Dear Manmohan… idea for your first Tweet… 140 Zeroes… since you are a zero loss government…

∙ The PM has just completed a Thousand Tweets.
The only reason Twitter or anyone else hasn’t noticed is because all those Tweets were of Zero characters each, complying fully with his offline image.

∙ Why hasn’t Manmohan Singh Tweeted anything yet?
Because he was told that Twitter allows only 140 characters.
He’s making that list right now…
Character 1: Sonia, Character 2: Rahul, Character 3…

∙ Why is Manmohan Singh’s Twitter account like James Bond? Because it also has a 00 (double zero) in front of it: 0 (Tweets) 0 (Following).

SRK: My Name is Khan!

Shirish: Some Tees Maar Khan!

SRK: Chak De! Ek chaanta doonga rakh ke!

Shirish: Joker ban ke raha gaya hu...

∙ Right now Shirish Kunder is thinking…
Agar main ek FIR file kar du, to it will become…
Ek mulk ki police SRK ka intezar kar rahi hai…
SRK ko pakadna mumkin hi nahi, aasan hoga…

So Twitter has decided to block certain Tweets if required by law.

Many users are seething at this censorship.

Please sing to the tune of Dost dost na raha from Sangam…

Tweet Tweet na raha, censor censor ho gaya,
Cyberspace hamain tera, aitbaar na raha, aitbaar na raha….

Keemti Tweets mere apne dil ki, gaya tha jisko saunp kar,
Woh mere networking site tum hi the, tumhi to the,
Jo Internet ki raah me bane the mere hamsafar,
Woh mere networking site tum hi the, tumhi to the,
Saare bhed khul gaye, raazdaar na raha,
Cyberspace hamain tera, aitbaar na raha, aitbaar na raha….
Tweet Tweet na raha…

(Original Song: Dost dost na raha.
Film: Sangam.
Year: 1964)

Overheard…
VVS to SRT/Dravid: Bas Sri Lanka tour nikaal lo bhai logon… next foreign pitch tour is at the very end of 2013. We can easily play till then!
Yuvi-Raina-Rohit: Looks like we will be the “Allegedly Next Big 3” to retire from Tests and not them!
Sehwag: And I actually thought I could bat up the order!
BCCI: The only constant is (we will not) change.

∙ History first repeats itself as a tragedy (England tour) and then as a farce (Australia tour).

∙ Happy Republic Day!
However, no Independence Day from the farce of Indian batting on foreign pitches.

∙ Theme song of the Indian batting is Hum Saath Saath Hai…
They hit form together and collapse together.

Indian batsmen are tigers on Indian Test pitches and lambs abroad. Their theme song…

Please sing to the tune of I love my India from the movie Pardes…

London dekha, Melbourne dekha,
London dekha, Melbourne dekha,
Aur dekha Birmingham,
Oval dekha, Sydney dekha,
Sab dekha meri jaan,
Saare jag main kahin nahin hai doosra Pitch-e-Hindustan,
Doosra Pitch-e-Hindustan,
Doosra Pitch-e-Hindustan.

Ye duniya ek uljhan,
Ye duniya ek uljhan,
Ulhano ke uljhan main Team India,
Ye mera Team India,
Ye mera Team India,
I love my pitches of India,
I love my pitches of India.

Jab chheda stumps ko kisi ne,
Jhoom ke doosra wicket bhi gira,
Aag lagi jaise pitch main ab,
Deepak raag sunaaya pacers ne,
Saare wicket-o ka sangam bane opposition ki mala,
Hum apne Bhagwaan ko bhi kehate hain beshatak wala,
Beshatak wala,
Beshatak wala.

Ye mera Team India,
I love my pitches of India,
Ye mera Team India,
I love my pitches of India.

(Original song: I love my India.
Film: Pardes.
Year: 1997.)

∙ Ricky Taunting India. Michael Clarke Kent (a.k.a Superman). Rahul “The Gate” Dravid. 99dulkar. Vir”Under” Sehwag. Dhakkan Fletcher. Kris SriCan’t. B (Don’t) See (Don’t) See I.

∙ The BCCI logic: Rohit Sharma is such a waste player! Forget scoring runs, he couldn’t even play a Test match! Drop him next time!

∙ After the 0-4 debacle in England the only person to be sacked was Harsha Bhogle from the anchor’s chair.
Who will they sack after 0-4 in Australia?

∙ Law of diminishing returns…
Test No. 1 ranking: Gone in 600 days.
Indian innings: Gone in 60 overs.
Opening partnership: Gone in 60 balls.
Indian Batsman: Gone in 60 seconds.

∙ Overheard…
Speaker: Can you deny the genocide the English committed on us?
Listener: No!
Speaker: Can you deny the genocide the Australians committed on us?
Listener: Eh??? Aussies in our freedom struggle?
Second Listener: He’s actually talking about cricket…

∙ If Cricket is our Religion, then the Australian tour is Blasphemy.
