iSport Poem from the iSport Cricket Paddock: iSporter Jigar Mehta gets lyrical as he celebrates India’s win against Australia.

Since a long time the wait was on for the clash of the big guns,
A series named after the kings of innumerable runs.
Losing the toss, India’s luck totally ran out,
Watson in full flow as Australians went on a total rout.
Runs started flowing, bowlers credentials were put under doubt,
Up stepped Zaheer, showed the youngsters how to go about!
Poor fielding meant the bowling efforts went in absolute vain,
Young talented keeper giving them pretty intense Paine (92)!
Chasing 428, as always we got a quick and brilliant start,
Sehwag on fire, Dravid showed the world why he is class apart!

But it was our God, who was the star of the show,
Middling the ball, looking in extremely good flow,
90’s voodoo struck again as India was dealt with a very big blow! (98)
Chasing 216 all hopes were on our great cricketing pillars
It’s India vs Australia so we are never short of thrillers!
Indeed we won the match but the heroes were the Physio & the pain-killers!
A request to Mr. Kalmadi, I know this request is pretty bold,
Please felicitate Raina for his Marathon-run with Bronze, Silver & gold!
Happy were the Aussies thinking that now they will be under a little stress,
Yes India was into the 2nd test without Gambhir, Ishant and the evergreen VVS.
Good start to the test and they felt as if they were on the very top,
With this weakened team line up, opposition will surely be a flop.
Well Mr. Ponting, helping you a bit, a hint I will drop,
This Team has a player that no one in the Universe can stop!
Every now and then the Aussie over confidence flows time and time again,
14,000th run on a day which was remarkably 10/10/10!
93 not out, Ponting tried to put him in a fix,
Gave the ball to Hauritz, who tried to play his little tricks,
But the old ‘Sachin’ was back getting his 49th with a brilliant six!
With great elegant drives huge foundation he laid
Making Hauritz realize that he still hasn’t learnt the tricks of the trade!
Double (ton) trouble for the Aussies as he added a new feather to his cap,
The Aussies were made to dance around to a Sachin-Vijay rap!
Finishing off the match, with the debutant impressing on his turn,
This meant that the Aussies were finally on the burn.
It wasn’t the security but the word ‘Sachin’ which was their main concern
Yes he did make it sure that their ashes were enclosed in their tiny little ‘URN!’
Thanks to the Men in Blue for providing super fun
Showing the whole world why we are the no. 1!
Sitting top on the ICC rankings charts was India’s favourite son,
It’s high time, ICC, Start naming this trophy after Sachin & Laxman!
