolate cake. His motto in life is 'Why settle for one when you can have three?'

Any suggestions?

Time for some sane, classical, orthodox, conventional cricket

by K

Looking forward to some sane, classical, orthodox, conventional cricketing action after a long time on Indian soil when Sri Lanka take on India in a Test series. Lot at stake - India looking to keep it's record intact of never losing a Test on home soil against Sri Lanka, India's hurt pride after series loss to Aus, Sri Lanka looking to break Test jinx in India.

It's your stage VVS and Jammy (Dravid). Show the full face of the bat, shoulder arms, play the forward defensive, show these slam-bang kids how to play a marathon innings and grind it out.

I'm dying to see two teams fight it out in their whites after a loooong time. After all I'm a true lover of the game and not a recent convert.
