west indian midgests to pathan: you're a bowler, mon

the good news: those midgets, aka west indian bowlers (sorry, can't resists the temptation — how the mighty has fallen! and damn the cliche) have sorted out the likes of pathan...getting closer to dhoni, it seems. batting, after all, is not just about (pinch)hitting. It's perhaps more. Only, it takes a Dadar Union level bowling attack to tell us that.

the bad news: the likes of pathan (and dhoni?) will soon come back, smash around and do more telly ads here.

PS: Ajay Jadeja in this week's 'Cricket Controversies' on NDTV: "What other career option gives you the opportunity to earn Rs 12-15 crore by working 105 days a year?" Sport on, Jaddu.

PS 2: Navjot Sidhu defends 'overworked' cricketers in the same programme. Has the good Member of Parliament ever heard of the words overpaid-and-underworked? Surely rings a bell, "Sherry-sir" (as the woman hosting the show kept calling him), spening more days at TV studios doing shows than hours visiting your constituency, perhaps?

Well said. Time for the Hindi TV news' "Guru Greg" to give us a break. Why the hell does he not go back to Oz and leave OUR team in the hands of some Indian?
