The wait is now all set to end. The World Cup is all set to begin. After a grand opening ceremony (though it was criticized) now its time for action.
“ Indiyaaaa… Indiyaaa…” , “Come on Sachin, another boundary”, “What a catch man”, “Zhakaas yaar one side boss”, “Supppeerrrrbbbb..”, “Sexy bowling man”, “Score kya hua?”
If you are in India and you are not used to these words; you better get acquainted to because the World Cup 2011 is here. It kicks off today with a clash between India and Bangladesh. All of India would be now glued to their television sets cheering for their favorite teams.
Its time to pick favorites, its time to bet on your favorite players, time for pizzas, stadiums, matches, matka, satta, masti, fun and hell lot of fun.
Cricketers have suddenly become more popular than movie stars. They start flashing into various advertisements saying stuffs like “PALTI SHOT”, “HELICOPTER SHOT”. These though irritating sound amusing as now these cricketers are not just players; they are demi-gods for a billion hearts. So bearing them between your favorite programs is easier.
The sports section increases from 4 to 6 pages and 80% of it is covered by cricket news, pics and stats all related to cricket. Songs are composed, albums are released and get hummed into the colors of cricket.
Such is the madness of cricket. Even the internet giant ‘GOOGLE’ couldn’t escape it.
I am all set and I’m sure so are you. So lets pray for India and cheer for them with our hearts out.
COME ON INDIA….!!!!!!!!
