Venue:- Kingsmead, Durban
Some guy named Andrew Flintoff exchanges a few pleasantries with this Jaat, Yuvraj Singh. It was a cricket ground. The commentator said”I wouldn’t bother Yuvraj if I were you”. And his worst nightmares came true. All the six balls that Stuart Broad bowled went flying all over the ground for sixes. Everyone in the bowling team had the expression “Bhencho Flintoff… what the fuck did you say man? “. Everyone looked as if someone just masturbated on their face and all they could was wipe it off once the performance was over! Well, ladies and gentlemen( If i can call you guys that), that’s Yuvraj Singh for you. The entire nation rejoiced those six sixes and everytime he jumps and takes that flying catch.
The nation now prays for him. Indeed, the fighter that he has been, once he wins over his cancer, which he will for sure, the bowlers all over the world will rush to their Gods, bend on knees and pray. He does not even need any inspirational messages we guess, given the kind of ” Screw it, lets do it” attitude he has. But Yuvi, the nation and your fans across pray for you, were with you and will be when you come back, roaring only to smash the balls of bowlers. Ouch! Did that hurt bowlers? Well it will, it’s destined to. Let us also talk of the reasons as to why we look forward to his return to the team and more importantly, that deadly form when he can beat the shit out of Kangaroos and score 70 in just 30 balls! The beast inside you ,Dear Yuvraj, must be unleashed and must go berserk on opposition. And sometimes, we think, the balls which disappear out of the bat of this man, have more flying hours than most of the pilots in the world. They seem to be hanging in the air, as soon as they are hit, only to disappear somewhere in the crowd when they land.
Now, when we hear about cancer, it’s just another ball you must whack out of the park. Hit some more brilliant sixes, some awesome innings and give us reasons to celebrate the glory of Indian cricket. We wait for you to return to the den very soon, and silence the critics who do nothing but doubt potentials. 119 meters is just a milestone buddy, come back soon. We await more.
