The Return of Saurav Ganguly

Many Indians felt strongly about dropping of India's former cricket captain Saurav Ganguly. Cricket is a religion in India and his return deserves a poetic expression

Many people have felt strongly
About Saurav being dropped wrongly
Let us hope that Ganguly
Is able to face shoaib with as much dexterity as he has faced many a googly
Let us hope that the prnice of Kolkatta comes up with a performance that can be deemed kingly
And make his detractors look ugly
Then all India and not just hoogly(Kolkatta)
Will once again respond to him overwhelmingly
He has off the field grace too, on the ground sometimes a captain has to be Jungly
For the simple reason that most ppl have to be pushed and rarely perform willingly
The sledging Australians or a Shoaib Akhtar can hardly be encountered lovingly
Proportionate Aggression is welcome by anyone whether any other Indian or a Bengali

I am not a baseball or football fan, except to play. How one's world can be wrapped up in a game like cricket, is beyond me, except as a metaphor for life. Maybe that's it--the games people play.

well expressed, though as a Scots person, cricket is not my cup of tea )more football) but I can appreciate sporting skill in most fields, and great sportsmanship is to be applauded.
