Windies triangular tournament win musings on Dhoni…

· Dhoni wins a tournament… yawn… stays till the end… yawn… finishes it off with a 6… yawn…

· Miandad’s last ball sixer shattered India.
India prayed and prayed for a counter.
And lo behold! There was Dhoni!

· Overheard…
Dhoni: Honey, I have just won the…
Sakshi: Bas, bas, bore mat kar… ghar main bahut kaam pada hai… waise bhi ab trophies ke liye koi jagah nahin bachi hai… achcha hua Zimbabwe tour miss kar raha hai…

· That mid-1980s feeling…
India world champions. Low 202 run target in final. Still last over finish. Top scorer 58(89). 1 attacking opener, 1 slow one. All-rounder champ Ravi in team. No Sachin factor. Captain Sixer.

· How to rest an overworked Dhoni…
1. Get Karthik to keep stumps.
2. Let Mahi come 9 down.
3. Phir bhi jeet pakki hai!

· Taking a break from this Rahul vs Modi debate, I’m rooting for Dhoni as Prime Minister.

· Won’t be surprised if Jayawardene and Sangakkara retire from India matches to concentrate on other teams.

Indian cricket musings…

· The Revenge Series began after we won the 2011 WC.
Basically that means every team is taking revenge against us after that.

· Rohit Sharma is the only cricketer who’s Past is Continuously forgotten, Present is always Tense, but Future is always Perfect.

· Indo-Pak match fixed?
Chhodo yaar, life itself is fixed.
Haven’t you heard of fate?

· Tim Allen: I act in a TV show called Last Man Standing. It’s on Star World.
MS Dhoni: I act in a reality show called Last Man Standing. It’s on Star Cricket.

· BCCI: Dhoni hamara sukh-dukh ka saathi hai.
Sukh bahut dekh liya, ab dukh bhi jhelte hai.

· “Enough money to last 7 generations” quote remixed…
BCCI: Usne hamare liye itna paisa kamaya ki ab woh saat saal tak khel sakta hai.

· What may be happening…
Players: Seniors problem.
Seniors: Captain problem.
Captain: Coach problem.
Coach. Hands tied. BCCI problem.
BCCI: Problem? No financial problem!

· More than Revenge Series, the BCCI should start organizing Retirement Series.

Saare Bharatiyo ka bojh hum uthate hain…

Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni has had enough and he has come out with a theme song to define his fatigue.
Please sing to the tune of Saari duniya ka bojh hum uthate hain from the Amitabh Bachchan movie Coolie

Saare Bharatiyo ka bojh hum uthate hain,
Saare Bharatiyo ka bojh hum uthate hain,
Players aate hain, players jaate hain,
Hum yahin pe wicket ke peeche khade rahe jaate hain.

Chaar kaptaano ka kaam hai, ek ka daam hai,
Khoon mat peejiye aur thoda rest deejiye,
Ek series karo kam,
Hum khuda ki kasam,
Badi mehnat se crore-o kamaate hain,
Saare Bharatiyo ka bojh hum uthate hain.

Thoda paani piya field pe yaad rab ko kiya,
Jeet ki bhookh bhi mit gayi, trophies ki pyaas bhi bujh gayi,
Kaam har haal main, naam phir bhi badnaam hai,
Ek do din ki chhutti saal main milti hai,
Saare Bharatiyo ka bojh hum uthate hain.

Jeena mushkil to hai apna bhi dil to hai,
Dil main armaan hai, hum bhi insaan hai,
Jab haarte hain, ghussa pesh karte hain sab,
Khoon peete hain aur bahut rote hai,
Saare Bharatiyo ka bojh hum uthate hain…

(Original Song: Saari duniya ka bojh hum uthate hain.
Movie: Coolie.
Year: 1983)
