DADA s back!!!.... but as 'DADU'

I was watchin the third n final test at the oval till 15 min bk on star and Saurav Ganguly was then battin on 30 odd. i was tempted to post this 'cos of an incident that happened then. Ganguly, i must admit, howmuchever i like him, is jus a shadow of what he used to be. it takes him ages to score his runs... as if the Chappel episode has made him ignorant of the fact that batsmen shud have some regard for their strike rates.
newaz... Ganguly was battin wid a strike rate of 37.75 and i guess it's high time we shud start callin him "DADU" n not "DADA"!!! He suddenly struck Anderson for a four thru point that was reminiscent of our dada of the past n i jus started to feel that there might be a turn around nw. next over he came down the pitch n whacked Monty for a huuuuugeeeeeee six over long on and that was Saurav Ganguly at his best!!! i was wondering hw can sm players be so neat and elegant in their strokeplay.... n then the commentator said, durin the replay, " What an astonishing and effoertless shot! I guess only Lara can play that shot better than Saurav in world cricket"... ... ... ... well, i jus got an update from cricinfo that Ganguly s out for 37. at least he managed to make a definite point durin his stay at the crease.. that.. Lara s a genius.
whoops!!! sorry if u were expectin smthin else frm this post.. :) good nyt.

may GOD bless ICL.....
Amen..
