Good poem from mousourik !!!!!!
I think we are going to enjoy one of the best contest in IPL today. Jaysuriya and Shoaib both are in good form – going to be an interesting battle.
Comeooooooooooooon KKR.

Shoaib...Shoaib...Shoaib...
Shoaib...Shoaib...Shoaib...
Shoaib...Shoaib...Shoaib...
Shoaib...Shoaib...Shoaib...

Hmmmmm….. just a miracle what we need today. Unanticipated …. just unanticipated against such an average (yes I know about those few overs of Pollock ) bowling side. Well, nothing is impossible – hey, one hattrick from Shoaib and another one from Ishant will do it.

Comeoooooooooon KKR , let them know that even 67 is not that easy against us.

For lesser fans, I would like to rewind to the March 31st 2003, the match where Shoaib was taken off the attack after one over itself..

Even if he goes for 0 or even -100, he brings joy to many a lives and that is most important thing in todays world...

He is entertaining for around 20 years, more often than not he has been the light at the end of the tunnel, whatever his success or failures be. Give me name of one cricketer current or past (including Sir Don himself), who has record good enough to comment on him...

Right ……. If we consider the cricketer then there is no comparison. We cannot compare Sachin and Shoaib that we all know. Hats off to Sachin – Saurav – Rahul & Kumble for their contribution in Indian cricket (not less than Kapil or Gavaskar) but IPL is different game altogether. Entertainment, that’s the main thing and to Jaysurya today.

Yeah … where is Brishti ? Brishti, don’t worry it was not the last match and don’t forget we are Knights…. We’ll be back - we will definitely be back to take revenge .

somanth:
sad, but nay - i havent given up hope...
67??? eesshhh!
the fact is, our batting line-up is ? i have no idea what combination ganguly can/will come up with... but it had better be quick, and it had better click!

much appreciated your response to shashank, somnath! -
and to jayasurya:


shashank: you misunderstand yet again.
getting sachin out and being joyous, is not because we dislike the lil master, its because we respect him.

will be sporadic over here at IM - but i will be watching the match and taking KKR upto them semi-finals... thats for sure!

shubho ratri [ good nite all ye IMers ]

Yeah, you are right. Once upon a time there was a great batsman….. Saurav who used to score RUNS.

Do you have any doubt !!!! Hey, we are going to win……
149 – not a big total once again by KKR but enough, just enough to conclude Chennai team. Agree with me?

Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket …. Wicket ….....

No no…. I am Somnath – there is no doubt about it. But just cannot accept that absolutely unnecessary attempt in that over. May be weather factor was there in Saurav’s mind and tried to accelerate run rate ………… still, end of the day people will ask you about the result. Last two matches? Was it a responsible innings ?
